Las Vegas GF Chat Room

So now we are down to just sports betting? That is where you won most or all of the money that allowed you to play other games and lose and receive comped rooms for 2+ years?

Much harder for me to disprove. And I don't really want to.

If you say you are a good enough handicapper to win consistently sports betting, who am I to say you are not. There is still a house edge that needs to be overcome though. But I will leave it to others to pursue that discussion.

 

You are nobody to me, so who cares what you think.

So what if I'm a degenerate gambler? What's it to you?

Geez, you just can't stop chiming in, so obviously you have some sort of issue; I just don't know what that is but it's certainly a mental disease for sure.

Instead of this bullshit internet word fight, why don't you come and fight me physically? You know I'm in AC living in casinos, so I'm easy to find.

Oh wait, you will have to fight my younger brother instead. I'm too old fight.

I have a story to tell about my younger brother. As little as he is, he is the toughest guy I know. At only 5' 4", he worked as a bouncer.

Once a man was tailing him very fast, so he slowed down to slow him down. They both came to a stop at some point and the big man got out his car and when my brother got out also, the man tried to punch my brother and missed. My brother wrestled in college and he quickly took down the man almost twice the size and beat the shit out of him almost killing him.

Bleeding like crazy the man gets up and says to my brother that he's going to sue.

It was a good thing that there were other drivers who had to stop because of what happened and a coupe of people said that you punched first to the big guy. That was the end of that event.

So, I won't fight you, but my brother will. Just don't bring a gun to a fist fight. He's only 5' 4". I have no idea how big you are but you have to be bigger. My brother is old too.

Let's hear what your response is to this post. That will be interesting.

Don't be an internet tough guy. Be a real man and fight real.

 

OMG! seriously?!? Now we are fighting one another or one another's brothers? Why did you go there. I thought we were having a somewhat respectful discussion.

V, did you have to inject the "degenerate gambler" line? Like throwing a stick of dynamite into a fire.

 

Holy moly.

This idiot challenges me to a fight but then says I'd have to fight his brother, not him.

Talk about delegating.

Let me guess: when your wife wants a good shagging you have your brother do the deed while you're in the casino gambling.

Apt.

Note: I am insulting you, not threatening you; why threaten me with bodily harm?

You say I am nothing to you, but your words tell a different story.

 

Oh boy. Trying to have a respectful discussion couldn't last long could it.

 

How many times must I tell you that I am not losing in casino games lately? 2+ years isn't that long of sample for long-term, don't you think? If I played a lot of casino games, then I know I will lose since I don't using an edge in any of the games I play. That's why I don't play a lot in casinos. I play but just enough to keep the comped rooms and no more.

I'm not down to just sports betting. I still gamble in casinos and also bet on mostly football. I never bet on baseball; although a poster was on a 16 game winning streak all no more than -110 and lots of positive odds and that would have netted me 16K at least if I tailed but I didn't. So, I missed out on a huge opportunity there.

I think I told you I've lost a lot in early years of the casino gambling and not as bad in recent years and almost none in the last couple of years that I've stayed in the casinos. Why must you fixate on losing if you don't have an edge gambling? Have you played any other game besides blackjack? I'm guessing no since you feel other games cannot have an edge to use, right?

Also, answer me this. If you had to play blackjack without card counting, you don't think you can win if you played every few days for a year? I can since I won 8 weeks straight at some point and racked up 25K all without the aid of the card counting.

Are you playing a detective? Obviously, you really enjoy and like disproving people. What you have to gain from it, I have no clue.

How in the world our conversation turned into this is beyond me. Are you this paranoid and skeptical all the time?

I saw your post about the concerns being a card counting blackjack player. I feel for you and if you have to go through all of that to be an AP, it's not worth it for me at least.

You constantly talk about AP, house edge, -EV or whatever.

I never said I was a pro in anything so I kind of don't care. I'm not trying to make a living from gambling, so it doesn't matter.

My girls are with me and my younger is busy reading what I'm typing. I asked her if she understands what I'm typing and she said no and it's a good thing.

I don't want her to turn out to be an internet warrior like MrV.

 

The only way to end a conversation with an idiot like you who thinks he's being smart is to stop responding, so go ahead and write whatever you want but I won't to you at least. Good riddance.

Oh, I hate these stupid ass internet tough pussies.

 

Thanks for your time and good luck in your future with blackjack. I should have known better.

 

Yes, I AM this skeptical of players that claim long-term winning while playing negative expectation games, with no explanation of how they overcome the negative expectation other than "I got lucky".

It is nothing personal. I live by the math.

I really don't care who claims what as long as the math works. If you are claiming to win over the long-term, like years, playing every day, you should be able to explain what you are doing to overcome that house advantage.

I am sorry you feel hurt by that. And I am sorry it has ended this way. I don't think you are a bad person, but what you are claiming just doesn't work for me.

Continued good luck and many more years living in a casino hotel room with your family, if that is what you desire.

 

Either kew is arguing with himself, or he has AGAIN proven that he possesses a personality that does not allow him to get along with anybody, anywhere. Other than the weirdo of course. And all while MrV continues on with his unusual need to keep stirring the pot, hoping to maintain the level of hate and degenerate behavior.

Just do a short, quick analysis from this thread. Is there anyone anywhere who still believes kew has the discipline, the intelligence, the temperament, the money or the time to be the "BJ Pro" that he's concocted for himself across the forums?

 

NO one!

 

It's very tough having a normal conversation with you for some reason and I really wonder why.

It's because for whatever the reason what I say to you does not translate exactly as what was said (or at least what I think I said) to you for some reason. Have there been that many people in your life who told you that they are "long-term" winners without using an edge? I haven't told you that I'm a "long-term" winner, so you need to get that out of your head if we ever meet again in the future.

