Gambling Forums ... WHY?

[Rob.Singer]

I wish one of these mathematicians who swear by the math being the facts of life, could figure out the odds of a person getting educated and developing a successful career with a solid future when compared to accomplishing the same with just gambling of any kind.

This right here may explain your difficulties. This AP shit is not necessarily the way people see to maximizing their money in life. Having a career has a lot of assorted costs. One of those costs is having to deal with people such as yourself. This in itself makes it pretty much something you can't comprehend. Having a career means you have to behave and go by some set of rules. These rules come from exactly where modern society all agrees with itself. You have one life though, and I'd rather do something else. You want to meet successful gamblers? I can take you to a local pokerroom and point out the pros. They come and go, a few stick with it. Some figure $15 an hour isn't worth the swings. Others get tired of making $50+/hour. Outside of maybe 5 guys in town none of these gamblers live a life I'd consider worth ever bragging about. All those guys put in far more hours than me. It isn't about the money though, it is about doing what you want. "get educated". Epic. If I was to brag on my degree, you'd just call me a liar. I don't like to behave. I like to be able to stay up and drink and play cards or do what have you. I work too though, but it is always on my terms. You don't seem to get any of this. You have a strange entitlement expecting people to prove things to you. (yes, some of them may be bs artists like Rob Singer, deal with it.) You also seem to be so simple that you see one's networth as the sole indicator of one's success in life and fail to consider what they had to spend their life on to get those networth figures.


Your bitterness is some exceptional. Your choice of name is fitting.

You and that moron Ex-Ap are so agitated by other people's opinions. All that BH is saying is that most of the self-annointed AP's around here come off as they can do no wrong and see it as the ability to lead unmatched lives because of it. But everyone knows, including you two, that it's far easier to make far more money in the working world. And you'll go around believing anyone who pops on to any gambling forum who says they're an AP, yet if someone claims they made a fortune or did well in the business world while even slightly questioning any AP claims, you guys have a tantrum of "it's all bs". He chooses not to believe AP's on forums. So what. Most people on forums don't believe me. It doesn't change one thing. Get over it.

Watching ex-ap slobber over all these supposed six figure ap's immediately sticks out like a sore thumb. Sure he can say "these guys know their stuff and can spot a play a mile away...and they TOLD me that they made a bundle hammering the hell out of them". Big whoop--anyone can tell you anything. And even if they're driving high priced cars it means nothing. Being an AP does not guarantee anyone anything. I failed at it for 6 years, Shack failed at the machines and maybe other games, and ANYBODY can fail at it. Of course some don't. But you have no idea who they are.

Wise up.
