I am still amused at the number of members that don't understand that making money in a casino requires effort, a silent mouth, and a large bankroll. Knowledge by itself only leads to theory not results.
Advantage Play
With all due respect it takes none of these to profitably play a game like FPDW as I have for decades.

With all due respect, maybe true for quarter FPDW, but even there you still need a couple grand to get started and you can't be making many mistakes and you need to grind out a million or so hands per year depending on your expenses. Most professional quarter FPDW players I know are the extremely frugal type, using a PO box, getting around on public transit, wearing casino swag, and harvesting as many government handouts as possible.

What a great description of the average professional VP player ! I do count some of them as friends and they do have a life outside of VP.

Iguana,
Does "harvesting government handouts" mean obtaining assistance like unemployment or food stamps legally or by fraud. My first impression of your post is that they are not legally entitled to these government handouts. Are they just frugal or are most of them just criminals?
