Las Vegas GF Chat Room

Liars - Saturday Night Live - YouTube

Yes, everyone is envious of the premium liquor pours.

Personally, I love the fact that during all the years Rob owned the Newell and was defending his net worth, he posted photos of old CB equipment, a couple of guns, and nary a Newell pic.

 

Of course the who doesn't rate for a hotdog's worth of comps and his sidekick chime in on The Great MDawg.

 

I haven't really followed the WoV drama over MDawg, Shack's "acceptance?" of him and/or his claims, and maybe the witnessing of his winning? All I've been lucky enuf to see has been kew's being crushed by Shack just because Shack seems not to align himself with kew's constant whining about MDawg. The best analogy I can envision is, it would be something like if Dan Druff refused to outright claim, on VCT, that my VP winning was a lie. Kew, in that case, would go ballistic, for it would be more than he could bear. That point was poignantly amplified when Dan had the opportunity to verify the VP win the squad just couldn't cope with, but as usual with these people, when shit got real, they bail.

So kew has appointed himself as the internet forums' Claims-Marshall in addition to his role as always trying to keep his lies straight about his concocted forum life? Imagine being a loser such as this! A brand new method of self-torture.

Either way, Dan is no Shack. Shack is a well-known actuary, gaming math expert, commercial internet gaming genius, and successful businessman. Well-respected, well-travelled, and basically very well liked in his community. Dan? Ha! Everybody on VCT bashes him for one thing or another. He's also an online poker player--most of whom are addicts beyond help--who sometimes solicits contributions from others when he plays live in the WSOP? I MUST BE A KNUCKLEHEAD FOR OFFERING UP THE "COMPARISON" ABOVE.

Case rested.

 

Correct Boz. These stories always contain multiple red flags. In this case non more glaring than the NDA involving Shackleford. Shame on Shackleford for agreeing to that in the first place and even bigger shame for continuing to allow Mdawg to "use" him as verification like this.

A second red flag was Mdawg privately calling for the suspension and removal of anyone challenging or even expressing that they didn't believe this "claims". Anyone posting any kind of claim such as this has to be able to accept and answer any legitimate challenges and concerns. I always have been able and willing to and so has any other real players and AP's, without running to the administrator and requesting that someone be removed or suspended "because they don't believe me". Major Red Flag!

Related to that is the attempts to discredit and vilify anyone that does pose legitimate concerns or challenges to the "story". This is a tactic that both Mdawg and Singer use. They can't answer legitimate challenges or questions, so they attack, usually on a personal level having nothing to do with anything.

And finally, there is the ever-changing aspects of the story. Real players and AP's their story is consistent throughout the years. And for good reason. It is the truth. When a guy starts changing major peices of his story as Singer and Mdawg have both done, again...Major Red Flag!

Anyone remember the 7 figure "mansion"? when I even brought up the 7-figure mansion in context of why he needed all the comped suites when he claimed to have purchase a 7 figure mansion, I was suspended. Mdawg couldn't answer, so he yet again cried to Shackleford to remove the legitimate challenge or question.

The post that best sums up this whole story was made by lilredrooster today: This thread is a really long story about a man who is very deeply in love with himself.

Of course, in usual fashion, the great Mdawg cried to Shackleford who has now suspended lilredrooster.

The biggest joke of this whole story isn't the sham of a fantasy that Mdawg has portrayed for years now, it is the cover-up and allowing of it by Shackleford.

 

mcap on the UNKewl one: You’re right, the story isn’t about Mdawg (or the wizard for that matter), it’s about YOU, always about someone once upon a time wronged you for something petty as fuck you’re seemingly incapable of moving past, it’s ALWAYS been primarily about you.

Dude just send a PM to redeitz next time. No one else gives a fuck.

 

I predict...

that the UNKewl one will shortly be crawling back to The Wizard, begging to be reinstated at WOV.

 

This is a perfect example of attacking and demonizing someone that presented legitimate challenge or threat to someone's bogus claims.

Todd Whittles who goes by Dan Druff in the poker world and online forums, is a professional poker player. Suggesting he is an addict is just BS, because he called you out and proved your claims fake.

Now personally, I don't include poker players under the umbrella of AP's. While they are playing with an advantage, their advantage is over other poker players, as opposed to the casino itself. In the case of poker, the casino is just a middleman. I reserve the term "AP" for a player who gains a long-term advantage over the casino and negative expectation games. That is just me and my definition and even that is flawed as players cheating would technically fall under my definition of AP.

But the bigger point is how you guys and your fantastical claims that defy math and reality, must attack and demonize anyone that has legitimate concerns, questions and challenges rather than answer those concerns as every real AP can.

 

I don't need to be "reinstated" because I left of my own choosing. All I would need to do is notify one of the mods that I want to post again. But I won't do that. I no longer can post on a forum where the administrator, a known math guy, turns his back on the math and reality and protects a scammer attempting to mislead the forum members, no different than the many youtube scammers. I just can't take that kind of forum seriously enough to post anything of value.

While I have issues with Dan Druff and him allowing all the personal attacks, to the extent that his forum is known through out community by names such as "the urinal" or Cesspool", at least he occasionally stands up and confronts, a BSer like he has done multiple times with Singer. AND that is the exact reason why Mdawg ended his participation at VCT. He knew he could not get Druff to allow his BS, like he has manipulated Shackleford to do.

