    All of the real blackjack players on the forums say that you are not credible, so you've failed the test.

    The ditz paid to have his name and resume included in some obscure book of gamblers.

    He probably paid to have his name listed on those contest results pages that he always blabs about too, without having really competed, just so he can brag about finishing in 30th place in some free-to-play contest from 40 years ago.

    Right, coach. That makes perfect sense, except that my plays were usually publicly available once the games kicked off. Good reasoning, though.

    The one thing I did pay a fee for was, and I believe it was a grand total of $75, was the 1984 "Who's Who in Sports Gambling," published out of Las Vegas by Rick Hall. Hall was a handicapper himself, and he had just gotten sick and tired of the claims being made by people like Danny Sheridan, Mike Warren, and others. This was the early 80's, remember, and USA Today was allowing scamdicappers to run ads claiming things like 101-9 ATS records. So Hall vetted a bunch of handicappers who had been publicly, nationally monitored (of which I was one), and invited them to be in his Who's Who. I filled out a bio sheet and then Hall conducted a phone interview to get details he could check.

    The reason Rick Hall chose me was that I was monitored by Mike McCusker's annual "Tipsters or Gypsters?" McCusker was a Seattle Times reporter who kept tabs on more than a hundred handicappers over the course of the year and published their results annually. "Tipsters or Gypsters?" was copyrighted by McCusker and published out of Las Vegas. The San Francisco Chronicle did a bio feature on McCusker that can be found in a VCT thread.

    I might still have a copy of "Who's Who in Sports Gambling" buried in a drawer somewhere. It could be fun to pull up the cover and bios and start to post them at VCT or WoV.

    Thanks for the idea, coach! Much appreciated.

    I have been a professional handicapper and sports gambler my entire life. For roughly 30 years, I spent 90-100 days a year in Las Vegas. Reno and Atlantic City are not Las Vegas. Reno looks like some tired hybrid of Branson and Laughlin. On a good day, Atlantic City is a dump. It wasn't always a dump, but it is now.

    That's your story, but as usual, there's no legitimate corroboration, since that was 40 years ago.

    Now you're best known for making your picks available after the results are known, so your bullshitting has evolved.

    Spin us another yarn, you ditz.

    LOL. Sorry, coach.

    You seem to have some dates confused. It was last year, 2020 for those who can remember dates, that I finished tied for sixth out of a couple thousand in the Northbet contest (no spread NFL), tied for sixth in the Heritage contest out of a couple thousand (no spread NFL and primetime NFL totals), tied for second in the Youwager spread NFL contest (out of 250 or thereabouts), and in the top 10 of the Gaming Today no spread NFL contest, which had to have 20,000 people.

    So that was 2020. All results publicly available. Just call and ask.

    And let's not forget coach's favorite contest, which is invitation only, and for which I've gotten an invitation going back 30 years.

    Playbook 2016 Vegas Wise Guys Contest (playbooksports.com)

    The name of the guy finishing tied for third seems vaguely familiar.

    So coach, do you have gambling expertise? Inquiring minds want to know.

    No I'm not calling anybody, you can post links if it's important to you.

    Like you've written many times, anything can be faked.

    You probably paid to have your name included on those lists, just like you paid to have your name and resume included in Who's Who.

    Kind of a back-assward way to make your PSU degree pay off...don't cha think?

    I have enough expertise to know that you are listed as tied for 3rd, when you should have been listed as tied for 5th,
    so I don't find the link you sent to be credible.

    Back in post #9546 I gave 2 hints on the identity of FastEddie...the first being the initials CP. Those are the initials of the gentleman's real name...a name that he has willingly posted and never tried to hide.

    Weak Wizard told his fledgling forum that FastEddie was a bot. That's interesting because FastEddie is participating in the WoV NFL Pick 'em Contest. Some bot. So outside of math Weak Wizard is either as dumb as a box of rocks or is looking the other way and allowing FatsEddie to post...just as he's done dozens of times with this very guy.

