Now, Robocchio says the game is advantage. Well, technically it is, 100.07%. But pretty thin. But Robocchio has told us for years that you can't win on these positive games. So why did he go against everything he has stood for for 20 years and play this game? I personally don't think he did but a pic of the W2-G would sure rub our noses in it.

The story as presented:

1) Rob, who has spent thousands of posts claiming his systems are the way to play, has not played high stakes video poker for a very long time.
2) Rob decides one day to plunk down a 20K investment to take a shot at a marginally positive video poker game after not playing at these stakes for a long time.
3) Rob decides, for some reason, to not use his strategies as laid out in thousands of posts across many forums. He decides it's "recreational" time as he plunks down the 20K. Therefore he does not start at $1 or $2 stakes.
4) Rob hits the four aces in a brief period of time (at $500 a spin, 20K's not lasting too long), thereby making a neat 200K profit.
5) Rob takes his winnings in cash. There's no check to photograph, although there should be one helluva W2G. Also no pic of the cash or Rob's smiling face with the jackpot. Of course, the casino in question decided they wouldn't use Rob's posing with the check/cash as advertising because what casino does that?

I'm sure blackhole and coach belly are chomping at the bit to ask all of the appropriate questions.

Hey coach, why don't YOU ask Rob if he knows the Jerry Logan who posted on lvadvice.com? That should clarify things, eh?
Red, you need to get over it. It's clear you're going to be forever furious over my hitting this. But this is just advice. I'm enjoying your P-A-I-N....especially since you're undoubtedly "chomping at the bit" holding back soliciting me again to help finance your sportsbetting habit.

I've NEVER had any casino take my picture taken with any jackpot. Most ask, and a savvy player just says no.

Understandable that you're bothered by the fact that I hit this thing in maybe 15 minutes of play, which included waiting for the first $1500 "jackpot" to be paid separately and setting up of the machine W2G attendant. It certainly WAS fast, efficient work. If this still bothers you, I suggest you try telling yourself what jbjb always tells himself when it comes to Alan & myself's big wins as a way to deal with the very unsettling dumbfoundedness: POST THAT YOU KNOW I LOST ALL OF IT AND MORE BEFORE HITTING IT--OR WILL EVENTUALLY! He gets instant relief from that lie every time. The only problem is, this time he got exposed once again as just another armchair AP when he erroneously said it was a -EV game I was playing. Combine that with his lack of knowledge about free play and what do you have??

I see you're coyly still trying to get a location on the casino. Not gonna happen, even if you're one of these "sleuths". Right now I believe this is MY play, except for a few big-playing tourists that may happen upon it. I've taken steps to keep it private, at least until I go in to play it again with another $20k for another minimum $3k stop-play profit. We'll be here at our first RV park N. of the Phx. area for a few weeks and I plan on shooting over to LV soon. Yes I'll give a report.

This lvadvice forum you're all excited about? I couldn't find anything about the banning of "JL" for faking a jackpot or whatever you said. What year was it?