I also long ago gave up on this forum as far as posting anything of value. For several years I posted, sharing my experiences. You can still find these threads, such as "Two man EMFH team", "the education of a young card counter" and "the rollercoaster that is card counting". The thanks I got for that was allowing people to attack me about personal shit totally unrelated to gambling, including allowing members to dox me. So I post here, mostly to troll Singer and Mdog, but never again will I attempt to post anything of value.

 

I should make a correction in that Dan Druff, has certainly posted about things he does that do qualify as advantage player, some video poker and other. I was just referring to his poker career for which he is best known. A poker player is playing against other players, not the house, which disqualifies him as an AP, because he is not gaining an advantage over the house (casino) and -EV games. Again, just my opinion.

Related is sport betting. Someone like redietz who has made money for decades, is obviously playing to some kind of advantage. Is that advantage over the casino or over other sports bettors. Especially since redietz is involved in a lot of contests. I just don't know where that fits as far as my definition of advantage player. Not that my definition matters that much....bottom line is he is a successful sports bettor.

 

Uh, no.

The CORRECT analysis: "...about a man who very much loathes himself and his circumstances and flees to the casinos to escape."

 

God, I can't believe I waste a minute

V, if you haven't read anthropologist Natasha Dow Schull's book "Addiction By Design," I think you'd appreciate it. Best book on gambling science, the business of gambling, the psychology of gambling, and gambling history -- all under one cover.

 

A real player, sharing his real experiences and results, should be able to answer legitimate questions or concerns that others may have about his claims without all the name calling and attacks. A real player should actually welcome that opportunity to clear up any confusion or misconceptions.

I have thought that an interview type Q & A with you (Mdawg) might be beneficial to everyone. Unfortunately when I approached GWAE, there was zero interest. I also suggested Dan Druff's podcast, but I don't think he responded. Shackleford is disqualified because of his shady relationship and arrangement with you.

So here is my question to you Mdawg. Would you be willing to do a written Q&A with me, with questions submitted by myself and other members, without all the name calling and hostilities?

I am thinking along the lines of the Q&A that I did with mission at WoV 6 or 7 years ago where he submitted a list of questions, and I answered at my own leisure, including at least one answer that I didn't want to get into (that is always an option). A second format option would be along the lines of the blackhole questioning of me a year or two ago, although that was not without attacks and name-calling. The difference in format being question, answer, question, answer as opposed to submitting a list of questions off the top.

The upside to the second format is follow up questions based on answers, but the downside, it has the strong potential to just turn into a back and forth indifferent than most threads.

If you are uncomfortable with me being the primary questioner, I am open to others, Axelwolf or several others, even Alan Mendelson, as long as I could have some input to questions, I would like asked.

So any interest?

 

V, I don't know that to be the case. I don't think you do either. It is a possibility, but mostly an assumption on your part, no?

My own personal feeling is that Mdawg is a wealthy guy (nothing wrong with that), who enjoys the perks that the casinos shower on him. Nothing wrong with that either. However what is omitted from his story is the cost of those perks, meaning the losing that he does. He just never shares any of, or perhaps more accurately, very little of the losing, that makes those perks possible. Now if he did, it would be a much better and realistic story. And if to him the perks are worth the cost (losses incurred) that is wonderful. Seriously, good for him. But I just don't believe he is being honest omitting the losing involved in getting all those perks.

 

Can you envision a Q & A with Rob and douchedawg moderated by Alan?

That would be ... priceless.

18 lies in a row, just for starters.

 

I forgot, Redeitz is a journalist major. he would be another option for the Q&A as long as there is input from everyone.

 

Rob is incapable of being honest about anything at all. Mdawg, while approaching that point, I am trying to determine if he has past that point or not.

 

Just as the God of Moses was a poor general to allow him no retreat, the UNKewl one is a poor judge of human character if he thinks he will ever be allowed back at at any of the forums from which he has been banned.

As far as WOV is concerned,

for good.

Then again, isn't that his life story? Misjudging people, cards, casinos, and ending up an utter failure who pretends to be a blackjack player?

Oh! and wait, Yahweh wasn't such a bad general after all. He allow Ramses' troops to follow Moses into the Red Sea only to drown them, the way UNKewlJ has been drowned out and booted from most every forum where he has dared to participate.

Anyway, I have real work to do now. I'll leave UNKewl & Co. to comment further on The Great MDawg.

 

To be technically correct, I was a journalism major for two years, then switched over to English: Writing Option, as back in those days the journalism major was very structured, more like Dragnet than Law and Order. The English: Writing Option emphasized all kinds of writing. I focused on science writing. My advisor was this guy:

Robert Gannon: 1931-2003 | Popular Science (popsci.com)

He was arguably the best short-form science writer at that time. Interviewing was an emphasis.

 

Not the least bit surprised by Mdawgs refusal to answer legitimate questions and concerns to his claims.

Like I said, a real player, being honest, would welcome the opportunity. MDawg not so much. He chooses to run and hide and post movie clips.

 

And if he says he's been a successful baccarat player who gets constant comps etc. so as to be able to live in AC casinos for two years, are you gonna whine like the lying little bitch that you are, and tell him he's full of it because baccarat players just can be winning players, and only LOSING players get comped like that?
