Misc WizardOfVegas Forum is Dying

and I think smoking fags is a good hobby

 

Just to be clear on this, in sports betting, there are, technically, "gate keepers" who publish sports magazines and publish or are aware of who has done what in competitions and such. There are various circles of high-end bettors and industry execs (I'll refrain from saying "professionals" in deference to LarryS) who have been in the business for decades, who have television shows and such, who publish magazines each year and all that. There are even (and have been for decades) published summaries of people's records handicapping and in contests, along with consumer report style summaries of their business practices or lack thereof. There have been published Who's Who in Sports Gambling books. The McCusker Report, published in the 80's and 90's, was pretty rough on any handicappers who either had lousy multi-year records, which were included in print, or who engaged in questionable business practices.

I find it very weird that LarryS, who dabbles in sports betting, hasn't spelled any of this out. Why wouldn't he? Surely he knows all of this.

Nate, it was meant for Larry, not you.

 

I could post dozens of more articles if you wish.

I NEVER SAID AP'ING DON'T EXIST. But if you’re going to come on a forum and brag about your talents and income, you’ll be pressured to prove it. I don’t see how anyone would be that stupid and post a picture of their license and tax returns exposing themselves to all the nut jobs on the internet. When big time advantage plays were exposed, the ap’s, casino, and everything that happened was exposed. No questions asked - confirmed.

So, if you’re not willing to expose everything about yourself, people like me will doubt you every inch of the way. For most of us this leaves only one alternative, if you want to make a claim, put up or stick it up your self-proclaimed asses.

Kewlj,

I know your proud of your talents and income. Making stupid comments like me thinking the earth is flat and believing in the Easter Bunny because of my doubt of AP accomplishments is ridiculous.

Your alleged posted income from your hard work is commendable, but for many people that would be like living on food stamps. Stop blowing your own horn so much. I know many kids just out of college doing just as well.

 

Would it bother you terribly if an AP rightly told you it's none of your damn business as well as no one has to prove anything to you in first place? Also that you're announced wrenching doubt is of negative 233 level of importance in their world?
I would be crushed.

 

No, because it is none of my business. But, if you plan on bullshitting everyone make that clear up front.

Take what you post for example. No one bothers you since what you usually say is declared bullshit right out of the gate.

 

An oversseing or regulating body is not ALWAYS found with professions, but that is usually the case.

Let's examine whores (watch out for the crabs and scabies): they're "the world's oldest profession."

The only regulation they get is a shot of heroin and a backhand to the face by their pimp.

 

I dont know for sure....but I am guessing that there is state regulation of whores as far as health testing in nv whether it be in a house..or as independent contractors.

 

Thanks.

 

Will LarryS ever shut the fuck up? Unlikely now that he's retired and has more than just 20 minutes a day (lol) to waste on here. But hey, at least his former colleagues will be jumping for joy!

 

I apologize for my response if I took it wrong. I really have nothing against you, and was just responding to what I thought was a sassy remark.

 

Why apologize. It's probably true.
"Take what you post for example. No one bothers you since what you usually say is declared bullshit right out of the gate."

 

would "smoking fags" mean something different to you than the people from england???

 

On WOV it would.

 

Axel asked - Show me some examples of a google search “casino slot machine advantage play”

Do these count, and do you want more?

 

Yes, S&H Green Stamps, Double Diamond Mine, and Triple Diamond Mine are good examples of exploitable slot games. However, I don't think you will find many of them in the U.S. anymore. DDM and TDM came out about 1997. American Casinos (with the exception of some Indian Casinos) will keep a machine on the floor for only so long. Then they will sell the machine off and replace with newer more modern stuff. The older machines wind up in the hands of dealers who sell them to casinos in third world countries, like Cambodia, the Carribbean, South America, etc. So that is where you will most likely find these older machines these days.

Here is a screenshot of Double Diamond Mine.



You can see on the LED screen at the top of the machine three shafts. The first shaft has 7 diamonds in it and the third shaft has 6 diamonds in it. This is just short of being playable to an AP. When a diamond symbol lands on the line it, betting one coin per spin, it will add another diamond to the corresponding shaft, betting two coins it will add two diamonds to the corresponding shaft. When a shaft fills up with 10 diamonds you are awarded a ten coin bonus. Scoblete gave a pretty good description of what is a play. Play it off if you find a shaft needing only one diamond, or two shafts needing 2 diamonds, or three shafts needing 3 diamonds. However, there was some nuances to the game.

Finding these plays was based on ploppies playing the game and leaving the machine just short of collecting the bonuses. In the heydey this was just one of many kinds of exploitable games that sat on the casino floor. It wasn't the amount of money you made on just one machine. It was the total you made on all these kinds of machines during the day.

DDM and TDM are part of the IGT Vision Series of exploitable slot games that came out in 1997. I knew these machines were coming to Nevada casinos about three months before they showed up. There wasn't much competition for the plays early on so those of us who knew these games made some good money. But as time went on lots of people learned how to play them so the money wasn't so good anymore.

 

I'm still seeing that game in Indian Casinos in the northeast. Double and triples. But you do have like 20 different names with the same exact play just different symbols. Sheep, gold, babes... what have you. The stupidest one I saw was counting sheep where little lambs fell into the shaft. Couldn't possibly be more than one of those made.

 

dupe..is there no way to remove a post?

 

I agree that the best place to smoke a fag is in the great outdoors: no witnesses so long as you're careful, and lots of privacy; you even have good choices for clean up and disposal.

But many choose to smoke fags in the privacy of their home, or in the fag's home, usually in the heat of passion or anger: outdoor smoking typically is premeditated; indoor smoking is usually spontaneous.

It's not too messy to smoke fags indoors, so long as you take the necessary precautions.

Smoke 'em in the bath tub, or put the fag on top of plastic sheets before you smoke 'em: then either bury everything or rent a big chipper, ala Fargo (properly chipped, fags make a good fertilizer).

So far as fags being a burden on society: they're really no worse than blacks, Mexicans, or the Irish, historically speaking, and they dress better.
