    Well she couldn't exactly point it directly at her pimp, could she? She phrased it to leave her self wiggle room.

    You see she felt slighted (ignored) with her comment
    When will she realize, she is nothing more than chattel. IF she ever quit due to a spat, no doubt manBoy's response would be, "don't the the door hit you on the way out". What she has done prior, counts for nothing, he doesn't give a rats.

    Who is he trying to kid?

    After which he took a dump on those that look up to him, supported him to achieve his bail-out windfall. Old adage, I get shafted, so I shaft you, or maybe I shaft you, then I get shafted myself. Some may call the latter Karma.

    See nosey arsey-royW is pressing for more info, opportunity for some dobbing perhaps, maybe his neighbors are on to him, making sure they recycle everything and otherwise behavior themselves giving him nothing to complain about.

    A 1000 dollar bike stolen....someone did ask...hasnt he heard of chain cutters. There are more expensive devices to protect your bikes. Cutting costs are a bitch sometimes. And he was scammed out of 5-10k?
    These are the actions of a "manboy".
    A unicycle riding, ball juggling manboy.

    He said once that he doesnt make good business decisions....I agreed with him....since it was said days after his tin cup adventure.

    He doesnt make good life decisions either

    Laugh my ass off if it was Face or Mission, taking their cut for their effort in maintaining the site that landed him $2.3M, while he was exploring the definition of "happy endings" in the Far East and other places.

    Jesus, wouldn't surprise me if there was another tin cup coming out soon. Being skanked by a friend, robbed of a bike, in tears here.

    If you recall that McNugget eating contest, they plucked some girl out of nowhere, who stated she really needed the $50, which was her reason for doing it. After failing and making herself physically sick in pursuit of $50, some other member of the Wiz frat party took pity on her plight and gave her $10 bucks. manBoy gave NOTHING, other than leaving the girl feeling ill for the rest of the day. Just like he gave his moderators nothing. Yes I am also crying he lost his bike and somebody skanked him out of thousands of dollars, tears of joy.

    Okay, okay, who brought the recent activity of this thread to his attention?

    He finally acknowledged his ignorance towards his mod and responded 24 hours later, it's not like he hadn't made other posts in that thread in the meantime mind you.

    You were in a round about way being dissed manBoy.

    I have refrained from comments concerning Mike's 'good person' thread, knowing my personal feeling would prevent me from being objective. o_O But the thread and topic (coming from Mike) seems very strange to me. Is he trying to convince himself or others that he is a good person? :confused:
    Maybe not being able to hold back any longer makes me a "bad person", :( but here goes:

    A good person isn't afraid to admit when he/she is wrong. Sadly this has become a very common trait of late, including one of the current presidential candidates who wrote a book stating "you never admit you were wrong. It is a sign of weakness". I believe it is just the opposite. Recognizing and being able to admit you were wrong is a sign of strength, not weakness. It is an opportunity to grow and learn and those should be goals until one takes their last breath. The holding grudges and digging in is the weakness and I am sometimes as guilty as anyone. :eek:

    Getting specific to my own situation concerning Mike (I know Larry loves it when I get specific), I have to say I found Mike's statement last week that there were two people who were dead to him, myself among them, very revealing. It is right along that same vein of grudges and unwillingness to move forward. Declaring someone dead to you, completely shuts down any possibility of communication, which in this case, Mike did a while ago. Communication is where growth and learning and moving forward comes from and such a declaration, eliminates that possibility. And just making that kind of statement is the act of a very small person. A person with no desire for growth. That is the statement of a person who looks back, not forward.

    I don't have any sympathy for Shack. A good person, when he found out about the Betsoft rig in early May, would have informed all the customers who signed up to Bovada through WOO/WoV that something was up. A bad person would keep the information under wraps as long as possible. There was no announcement out of LCB until two months later when they knew the information was going public from another entity.

    A good person would do as he advertised and arbitrate any disputes between customers and Bovada. Bovada handled the problem by putting an extra $5000 in their progressives each time until $750,000 was gone through. In other words, the people who were playing for unhittable jackpots were left out in the cold, no reinbursements. LCB did not do as advertised and arbitrate the situation for its customers.

