Las Vegas GF Chat Room

And that's one of your many ongoing stories that have never been supported by facts. You do that a lot.

You do understand red that your poor reputation on forums and most probably, elsewhere, is a function of you looking stupid. How many people didn't see you once again say you had SF over TB, AFTER THE GAME WAS PLAYED?

You and your endless stories red....you could have taken Scotty of Scotty's Castle's place. My guess is you're a non-stop talker in person, like him. Always explanations--never any proof.

No wonder you're here

 

Here's a fact. You said you were asked to host a video poker roundtable. Those posts are at VCT. Here's another fact. No such roundtable was listed on the conference scheduling. Fact Three: I called. No such roundtable was scheduled. Fact four: Anyone perusing the conference schedule for that year, or any year, can see zero references to one Rob Argentino or Rob Singer (gotta check both, after all). Fact Five: When presented with the fact there was a conference schedule online, you said the roundtable had been moved to your private suite.

My contest selections are in plain public view, Rob. Did not have a great day and needed SF badly. I am currently 80th (out of a couple thousand) in Heritage, tied for eighth in Northbet (out of 500+), and hopefully still second or third in TopBet (out of 1300). Verifiable facts, my friend. Anyone with a site account can look them up, but not TopBet because they don't post standings until Tuesday. Today is Monday. But you can look up last week's standings.

As for facts, ahem, no corroboration of anything on your part. Zero. Of anything. It's funny as hell. I don't even mean the mythical jackpot or the 68% ATS for two years in the NFL, or the double up bug stuff -- those are prima facie ridiculous. I mean the marginal stuff, like the roundtable, that a person would have to be an idiot to just make up. Or your claim there was a Gaming Today dude who wanted you to return and write some pieces for them, until GT told me when I inquired that the person you mentioned hadn't worked there for months. Just silly stuff to brag on without corroboration.

 

As I said: no wonder you're here.

HERE is where you think you can get away with saying you had picks AFTER they won

HERE is where you can announce contests and tournaments accessible only via membership, secret handshakes, fees, or stealthy passwords.

HERE is where you can make up "facts" about history and all of your "buddies who are familiar with the situation".

HERE is where you can put together make-believe derogatory scenarios about other, more competent gamblers and sports bettors so you can somehow feel better about yourself

HERE is where you can fabricate having mysterious friends, relatives and acquaintances who serve as catalysts to your endless array of pretend "life experiences" that are neither here nor there.

And HERE is where you can post as a representative from the Democratic Republic of Mars.

Are you getting why kew idolizes you yet??

 

HERE is the only platform open to Rob, having been driven from polite society to this obscure internet box canyon.

 

I am guessing he doesn't even realize this.

 

And your guesses would be wrong, as usual. I could easily join any of kew's BJ forum where he makes a fool of himself, and laugh at him like everybody else. And wizard asked me if I wanted to come back before my last interview.

But please don't misunderstand. I only ever have "joined" forums to irritate the little people with my vp successes, and to denigrate others who mistakenly think they somehow measure up. I do have my fun.

This, however, is a 180 from red, kew, V, and a few others out of a pitiful overall lot. These fools for some reason believe this is SERIOUS STUFF and they let my control over them get so far under their skin that they see red in their dreams....when they can get to sleep, that is.

The one partial exception is the resident pothead/drug addict V. He has such a fried brain that HIS dreams have me as his WOMAN in red.

HERE is where I am enjoying myself right now. And I already feel as it's been a blast 18 years in a row!

 

Making fun of Rob requires nothing more than listing what he's claimed here:

1) Won the biggest video poker jackpot in history, which the casino has kept quiet because...well, maybe they are scared there are more Rob Singers out there who will come to beat them silly.
2) Won 68% ATS in the NFL for two years, playing five games per week, something that has never been publicly done in the history of NFL handicapping going back to the advent of the point spread.
3) Won more at the double up bug, and played longer, than any other person on the planet, all while never being caught.

Of course, there is no corroboration for any of this (how could there be?).

No wonder the folks running G2E moved Rob's heading of a video poker roundtable to Rob's "private suite." How could they allow such earth-shaking expertise to be shared with the general conference-going public?

 

Rob, there are billions of people on earth and many, many social media platforms you could participate in to spread your message, in order "to irritate the little people with my vp successes, and to denigrate others who mistakenly think they somehow measure up."

The fact that you limit yourself to this rathole indicates you are, in fact, reluctant to put yourself and your "message" out there for all to see.

It's the same old few who respond to you here, and "you've got our number."

Here you can comfort yourself in "knowing your adversaries," i.e. you've read enough of our posts to develop material for ad hominem attacks; such would not be the case if, for example, you posted your claims on popular, highly viewed sites.

There you'd be inundated with claims of "bullshit," "lies" and "you're fucking insane, man" and you'd have no ammo to shoot back.

