Bob Dancer's Latest CasinoGaming.com Column

#1

Am I the only person who thinks that Dancer is struggling to find topics to
write about every week? Some of his columns are a real stretch. This one
actually had some useful, or at least interesting, information in it. Just my
opinion.

Barb;
I found it impossible to write a weekly column for Gaming Today and and have decent original content every week*. I finally gave it up. Bob gives it his best, and so does Jean. But when you have to pop one out every week, they aren't all going to be classics.<g>
*GT did not ask for decent original content, BTW. Basically they told me "just write anything" and I still couldn't do it.

I'd like to add that the BD column often makes lurking on vpFREE more
fun.

I'm with you, man. The pressure of writing a great column every week,
since you're always going to be compared to your predecessor, the
great Rob Singer. Big shoes to fill, dude.

:wink:
Actually I was Rob's predecessor, and Dancer was before me and Lenny Frome before him. Rob has cleverly solved the problem by simply writing the same column every week (and GT is quite happy with that).

I can honestly say that Bob Dancer has helped me a greatly in my quest to
become a better VP player. I am in no way anywhere in his league, nor do I
know him personally. I have purchased his products and corresponded on
games and strategies. My play has much improved and I thank him for this.

There is always something to learn from a person willing to share their
expertise.

Well said. I'm a much better player for the choices he made to share
his expertise and am glad he did.
