Questions for Dan Paymar

Dan,

In a VPFree post on July 31, you recommended strategy cards available on www.optimumplay.com. I just tried to go that site, but I was redirected to www.advantageplayer.com, which seems to affiliated with RGE Publishing.

(1) I assume that's probably OK, but in these days of identity theft and similar threats, I want to verify that the redirection is OK before I provide any credit card info. Yes/no?

(2) If yes, (and if you want to enlighten me and others), what are the details of the restructuring? I know that RGE used to be Arnold Snyder's company, but that he sold it to someone else after the casinos all but destroyed Blackjack.

(3) I have a bunch of your strategy cards that I bought 10+ years ago. In these tough VP times, I personally use cards that squeeze every 100th% from game, but I agree philosophically and practically that your KISS approach is best for most people, and I wanted to buy an array of your cards for my wife. I especially wanted your version for 10-6 DDB. But the website does not offer those. Do they exist?

Thanks.

Gman,

Hope you don't mind, as I'm not Dan Paymar, but I do co-own the company and the website to which you are referring. However, I do understand if you wait for clarification from Dan that his site is indeed hosted by RGE Publishing. If you click links within the frame, you are directed to Dan's cue card/software/books ordering information (he accepts paypal and checks) and if you click outside the frame in the white/grey areas, you are directed to our catalog (which accepts checks and CC orders).

Arnold Snyder first became partners in RGE with Viktor Nacht in 2001, then sold the company to him in 2002 when he decided to move on. Viktor was Jean's co-author on "Frugal Video Poker" and helped create and publish the "Frugal Video Poker Scouting Guide." RGE Publishing maintains several websites, including our main AdvantagePlayer.com.

As for Dan's 10/6 DDB card, we do carry it. It's actually the 9/6 card for which you use the same strategy (100.05% return). However, it does appear to be missing from our online catalog, a situation which I will remedy today.

If you have any questions, feel free to email me at bettie@rge21.com or call toll-free 877-798-7743. Thank you,

Bettie
