    Just suppose you had something and it was unique to yourself. The moment you share it, sell it or whatever, you lose whatever control you had over it. It just makes no logical sense to do it even if you are hard up.

    I find it easier to teach someone that's never played roulette how to get the edge than it is to teach a system player how to win.
    The reason is that many of them are like Turbo. They think they know, but they really have no idea as to what it really takes to get an edge and win in the long run. It takes a long time for them to unlearn so much bad information and to free the caged mind.

    I like your first idea. I won't teach just anyone. I say no a lot.

    I have made it clear that I'm not asking students to sign a non disclosure agreement. I would not take them to court. I'm only asking them to stay in their area. And that is just an ask. I stick with any student that will stick with me. I want them to succeed. They are my legacy. It took me years to perfect this. Why should I expect a student to get it in a month or two. It is true that a very experienced player can go right to work on this. I'm only doing this for my legacy and the enjoyment of watching a person open their eyes. I also need about $3,000 more but am prepared to live without it. With the right bankroll I expect to make $500 per day traveling around from casino to casino. I'd like to be done with all students once that commences. But this thread is not really about me. It's about the fun you can have with students. It's not about me charging either. It's about valuing what you know and proving it. Do you have the guts to prove to someone that might tell on you that you do or don't have it.

    Oh I use to. Not any more. Many of "them" wore me out with the Ken bashing so, "them" failing in life (not just roulette) is my new reward. I see "they" slowly start to UNDERSTAND more at RF. Its slow and I'll never get an ounce of credit for it, oh well.

    Thats what I forgot to ask you from a week ago. Why? The midwest for example (me). Your student is playing in Iowa but dont go to Milwaukee? I dont get it.

    I tried that but ended up serving a seven year sentence for it.

    I won't live past five years as I'm living with heart failure. Nobody in my family wants anything to do with gambling. I don't really need to control it. Now that I have paying customers it makes no sense for me to write a book and tell all. I'm making winners that have an advantage over other players. They want to get while the getting is good.

    Human nature, such that it is, will one day spoil the whole thing for everyone.

    BTW, I just took on Craps with the method and did very good at it. The other players thought I was a boob-head. But I closed down the table and they went home broke. And it's all because of reading randomness and knowing when to bet how much.

    I also beat the heck out of Keno using some of Turbo's expectation stuff combined with my own observation of patterns in long term play.

    Next, Baccarat.

    It takes motivation to win. The other day a gaming partner of mine told me of his friend that was willing to drive and hour and a half just to gamble for a few hours. He also said the same guy would sometimes spontaneously drive 45 minutes just to get the right sandwich from a specific deli that he liked. Yes, a deli sandwich! These days, that kind of person is rare! Such a person knows what they want, and they're willing to get up off their fat ass and go out and get it.

    It all springs from the Pelayo family and how they got caught. They honed their expertise at one casino. If it's spread around then it will remain a secret longer.

    and remember my story how I got started. When Poto opened here, it only had BINGO & slots and I think BJ (not too sure on that).

    I would drive over 90 minutes down to Elgin (Ill) in order to play roulette. They close in the mornings from 5-630 for cleaning etc.
    I would go to breakfast, read my paper and head right back. Sometimes back to my same seat (lol). Head back home around noon.

    A total of maybe 13 hours of playing PLUS driving. Funny you mentioned food. I also will go out of my way for GOOD food, its worth the drive!! I did a poll a few months back regarding driving to a NEAR BY casino or playing online. Most chose to play online.

    I do agree, LAZY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Authentic Chicago Styled Italian Beef Sandwich. Worth a couple of hundred miles for sure. I used to drive 20 miles out of the way for these in California. The Chicago native had four restaurants in my area. He made a California version. The beef and the dip were spot on perfect but he topped the sandwiches off with diced tomatoes. On each table was a large bottle of Crystal Brand Louisiana Hot Sauce. You can get a best recipe off the internet and make your own. I'm great at it. You look for them outside of Chicago. Out west you can't find them. It's clearly the best.

    Gizmo, Mr. J thumbs up!

    I like people that choose to actually live life! It's out there for those people willing to go out and just take it! Whether it's the perfect restaurant, the right wave, mountain climbing, gambling or the just the right ski slope. Tooo many people waste time just talking about this or that, rather than doing it.

    And there's your explanation as to why I didn't waste my time to come see you while you were here.
    And by waste of my time, I truly mean a waste of my time.
