Does vpFree Endorse "Questionable Beat The Casino Scams" ?

Does vpFree Endorse "Questionable Beat The Casino Scams" ?

No.

I think the link to this article does a disservice to vpFree members,
even with the usual vpFree disclaimers.

I, OTOH, believe that vpFREE members should be exposed
to what's happening in the world of video poker (and
gambling) and give them credit for being able to make their
own judgments about whether something is a scam.

The exact same sentiment and policy should apply to Rob Singer, and his
writings are about video poker. Why are you depriving vpFree membership
of his posts. Jean often, if not always, has a pecuniary interest in
all the subjects she writes about, Rob, on the other hand, provides his
thoughts and insights gratis.

Will vpFree provide links to Rob's weekly articles? Are you still
referencing Free^2 topics of discussion on vpFree?

It does.

vpFREE has been exposed to Singer and his systems. They're
not forbidden topics.

Why are you depriving vpFree membership of his posts.

As I've told you previously, Rob stopped posting on vpFREE
of his own accord.

This comment has no relevance since your premise is inaccurate.
However, AFAIK neither is paid for posting on internet forums,
and Rob's books aren't being given away for nothing. In any
event, someone's income (or lack thereof) from gambling products
isn't a factor in allowing or disallowing vpFREE participation.
Anyone who observes the posting rules is welcome.

But it is interesting that you bring it up. What is your point? Do
you object to people deriving income from their expertise? I don't.
Are you saying that Rob is more credible because he only sells a
book, while Jean sells books and several other products? I don't.

Will vpFree provide links to Rob's weekly articles?

vpFREE has posted his columns or provided a link to them
continuously for several years.

Are you still referencing Free^2 topics of discussion on vpFree?

Sounds like a rhetorical question.

No, I'm not posting FREEvpFREE topics on vpFREE any longer
because there has only been one major thread for some time now
on FvF and because I'm no longer trying to promote FvF as a venue
for off-topic threads - vpFREE_Online is now available for the ones
that I had in mind.

Wow! I didn't think much on vpFREE slipped by me. Apparently this
one did - seems like the group has been "online" for 2 mo now.