 

You're not getting it V. 10-20 years ago I was into the vp-based forums for the same purposes I explained. Then I grew out of that and choose to only participate in this lame forum in order to dig away at some of life's true peons. I was at VCT prior--now here. One forum and not half a dozen like you others. Why waste so much time on other forums when I can defeat the little people right here for my jollies, and then go shooting, traveling, and bbqing for my family?

True losers frequent multiple forums. It equates to having no real life. That ain't me.

 

Now here is the real truth of it. Rob is a life-long losing gambler. He wanted desperately and tried to be a winning, video poker, advantage player but failed miserably. So, he made up all these stories, one after another of all these fantastical claims of million dollar wins, and million dollar RV's. None of it true. Rob's retirement plan was to live OFF his kids for God sakes.

Now in his 70's and mooching off his kids, Rob spends his days attacking real players, who have successfully won off the casinos. Now Rob thinks trolling on internet forums is some kind of completion that he is winning because he is one of the nastier, lying-est guys on the forums.

Well guess what? Internet trolling and being the biggest liar and nasties troll aren't a completion for most of us. Only an angry, very bitter old fool would think that.

So, Rob wins at being a nasty internet troll. Congrats Rob. Quite the accomplishment. Meanwhile the rest of us losers and peons have won at life, doing the very thing that you failed so miserably at. And all your name calling and 3rd grade antics can't change that. Fittingly, you reside in the hell that you created.

 

The UNKewl one and the addict alcoholic have rather square perceptions of how things must be, and lose it over anyone who has done anything they could not.

PunkCity on the UNKewl one: You would have to be THE nastiest piece of work on this forum.

You constantly backpedal, you constantly troll, you are constantly long-windedly posting dross about the same UNVERIFIED gaming YOU accuse others of here on this forum.

Seedvalue on the UNKewl one: My fucking god I can’t stand you. You are so fucking fake bro not real.

acescracked_12110 said it pretty well when he nailed down the UNKewl one with: Just a quick reminder that after all the blather, there's only ONE poster who takes himself so seriously that he felt the need to fake his own death on a gambling forum. Perfectly reasonable thing to do, of course, and he has a *perfectly reasonable* explanation for it, just as he has air-tight explanations for all the other bad behavior he's engaged in in these spaces over a VERY long period of time.

Mdawg, I will say this. This week you posted that after 3 years of your thread and living 90% of that time in comped suites and claiming total wins of more than a million dollars, that when a pit boss sees you, they ask "are you still taking us for all that money" (or something to that effect). You even thinking that is anywhere near the way Las Vegas works, is just retarded.

Other than that, I am just not going to bother responding to you anymore. You have nothing new to say. You apparently can't even think for yourself as all you do is post quotes from a few KJ haters, most taken out of context. A guy making what you claim to make, wouldn't be attacking, not just me, but up to 20 people, starting an individual thread about each, to attack them, just because they expressed doubt about your claims. Something very, very wrong with that picture, and it speaks volumes.

Of the two of you with your fake claims, Rob is more fun to pick on because he is so bitter at having failed as an AP. You are just telling a fake story for attention.....at least the part about all the winning.

Other than that, have a good Christmas or other Holiday that you may celebrate.

 

I've no real complaints about my gambling history; not an AP I went into it knowing I'd lose over time, and I have.

So what?

I figure it cost me on average $250 or so per month since I started.

Pshaw, I used to spend more than than on tobacco and alcohol, two vices which I abandoned cold turkey in the nineties.

Douchedawg loves to invent shit to support his bullshit narratives: the sign of a weak person with a weak mind.

Keep it coming clown boy, you're funny without trying to be.

 

My main gripe with MDawg, at this stage of the game, is that he is using a really awful writing "method." The internet is overrun with "stories" that are really just banal clickbait, which is fine, but what drives me nuts is the quoting of anonymous folks in a wholly selective, ducks-in-a-row way to create some kind of narrative based on just the quotes. You know, pluck six Twitter quotes and say, "The Twitter Universe Hates This," or search through and assemble half a dozen Instagram schticks and build a five-paragraph narrative around what six people out of 100 million have to say. It's the worst sort of self-absorbed, silo "writing." From an argumentation standpoint, it's very (pardon me, V) "lawyerly." Ignore the context (six out of 100 million say this) and just build a narrative around what you want to be true.

Ridiculously selective data reporting. Coming in the context of MDawg's perpetual winning self-reporting, I guess it's all of a piece.

It's such an awful trend -- ignore reality and report what you'd like reality to be. Cherry pick everything.

 

There is absolutely nothing wrong with your gambling history MrV. Nothing wrong with enjoying casino play as a hobby or recreational fun, if that is what you want to do. I have a buddy that golfs at least once a week. He tells me that a round of golf and a couple drinks in the clubhouse afterwards cost $100 a round. And that is not even including balls, tee, golf shoes and cloths. There is absolutely nothing wrong with anyone choosing some casino play as their hobby or past time and dropping some cash and occasionally winning.

