Misc The VCT Thread!

Here is the kind of thing that REALLY irritates me about the current WOV. I think it was yesterday, a new person showed up asking a very elementary and basic question wanting to know the true count frequencies for each count for a 6 deck game. He used funny terminolgy saying the "odds of each count" when he meant the frequency of each count. He obviously was trying to figure out just how big a spread he would need to employ to overcome all the -EV hands.

So for hours, no one answered this most basic of questions. Instead he got comments about how card counting doesn't work and his bankroll wasn't big enough. Everything under the sun except an answer to his most basic question. Finally, Doghand (and no surprise that it was doghand) provided the answer he was looking for.

With the old WoV, a forum that was started to answer players questions and help them be better gamblers, this very elementary question would have been answered in 3 minutes. yesterday, I thought I was going to have to create an account just to give this guy the answer he sought. What has happened to that forum? And where were YOU? You claim to count cards, why couldn't/didn't you answer this poor fella?

 

Typical of you to think that anything that happens has to be addressed by you in some way. I get suspended and you try to goad OnceDear into saying something against MDawg at VCT. Someone posts something about BlackJack at yet another of the forums where you have been nuked and you feel the need to appear as a sock puppet to respond.

Trust me, UNKewlJ, the world exists without you and will continue to do so without your input! As MANY have said, you're not here to save the world and no one is listening to you anyway.

AlanMendelson (R.I.P.) on UNKewlJ’s lying ways: Kewlj you do have a good imagination and a script that you stick to.

I actually was going to respond to that guy's post you mention, but then it seemed like he got enough input, and I lost track of the thread and got busy with other matters.

Anyway, all I care about as far as getting WOV suspended is that for some odd reason most of my few and far in between losing sessions at the tables appear to happen while I am suspended from WOV! Obviously just a coincidence, but it makes me pause. Beyond that, a few day suspension means nada.


Really what I am more concerned about is what is going on with Mission146. Even before his post today about MDawg and indirectly supporting the suspension, he posted something along the lines of "I'm glad people who I no longer have anything to do with do not have my number. The last thing that I need is more pointless messages/calls," "As I grow older and older, I see less and less of a need for these bromidic trivialities." and talk about how disappointing vacations may be. This, coupled with recent posts about how he is exasperated with all forums and done with helping people in general, makes me think he's going through some hard times. I actually like the guy and hope he is okay. He and I exchanged some nice posts and PMs that showed that we were on the same page with more than a few things.

 

You like to bring up that I am nuked from WoV. Might I remind you that everyone knows you too were nuked from WoV under a different handle. You changed your handle and back story and re-appeared. That makes your current handle, a permanent sockpuppet.

And I am nuked because I choose to be nuked. I intentionally created a sock puppet, "fictionlover" as a poke at you. I had already declared my intent to no longer participate seriously on a forum that you have ruined with your fiction/fantasy claims.

As for Oncedear, you don't participate at VCT. You don't participate there because you couldn't get Dan Druff to protect you like Wizard does and were too cowardly to participate where people could actually challenge and dispute your claims. So what do you care what I talk to Once dear about on a forum you don't participate at?

Anyway, Happy thanksgiving to you. I am sure you will get a good meal, but you know, Thanksgiving is about family and friends, and spending time with people you care about and that care about you. Rob is with his family. I am with mine. You, a gambling addict are couped up with your wife (I guess) in Las Vegas. I think that probably says everything need be said about you.

 

You have your own hypotheses (almost all wrong) about why this or that happened or happens. Or about what is going on or not going on.

In the end, that's the source of your distress - that you can't just let things be you have to twist things to conform to your perceived view of the world.

Happy Thanksgiving!

 

Marathon Mission has been battling booze and depression for years(his words). That's one of the reasons why he claims to not care about ANYTHING a lot of the time and disappears for long frequent stints. I like the guy overall and hope he gets the help needed to enjoy life a little more.

 

What's interesting about the 'Druff at VCT is that he only responds when he cares or wants to respond. This goes for private messages as well as forum posts. Most people at least give some kind of response to an email or private message - not the 'Druff!

For example when UnKewlJ posted death wishes 'Druff ignored them as much as he ignored the UNKewlJ's hypocritical demand that someone else's death threats be removed.

 

More obsessing by this sad human being of a person. I mean that literally. The other day this person, Mdog wrote "I'm happily married to a model looking young wife". How incredibly sad. What he is describing is what is known as a trophy wife. He doesn't love her, he loves the idea that others are jealous of him (in his mind), and she sure as hell doesn't love him. She loves the cash stuffed in his pocket.

Every single aspect of this person's life, including his little fantasy thread on an anonymous message board is about trying to impress others. That is an incredibly sad existence. I feel nothing but pity for this person. This simply is not a happy or content person. He resides in a hell of his own making.

 

When we're talking about hypocrisy, in other words describing hisself, with all that he writes about others, it's the UNKewl one to a T!


RobSinger on the UNKewl one: What an idiot. As your entire life again gets shaken like a tumbling house of cards by none other than Shack and the dawg, you take your pussified self, in the heat of the moment, out of the picture supposedly on some fairy bicycle ride that could be better stated as a suicide run at this point.

You should have stayed in school. I just exposed another of your lies and you do what losers always do: deflect and hope no one notices.

I then mocked you for not doing what you said you were gonna do regarding your nemesis MDawg, and all you could do is look like the big fool he's been making out of you for a long, long time.

Smart money says you cry yourself to sleep every night. That's called Music To Everyone's Ears!

 

On a serious note, why don't you go back to school, as Rob has suggested?

