Actually, I'd guess the Administrator is probably a pretty nice
person. They have volunteered their time for a job that most people
would not want in a million years.
HAHAHA!! As the nerd enters his sissified, "I WANT YOU BACK AS MY
FRIEND" mode, but then has to go and spoil it all below.
I have no personal feelings about this person,
however, when they are clearly not following their own rules, and
will not admit it, then I have no problem pointing that out. Just
because they are providing a service does give them the right to
interpret the rules of VPFree in any manner they choose (although I
suspect the majority of members might disagree with me simply because
they don't want to rock the boat).
Can you please serve me some CHEESE with that whine!? What a kick
this bozo is!!!
It's rather interesting that little Robbie can only see this
disagreement through his own conflict ridden views. It provides
everyone with real insight into his true personality (as if anyone
really needed any more insight). So, let me spell it out for Robbie
since he has problems in this area ... adults can handle
disagreements without reverting to your normal childish responses.
Translation: He licked his wounds, and at the same time pretends his
lies and misrepresentations about the administrator are real. And
who's fighting inner conflict today, my friend?
Here's something to help pour salt on your injuries that just don't
seem to go away. Of course you've already read it but it never hurts
to see you squirm!

2008's 3rd Trip: Drive, Relax, And Collect The Cash
by Rob Singer
Tuesday, March 18, 2008
One of the best things about being a professional gambler is my
schedule. I can go where I want when I want, to play as many sessions
as I like with the proper strategy that I expect to win every time
out with, and it's all always up to me. Along the way I combine any
offers I've received together with my pre-set plan on where I'm
playing, and it really doesn't get any better than that when you're
out to transfer casino money into your account.
Sometimes, I am able to arrange a special trip where my wife can come
along, but those trips are usually devoid of any significant for-
profit play and are heavily laced with all that she wants to do. One
such trip was my latest that we just returned home from. It was a
normal vacation for both of us, yet because of the routing I was able
to incorporate some for-profit play here and there along the way. I
have to be careful when I do that because I am not able to play when
on any type of schedule. And since she is not much of a player and
enjoys/respects how I do what I do, we rarely run into any problems.
We left home Friday morning for the new Palazzo at the Venetian for
our first two nights. I didn't have an offer arrive in the mail, but
I received a call from the hotel inviting me in for two comp nights.
I also had the usual full comp offer from Sam's Town which I booked
solely for eating at their excellent restaurants along with the
obligatory $100 in cash for checking in.
I played a session at Sam's Town and won $1575 on a 25c-$5 five-level
Romp-Thru-Town. The unusual part was that I was dealt two quads in a
row, and I've never seen that. Afterwards at the Palazzo I won $1300
in a session that ended with four 2's on Double Double Bonus Poker
(DDB). The next day I began by losing a little over $5000 at the
Palms. I never seem to have much luck there. Play in LV ended with a
loss on the trip so far of $2175.
Sunday very early we left for our next destination the Peppermill
in Reno where we had dinner and my wife called it a day. I,
however, went over to Atlantis and won another 5-level RTT session
for $1070. Once back at the Peppermill I beat them up for $1250. But
here I played the entire session and noticed my card reader flashing
those dreadful Advantage-Player words "REINSERT CARD!" at the end
which, of course, meant nothing to me.
Most of the next week we spent in San Francisco and along the coast
just plain relaxing. No casinos, no computer---just peace and a break
from it all. But on the way back I chose to go through Reno, and it
again was the right thing to do. At one casino I lost $6050 on
another RTT session, but down the street on the next session I was
losing big when four Aces with the kicker appeared on $10 DDB for a
profit of nearly $16,000. We left Reno up about $10,950 for this part
of the trip.
After another pleasant drive on that wide open and lonely road to Las
Vegas, we checked in to the South Point for 2 nights. As usual, we
also checked into Sam's Town for the hundred bucks and dinner. On the
way out I told Cindy I wanted to play one simple Advanced RTT (ARTT)
session to win $100, which isn't difficult when playing 5 levels up
through $5. At the top level, unexpectedly, the royal hit for $20k
and another profit of $19,750.
Experiencing a royal is amazing enough because I rarely see them, but
this one had its own little twist. About 2 minutes prior my phone
rang and it was a couple from Colorado whom I've made friends with
while teaching them my play strategies the past few years. They
happily told me about their $5 royal at South Point earlier in the
day a marked event since they only played that high for the first
time because of my strategy saying not to go too high unless and
until you're fully aware of what you're doing. They came to town
prepared.
After we hung up, a very strange sequence of events began even for
a video poker machine that's supposed to be random. I was dealt 3-to-
the-royal and hit nothing on the draw. The next deal was also 3-to-
the-royal and I got a flush. The next deal was another 3-to-the-royal
and I ended up with nothing. The next deal was FOUR-to-the-royal and
I again got nothing.
I'm beginning to think something's up but how could anyone ever know?
The next two deals were normal nothing hands, but once again, the
next one was 3-to-the-royal ending up with another loser. The next
hand? You guessed it 3-to-the-royal, only this time I nailed it. A
random, yet uncommon, sequence of events that just happened to
happen? You make the call.
After sleeping all that off in our room at the South Point, I went
out to play a few more sessions. At the Hard Rock I left with an
extra $550, and the MGM contributed a cool $1550 because of four 2's
on $5 Triple Bonus Poker Plus (TBP+) paying $3000. With a sub-par
7/5 pay table, the "experts" say I shouldn't be playing it and I
can't win. Do I know more than them? You make the call.
We finished up our day at the Rio playing another ARTT on another set
of "poor" pay tables, and the session ended with four 2's again on $5
TBP+. This time, however, I executed one of my special plays that
deviate from expert strategy by being dealt 2266X, throwing away the
sure small winner, and keeping only the 2's for an opportunity at a
session-ending hit. Bingo another $1100 profit.
The experts tell me that play really cost me more than it was worth
winning, assuming of course that I play it that way millions of
times. Corny, huh? My risk analysis for short-term strategy defines
this play as the only way to play it when the full-house won't get me
to a goal. A better way than optimal-play only? Again, you make the
call. Me? I just struck out the side.