    Boz knows who he is, Axel knows and has most certainly told his Daddy Wizard who is once again embarrassed in front of his former forum. Just more shady behavior by the 'man of integrity'. He's not fit to moderate a Tiddlywinks game.

    Coach, great news! I found that old "Who's Who in Sports Gambling." There's some famous people in there! I guess when I get some time, I will take pics of the bios and post them at VCT. There are some real old time famous handicappers listed.

    Thanks for the great idea.

    Lol
    You can’t use the bigotry, homophobic poor me get out jail card on me .

    I use the term “PRINCESS” on many posters here this forum various threads ,irrespective of gender, race or creed . To me a fool is a fool regardless of birth afflictions, social moulding , hillbilly gene pool or degen tendencies.

    I also use “BIG BOY” pants and or shoes, I use returd instead of retardant . I use the term interverse and casinoverse to satisfy you random “experts” that apparently post proof by their “posts” of how that backs up their self inflated claims of some sort of prowess.

    If I was to be homophobic I would not call you princess I would get down and derogatory and go all out bitch slapping your sagging anus with terms that would make you blush . So time to be an adult ( don’t post about being called an “adult” as derogatory lol) put your best pants on and stop pulling the poor me I belong to a supposedly ridiculed minority on this forum lofl and grow the fuk up. Princess.

    I’m

    Not afraid to continue to use words from my every day vocabulary because you have self image/ lol/ posting self image problems on a random forum on the interverse .

    A FORUM for fuk sake lol
    A RANDOM FORUM lol lol
    YOU pull the poor me homophobic card lol lol lol
    RLMAO

    OH excuse me , yes I can see you are definitely an EXPERT, yes very obvious now lol lol

    Get A LIFE.
    Lol lol

    As for trolling I would look at your derogatory,( for the record I’ve posted the better person post this thread to both you and mdawge because you both are an embarrassment to yourselves and you tit for tat banter is inane ) posts to tate and mdawge versus my what 3 or 4 posts to you or about you before you suggest in the same post to me about complaining to admin about trolling. You go to the right thread and make the right accusations there.
    Many of your posts contain no gambling related content this thread so don’t pull another poor me card I’m victimised post.
    Geezus are you that out of touch with yourself that you can’t re read your post before you hit send / post reply and see that you are talking/ typing crap ?
    Have a truly wonderful blessed day.
    Cheers

    Yeah who? Moses? Zenking?

    I am talking about top notch real and successful blackjack players, some well known, including members of the Blackjack Hall of Fame, like Munchkin, Schlesinger, King James, Tommy Hyland as well as half dozen longtime, professional and serious level players known through out the community. I am not going to post handles as some don't even like their handle mentioned on this kind of forum.

    I know what these people think of me. Most think I am an idiot for posting on these forum, but everyone knows I am credible and would tell you if you ask them. Actually scratch that, I am not even sure most of these people would even give a known troll like you the time of day, but go ahead and ask. Even some not blackjack players, but top notch, expert AP's like Mickeycrimm. Ask mickey what he thinks. Ask Axelwolf, who I don't always get along with if he finds me credible.

    Moses. Zenking. What a joke! And not a joke because they don't like me. A joke because...well Moses is just a joke as far as a blackjack player. He is a low limit nickle player who thinks he is an expert when he is not. Zenking is a joke for a different reason, because he is the playbook for everything a player shouldn't do and then blames everyone else.

    So ask some of these real players and get back to me.

    No real blackjack players have ever backed you up, 100% of the real players on the forums consider you to be not credible.

    You identified the test, and you have failed the test.

    Since you are considered to be not credible, whatever you consider to be "in no uncertain terms" is irrelevant, and your opinion in all matters is of no value.

    Wise up.

    Stop living in the past KJ. Anytime you want to play me I will be happy to take your money.

    Anytime you want to fight I will be happy to put a pop knot on your head that would high center a volkswagon.

    Talk is cheap. Get a game.

    Wise up. Everyone is on to you now. Your casino world only exists in your little apartment.

    Princess non player.

    KJ needs to take lessons from MDawg. Of course, that requires guts and he has none.