If my casino play, fully comp'ed and usually winning, openly, with an advantage no one has yet detected, is getting old, and stressful, I can't imagine how terrible an existence it must be playing only green chips at crappy casinos constantly having to hide and worry about being thrown out. We already know that you don't even play blackjack that much, what little you do play, is it even worth it?

HOLD THAT THOUGHT - no one wants a series of long-winded, rambling drama-laced "I NEED TO set the record straight or I'll go OUT OF MY MIND!" paragraphs - just something for you to consider.

 

You are quoting Rob Singer who last week admitted that his vitriol on these forums is just an act.

I thought the same about you for a long time, but it has become crystal clear, that you, with no matter how much you have, born into wealth, can never be satisfied unless you think others are impressed. You seriously are in a prison of your own making.

Why would I go back to school? I make twice the national average salary, working for myself doing something that I still love doing. Everyone should be so fortunate. And unlike you, or some other players that rant about losing periods, I completely understand the math and variance and am able to handle it. It is part of my chosen career.

As for your winning, playing with an advantage, I don't believe that, because you have never indicated anything that might lead to you playing with an advantage, but contrary have often spouted complete gambling voodoo and folklore like "betting into streaks".

If you are/were playing to an advantage, all you had to do is at the beginning when asked numerous times by numerous people on numerous forums was say something like "yes I am playing with an advantage but choose not to reveal it" and no one, myself included would have questioned further. We may have chosen not to believe you without something indicating what you were doing, but we would not have questioned it publicly and all this animosity could/would have been avoided.

What you are doing now, is something you do frequently, changing your story and revising claims. Just like you did when after posting claims totaling half million in wins, you wrote "Wizard and I have gone over my results and I am about even". Changing stories is something people like you frequently do. It is a dead give away.

But let me ask you this anyway, if you are doing something that gives you an advantage, why is it that Mr. Shackleford (the great wizard) who has seen you play, says you are not playing with an advantage? Are you telling us that Shackleford doesn't know what he is talking about?

 

I dare you, challenge you, to post over at WoV, that you are playing with an advantage and that Mike Shackleford who has seen you play and says you are not, doesn't know what he is talking about.

 

The old "advantage no one has yet detected." Sounds like Maxwell Smart.

"Would you believe I play at a consistent 30% advantage no one can detect at all the strip casinos?"

Me: No.

"Um, would you believe I play at a 10% advantage at those casinos with drug addled dealers and managers who I bribe?"

Me: Not really.

"Errrr, how about I play at a slight disadvantage unless my cousin Maurice is dealing at the Trop -- then I get free lunch buffets and a nice cabana with a cabin boy?"

Me: No, Mr. Smart, I happen to know the Trop doesn't have a lunch buffet.

 

Of course it was too much to hope for that the UNKewl one would come back with anything but a series of long-winded, rambling drama-laced "I NEED TO set the record straight or I'll go OUT OF MY MIND!" paragraphs.

And then his sidekick REDietz piped in too.

But the fact remains that MDawg has done it! While all we have verified about the UNKewl one is that he lives at some little apartment where it's unclear whether he has any actual ownership, and does NOT play much blackjack at all. Let's be clear - the investigations done by others establish that he plays very little blackjack, not that he plays a lot.

According to one who knows he's more of a loser who stares at video poker machines all day long in low end locals only joints, when he leaves his apartment at all.

 

Ozzy on the UNKewl one: I don't whine like a fairy and have my panties in a bunch, like a repetitive whining UNKOOL poster.

And this is the MDawg Challenge.

 

HERE is where your little game comes apart and you are exposed. If you really believed this shit you post, that I was some small potatoes player that didn't know what the hell I was talking about, you wouldn't care what I or anyone else said or thought.

But that is NOT what has happened. Instead you have attacked every single person that has questioned your little fantasy claims, to the point of crying to Wizard to remove people. This is because you KNOW I and others are real players who know what we are talking about and how things work.

 

And this is where you and I differ. I welcome anyone that has any questions or even doubts about anything I claim and do. As long as they are somewhat respectful, I will to the best of my ability try to explain it to them, even at times going into areas I really shouldn't because it is harmful to me or can be identifying.

YOU on the other hand, cry to Wizard to remove people challenging and doubting your claims, and then go on an attack spree, hoping to discredit them, simply because you can't answer.

 

But rather than continuing to deflect with your lies and attacks, I am still waiting for you to post at WoV, that you play with an advantage and that Michael Shackleford who has witnessed your play and stated that you aren't, doesn't know what he is talking about.

 

All it takes it but a few words. Friendly unfriendly or even hateful and the UNKewl one will always respond with a torrential flow of brain short circuited nonsense as he tries desperately to make and re-make his case. He says he won’t respond to posts putting him down but…chuckle.

He’s up to about nothing other than robotic plays he repeats from books.

UNKewlJ the phony:
accountinquestion on the UNKewl one: Literally, your story is something anyone who cares enough could figure out via books and reading the internet. While I find your stuff interesting to read, you've never said anything interesting except for some story you told me in private. I believed it but now I wonder if I wasn't just fed bullshit. At the time I thought you were a legitimate person and have taken things from that convo as true. I now believe this was a mistake.

accountinquestion on the UNKewl one: You on the other hand are not that believable

accountinquestion nails down how questionable UNKewlJ is: I actually thought you had credibility. I now regret repeating that story to others where I come across as "I have it on good authority" with what is likely a at best 50/50 story.

accountinquestion on how UNKewlJ must be a phony: All I know is if kewl was who he claims he would have packed up some time ago


And lest we forget:
accountinquestion on the UNKewl one: What is the point of your posts? No one here thinks you are the "what can and can't be" police/guardian so why do you need to state that?