There is nothing wrong to live by the math and I didn't take anything you said personally nor have I had my feelings hurt because you declined my offer, so not sure why you would even think that. Something is spinning in your head that's just not right and you need to clear them out somehow.

Like I said before, I'm kind of seeing why so many people are arguing with you and attacking you.

Lastly, I never claimed anything that I needed your approval or wanted you to believe me. I just don't like it when someone is telling me this is not possible and that's not possible when I believe to be otherwise. What I said are just my statements and whether you believe them or not is immaterial.

I tried to explain as best as I could to remove your doubts but it's a pointless venture so that's that. It's apparent that you rather listen to some people I would never want to associate with, so whatever happened between you and them in the past must been good at some point and possibly still good since you are listening to them pretty good.

I have no intention of staying in casinos forever as that's not my goal since once my oldest goes to a middle school, I want her to attend a brick and mortar school in a different school district as our current school district is the shit. I will have to move to do that so we are already looking into it.

As far as the luck thing goes, the casino gambling isn't all about math; at least not with all of the games. Probably only blackjack is related to math and that's about it in my opinion.

I gave you a clear example of luck in my last night's Pai Gow Tiles play. It looks to me like you aren't reading my posts carefully and it's understandable since it's like reading a book for every post I make.

When I went to a table last night at Borgata, 3 people were playing 2 hands each when there are 6 seats.

A man sitting at seat #'s 6 & 7, as the seats are numbered 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 7. looked at me said do you want 7. I told him okay but he didn't have to. He gave seat 7 to me and kept seat 6 for himself. He proceeded to lose all his money along with the other two players when I was pushing most of the hands. He never won a hand on seat 6.

Had he given me seat 6 instead of 7, I would have lost badly and he would have won. Honestly, I would probably be still there playing since I don't like to walk away when I'm down.

Instead, I won a bit so I quit after only an hour of play. Two of them lost everything 1K to 1.5K. Third player lost a lot too before leaving.

So, it was pure luck that the man gave me seat 7 instead of 6, and that's where I'm telling you luck matters with the games I play.

Even with blackjack, I believe seat matters as not all seats are the same. Players on some seats win more than the other seats and that's just luck.

I understand that you can over-ride the luck factor by card counting and whatever other edges you know that you can use with blackjack, but if you have the shittiest seat on the table, you are going to lose no matter what.

 

Well, that's what I wanted to find out, but he declined. All I wanted to do was just watch him play and not much more. I would have thought what I offered was a fair deal but he felt he had nothing to gain from the deal and that's understandable.

Regardless, I believe him and I feel he is a genuinely nice guy except a bit paranoid but that's also understandable. He engaged me in a conversation when he knows nothing about me. I could be a stalker for that matter and possibly kill him with all the crazy things that's going on these days if he accepted my offer. LOL Like that's going to happen.

I haven't read much of anything of this thread so maybe my opinion could change if I did.

What's funny is that he is listening to two people whom I think are abnormal at best, but I could be wrong since I don't know anything about them either except the stupid ass insults they are throwing at me and they think they are being smart about it when they aren't.

I need to stay away from these forums and that will happen when Punkcity does what he said he was going to do.

I'm actually beginning to think that it's not all that crack up to be about baccarat and perhaps he is trying to protect me from a disaster? Who the hell knows.

 

I swear, if I want comedy, I need to come to this forum and start reading; specifically this thread.

This is some funny shit.

I was just at a comedy show in Borgata last week. This is much more funnier.

 

No, of course not.

Next up: hangin' with the AC homies?

Just takes one bad losing streak...

 

I wasn't going to reply to your posts, but this was the most civil one from you yet that I have seen so far so I had to reply.

It's actually pretty funny, but I haven't seen a neighborhood like that in AC.

You can wish for me to lose bad, but I won't. I don't even remember the last time I had a losing streak and that's a good thing. Either that my memory isn't that good anymore as I'm getting old.

I was going to say something about my wife, but I decided not to just in case she ends up reading what I've been typing on this forum.

 

Alright LG, I made my point(s), I'll lighten up.

You're probably no worse than any of the other swinging dicks around these forums.

Your house is probably not to far from my old haunts...Haddonfield, NJ.

Happy variance.

 

Yes, I'm only about 30 minutes from that town.

Thanks and same to you. Hopefully, I will have nothing but the positive variety ones.

 

LG, I apologize for going off on you are rabidly as I did.

While I found some of your claims questionable I arguably pushed things a bit too far.

Mea culpa.

Yes, I am a troll at times, but not all of the time.

 

Returning from a delightful dinner, I have just a couple comments on recent posts.

LG, you say that you didn't intend to insult me, but frankly you have numerous time. I didn't respond to most because frankly, I was hoping maybe some cultural differences were at play. Who are the two people you think I am "listening to"? MrV and mickeycrimm, because they both expressed warning me of red flags that they saw? As I stated, I saw those red flags before either of them mentioned any warning. It is insulting that you think I am "listening" to anyone in that regard. But no matter.

A further culture divide, seems to be your belief that what seat you sit in is lucky or unlucky and responsible for your results of winning and losing. I think you have pretty much indicated your Asian heritage, so I don't think I am spilling any beans by saying, I fully understand your culture has a strong belief in superstitions and lucky seats and that kind of thing, but it is so completely opposite of what I believe in....the math. We are just worlds apart.

Anyway, I am not here to convince you or anyone of my beliefs in the mathematics of gambling vs these voodoo type thinking. I honestly wish you the best. If you have somehow pulled off breaking even or winning a little bit over the last 2+ years while living in casino hotel rooms, I hope your "luck" continues.