And personally, I think that is what Mdawg does. He is a wealthy guy that enjoys gambling and the comps and stuff that are given to a higher end player. And he may even play that comp game well. THAT is a good and interesting story as far as I am concerned. AND everything makes sense and falls in line with how Las Vegas and the casino industry works. BUT, when you add in all the winning (or perhaps disproportionately share winning results, leaving out some of the losing), the story falls apart.

That is just not the way Las Vegas and the gambling industry works. And when you start talking about voodoo gambling things like "betting into hot streaks" and "you can win because you have a large bankroll", neither of which can overcome negative expectation, long-term, it just gets weirder and more obvious that it just isn't real. Add in one more thing and that is a NDA to Michael Shackleford, a gambling math expert who has witnessed Mdawg play. If what Mdawg claims in these daily reports were true, he would want Shackleford to verify that he is a winning player doing something that can result in long-term wins, instead of a NDA not to do so.

 

And I will add on a little about Shackleford. I give Mike a lot of grief for allowing this BS, false claims of winning that could harm other players if they try to emulate. But despite the NDA, whether an honest mistake or not, Shackleford did post and make it clear what he thought. But, because of the NDA and threats from Mdawg, Mike had to take that opinion down within a short time, but I think he did what he could and I don't think that was by accident. Shackleford desperately wants to say what he thinks. I have no idea why he would agree to the NDA.

But the big question remains, if what Mdawg says is true, why the need for the NDA with Shackleford. Let the man say what he thinks and if Mdawg is telling the truth it will verify it.

 

Let's sum this up: kew is OBVIOUSLY hurt whenever anyone posts/brags about their successes in life, so he has to make up alternate histories.

Take MDawg for example: the guy has no problem rubbing lesser faces in the fact that he has a good life, he has access to lots of disposable cash, and he excels at a game that others do not fully understand enuf to play, he wins at BJ, and he gets comps the little people on forums only dream about. Add in that wizard kind of supports his details about it all and you have kew blowing his very envious top under the guise of "gee guys, I'm only here to chat with and learn from other AP's and I just don't like it when people say they have things I don't, play at levels I can't, and say they win when they shouldn't!"

It's fairly similar with me, only kew finds his comfort in claiming I'm a "cousin Eddie who somehow lives off my kids" and other proven lies. He apparently hasn't the aptitude to win at video poker, so naturally, when he's jealous about a critic's personal successes, it irks him when such a person wins playing it.

On wizard, he just can't fathom how a math guy can vouch for--and not denigrate--ANYONE PERIOD NOT NAMED KEW.

Overall, pathetic. And I love it!

 

That's a nice little house you have there in Emery, Rob -- reminds me of mine, although both appear to include the garage as square footage listings, which is a bit ridiculous. My question is, what are you doing in South Dakota in the winter? Do they even plow those semi-rural streets in the winter?

I'm on an isolated street, but I have 60,000 people within hailing distance, so our services aren't terrible. Emery is about a tenth the size of Mayberry or my hometown. Do you even have police there?

 

Red, this is really the whole game from these guys. We can't know if they are seriously detached from reality or just playing make-believe like kids do.

Because management here broke this thread off and doesn't even want it to show up as most recent posts, to get to this thread, I have to go to misc gambling forums and click on this thread and even if I click on "last page" it will still take me to page 1.

That now page 1, is the point in time that Tater/Moses, (the late Kevin Keen) announces that he is batting cancer and is very sad to re-read. And you will notice his thoughts wander and his grammar poor, I am sure due to medication and stress he was under, but he had some things he wanted to say and did the best he could.

On page 2, posts 22-24 he addresses me. He apologizes to me for things said and asks me to forgive him, which I did and have. But there are some interesting comments in there, one stating "it wasn't about blackjack for me, it was about winning". I have been thinking about this a lot the last day since I re-read it. I think he was saying once we got into this feud or troll war or whatever you want to call it, it was no longer about blackjack to him but was about winning that war or feud. And that is why he said some things that he said, that he knew were not true.

Well it WAS about blackjack for me. My (adult) life is about blackjack and when people start lying trying to discredit me to win some kind of troll war as Rob and Mdawg continue to do, yes I take offense.

But the most telling thing from Tater/Moses was a short post #23 on page 2, where he says "Anyway KJ. I just want you to be happy. You are a bright young man. Just keep doing watch you do." He obviously wrote watch when he mean 'what', and we can debate the "bright young man", but that "keep doing what you do", clearly shows that he knew exactly who I am and what I do, despite years of insisting on the exact opposite.

And I greatly appreciate him expressing that, but why does it take a man on his death bed to finally be honest? I just don't get this crap of lying and trying to tear someone down with stuff you know is a lie, that Rob and Mdawg STILL engage in. I really just have never gotten that concept. How does lying about someone else, do anything for what you are claiming?
