Yes I can follow. This thread is mainly in regards to the goldmines of poor information in recent threads on blackjack, craps, and now slots. IMO it is easier to master some form of advantage casino play over being a good capper - at least imo


With this single post, you should be respected by all..............

You could have told us why and what it means.....i know i havent a clue what that highlighted sentance says or means...

I will enlighten you...IMO it is easier to learn optimum strategy for a VP variation, a basic single-level counting system for BJ, or find a +EV slot opportunity than to win in the long run betting sports.

This is obviously coming from someone who spends most of their time at another forum and simply trying to take a shot at RX posters....

I don't spend any time on other forums and if you can show me where I am singling out someone in particular I would appreciate it. I make an honest effort not to be too confrontational, but if someone wants to call me out directly I feel inclined to defend my position.

Actually I thought AlSportsJunkie has been more than congenial and patient with the idiots on here. He's doing the idiots in here a favor by pointing out their idiotic ideas when it comes to gambling. So far everything he's said that I've seen has been good advice. As far as people not being in this forum if they were smart - well you're 100% wrong on that one too.

Can you please show me where I have condemned or otherwise spoke negatively of anyone specifically on how they are playing? It is your money - do with it as you please. I am merely speaking out against the rash of misinformation that has been spread through out in the past few weeks. If I came in here spouting BS such as "always buy the hook in sports betting" and "always bet against the team in green shorts on days ending in y" there would 20+ people piling on to tell me how ignorant and stupid I was. The information presented in the various casino threads over the past week is no less ridiculous, but yet I and others are the ones that are demonized for trying to point out the truth - I am not trying to help the stubborn ones, they are set in their ways, but if I can say something that helps a guy who is just starting out then by all means I am going to say it.

What's to know about casino gambling?

Hell it's not like it's rocket surgery or something.

You show up, you trade some cash for tokens, you put the tokens in a machine, they come around and give you rum.

You run out of tokens, you go to a ATM machine, get some more cash, trade the cash for chips,and head over for some black jack. split queens when the dealer has a 6 get another free rum, bet double the next hand, bet even more then next hand, lose all your chips, have another rum.

Go to an ATM machine get more cash, get some tokens, play some VP, draw to an inside straight, get a free rum, lose all your tokens, and call it a night.

Go up to your room, get cleaned up, and watch HBO the rest of the night.

I must admit, that is a line from a Canadian TV show/series called The Trailer Park Boys.

Al I apologize if I took it the wrong way.

The following statement you made initially was kind of misleading.....

I would agree with that Hache. If I had it to say over again I would of phrased it differently. As you can probably tell, I am quite passionate about all different kinds of casino gambling and like to learn as much GOOD information about different games as I can. Sometimes my methods of relaying such information on to others is not taken as well as I would like...and this is partly my fault. The one thing we all have in common is that we are gamblers - some are better than others, for sure, but the best thing you can do for a man is to teach him sound strategy and principle to employ in the game of his choice. You won't find me giving out any advice on handicapping horse racing - but I think I can add a little bit to any discussions we might have on craps, BJ, slots, etc.
