There are a few other errors .....

RFBL: A rating that allows free room food and name-brand liquor.
The L in RFBL means limited. It is a lower level of RFB.

This next one is a typo

Multi-Game Machines
If you�re able to find a game with a positive ER, like Full Pay Deuces Wild (FPDW) or 10/7 Bonus
Poker (10/7BP), then always choose a multi-game over a stand alone machine. Here�s why. Most
casinos take an average of the ""ER for the game when determining comps"", and if you play the
game with the best ER, you�ll be getting comps at a higher rate.

Should be ""ER for the MACHINE when determining comps""

I'm not %100 positive but doesn't double down stud have a very poor EV ?

Still it is an excellent article.

A.P.

The slips were hardly so egregious to rate "highly inaccurate". The
basics of the article are sound and helpful to the lesser
inexperienced player.

The "10/7" game reference is inexplicable and suggests stronger
editing is desirable. I doubt anyone will suffer as a consequence of
the RFBL misnomer.

I'll note that the cb/comp rating of progressives tend to be weaker
than Linda suggests. Still, for very high meters there's good
probability that you'll be disproportionately comped (at the risk of
very high play variance, of course).

Some article text might bear additional clarification, but is bounded
by restrictions on overall length.

Under no circumstance is the article worthy of a dismissive, "Highly
inaccurate."

I agree with Harry on this one. If you disagree with something please
tell us what you find inaccurate so we can agree or disagree with you.
Remarks like this provide no basis for discussion.

Bravo, Harry!

It must be wonderful to be "Cogno Scienti", a person so sure of his
pronouncements that he does not need to even explain WHY another's
writings are "highly inaccurate".

I did find one person's post highly inaccurate. However, it wasn't
anything that Linda has written!
