Please forgive me if a similar message to this also appears. I sent one
off early this morning, and it has not yet shown up on vpFREE. I can only assume that it has disappeared into the Yahoo! Black Hole, never to be seen again. So, I am trying once again, this time from my private mailbox.

==========================================
Please do forgive me, Paladin. Neither the content nor the tenor of your previous posts gave me an indication that you were so sensitive. Should we have need of any discourse in the future, I will endeavor not offend your sensibilities again!
===========================================
>>>>>>>>>I converse with players of all denoms.
===========================================
Yes, I have noticed this in your more recent postings. This is merely coincidental, I'm certain, with your establishment of a website, on which it is possible for list members to engage in playing gambling games.
============================================
>>>>>>>>>>The problem I have is when people get a really valuable piece of information and don't understand that sometimes sharing that information vastly accelerates its fungibility. I don't mean to condescend, but maybe if
you were in my shoes, and knew what I knew, you'd see it more my way.
Actually, I quite agree with the above premise. I see no benefit and some potential harm in advertising unusually juicy plays. There is no way to control the greedy among us who are all too happy to descend in droves, and burn out such plays.
BTW, I understand your position on this better than you might think. I have some very good friends who are successful and dedicated AP's. They have been patient and kind in explaining to me the fragile nature and the slim edge, that is available to them. But that's NOT what were discussing, is it?
===============================================
>>>>>>>>>Harry's second thought was more in line. You'd be surprised who'd line up for a 4% play at quarters (I was). That's $50 an hour with little
risk. A much, much better play than $1 FPDW with .5% cb, which is also
$50 an hour for most people.
Exactly my thoughts. Therefore I don't understand the purpose of your message which states: "I wouldn't call 4% at quarters good".
================================================
Quarter players are in a different universe, and they really don't
affect the casino's bottom line. Well, not usually (LOL). Quarter players who out plays at higher levels I have no use for, such as I have no use for writers who sometimes don't realize their actual, as opposed to intended audience.
==================================================
I agree that quarter players should mind their own own business and not out plays at higher denoms. There is a certain "meanness" in doing this, that I truly don't understand.
I have absolutely no idea who or what you are referring in your comment about writers and their "intended audiences." Do you care to elucidate further?
What you say is true about a play being good if it only benefits me. Well, almost.
=================================================
See, I KNEW that we could agree about something! ( - :
==================================================
>>>>>>>>>>......Hey, at least I'm in the group and not one of maybe
three dozen pros who cull this board looking for stuff they can burn
down personally. Maybe you should address your complaints to them.
=================================================
Well I certainly would chastise them, if I only knew who they were. Since
they only lurk and never post, how would I find their addresses to mete out
the appropriate tongue lashing?
BTW, I don't recall "addressing a complaint" to you at all. I was responding to a message, posted by Harry, about an earlier post that you had made.
Again, if you were offended, I do apologize.

Harry, most probably he meant exactly what he said. I believe a play is only good to Paladin if it personally benefits HIM. Since I doubt that he ever plays at the .25c denom. (excepting possibly 100 play) a 4% advantage at quarters would only cause the casino to be infested with annoying fleas.