    I seriously doubt that the extra $5000 puts those progressives into positive territory. So Bovada rectified the problem by insuring they continue to make money, just not as much for awhile.

    Hmmm ... Would a "good person" wave a tin cup at the munchkins on the eve of selling the Land of Oz for millions?

    Hmmm ...

    I sent him $100. After he sold and someone jammed him up about the money he received from us he decided to reimburse or send the money wherever we wished. I told him to send my money to the Las Vegas Rescue Mission. He then asked me how much I had sent him. He didn't even know. That's how much it meant to him. He had no clue who sent what. All he was looking at was the dollar amount, not who sent it to him.

    Someone should tell Shack to put a TrackR on his next bike. Its about the size of a quater and hides well under the seat. If his bike is stolen he can find its location through his phone.

    Unless of course terms of the sale of WoV/WOO were not strictly cash or deferred payments as has been speculated. Perhaps terms of the sale included a minority share in the parent company, which would actually explain a lot of things.

    The Aussi guy Josh didn't have all the readies, he pumped in $1.5M for 65%, I'm guessing deferred, somebody else (Zuga perhaps) half a mill for 25% and the remaining quarter of a mill by persons unknown. It will be interesting if manboy sticks around after another 12 months, after his three year obligation expires, certainly he won't work for free, that's for sure.

    I don't know how actuate these type of sites are concerning wealth, I suspect it provides general ballpark figure. It states he is worth between $100,000 ~ $149,999, with assets between quarter to half a mill (on the surface seems he never got paid in full, who really knows).

    I'm guessing the purchase is highly profitable for Chan, because while he didn't have the $2.3M at the time, it didn't stop LCB purchasing BJ21 not long after.

    manBoy is top of the list, Derbyshire Dr. (cross-checked and confirmed, despite possible incorrect occupation).

    That figures. You wouldn't be the only one who helped him out in his hour of need and still got nuked. He has tunnel vision straight into a mirror.

    Interesting. If you google that Derbyshire Dr address, up comes Wizard of Odds Gaming Consulting. Maybe that's where he meets the "models". For professional purposes of course.

    Everything is online these days. For example I just found Mrs manboy's salary for the years 2010 through 2015. Only $45K last year? For a nurse? That wouldn't begin to cover his globe trotting in the name of "research". And the aforementioned "models" don't come cheap. They are needed though. How could anyone learn to play craps without staring at Angela's chest?

    How did I come upon Mrs manboy's information? Am I a stalker? Heck no. Or as WoN would say....no waaaaaaay! There is a great web site called TransparentNevada. Unlike manboy they don't just claim to be transparent...they really are.

    Just enter the name of any state employee and up pops their place of employment, job title and salary. It's all public information. I'm not going to post wifey's name here. She's probably just an innocent bystander like everyone else manboy has screwed over.

    Have you hugged a nurse today, manboy? No, not the ones at the strip clubs.

    He must flap a bit. When Micky made that drunken rant, manBoy said he lived in a gated community, the address listed above definitely isn't :D

    My own search 'me' came back with the same amount of earnings. Quite far off. Also says he's a trader/broker? Then why is he asking simple trade questions on Wov ntek board? That's all public record. Mine weren't updated since 2007 and had all wrong numbers and it appears that search service created email accounts that don't exist. I guess to pad the results. I don't believe the financial stuff can be depended on.

    With some 'record' sites you can do a one-off full disclosure for .99p. There are two phone numbers listed, one from the site and the other from Google, be my guest to see if any are valid. If a woman answers, ask, "is this Mrs Wizard, been anywhere nice recently, or ever been to China, Macau, Australia, New Zealand, South America, United Kingdom?" If she responds in the negative, advise her to get a login here :D

    Damn, how do you know these kind of details? Nevermind I don't even care. I guess anything is available on the internet if you know where to look.

    However, I think posting a street address, pictures of a house and phone numbers or such information is very wrong under any circumstances. I appeal to you to remove said information.

    There are 3 owners of WOV/WOO. Chan owns 65%, someone called Jem 25% and Zuga himself 10%. Manboy was kept on for 3 years to write gambling articles. Gambling articles....not nugget puking articles, not is Hey Jude still single, not are you a good person etc. That's what his DT site was supposed to be for.

    The Wiz was.

    I mean, his interest in gambling has waned.
