Poor mudboy John.
Mudboy??
Still trying to turn everything to politics.
Must suck to be a loser and a minority.
Not a loser, wasn't running for anything.
Better watch what you say about conservatives. We're the majority
and
will be for a long time.
I stand by everything that I have said. Only conservatives can
believe the bullshit used to take us to war to steal oil. Lies, all
lies.
We might get mad, close down the borders,
eliminate Federal unions, and have all you bright boys picking
cabbage if you can pass the written test...
A conservative written test....hmmmm. The way W butchers the english
language how hard could that test be. "Spell oil--Iraq. Spell Osama--
-Saddam."
If you don't play VP that often how can you claim long term
strategy
works?
I never claimed that. You are confusing my post with Dick's.
Conservatives make that kind mistake all the time when trying to
identify the enimies of our country.
Are you going to tell me you win everytime in Vegas?
At about 80% trip success, I'm doing OK.
I would
bet it's the liberal in you: arguing positions you know nothing
about.
I will put my VP skills against yours at any time. Only at a real
casino, not tribal.
In defense of Rob let me say this. I used a similar strategy to
his
his original strategy for about 3 months and did quite well.
One of Robs theories is to pull your credits after all they are
wins.
I agree that machines run hot and cold at times, I am not going to
pull credits just because I'm ahead.
Since I play VP for entertainment I'm not willing to risk more
than
$700 at a time and for my wife and I to both play we would have
to.
I generally take about $2k for a 2 night 3 day trip. 80% of the time
I come home a winner. I have had quite a few W2-G's in the last 8-9
years.
I also play for entertainment, I'm going to Reno next month for a
couple days.
If the machine keeps paying we stay if it doesn't we go to another.
Common sense move, don't need singer for that.
I will start on JP, which is very streaky and switch to DB BP or
ducks. then back to JP again. The reason I play JP is that they
have
a 2pair or better game that pays 4000k for 5 of a kind. Much
easier
to hit 5/k than a royal. We both run through all 20 tens and then
stop and see how the other is doing.
I know everyone will say it doesn't make any difference if your
keeping the credits or running them through. This is true but the
key
is getting off machines that aren't paying. If I wager $10 make
$10
and run that into the machine I'm gambling on their money not
mine.
Before Rob I used to sit at the same machine run 3or4 Bennies
through
it in a few hours and go home pi$$ed
Your current common sense strategy is sound. It is, after all, still
gambling. Sometime you win, sometimes you lose. The beauty of VP is
that 1 win can fix a lot of losses. I don't play wild card games,
ordinarily DDB. 10/6 DDB is pretty forgiving. Last Labor Day I hit a
royal for $9,600 at Sam's town. Made up for some major losses. When
I spent 13 months in Vegas in 2002-3, I hit 27 royals on quarter and
better machines. That is far more than average for the play I was
making but I have always said, "I rather be lucky than good." My
strategy for that - play only machines that are ready to hit (that's
funny. Sounds like something singer would tout).
Since we started this we have never had less than $200 in credits
between us. At that point we decide whether to keep going or go
home
with a couple hundred dollar loss.
You credit singer with this?? Tom, come on, you are smarter than
that. Having read singer's lies for so long, I wouldn't give him
credit for anything. He backs up nothing with facts. Continues to
lie and twist truth. He is a poor example of your conservative cause.
On many trips we have had between $600-800 in credits. Sometimes
we'll decide whether to gamble our profit or head home with it.
The best part of all of this is that since November between us we
have had 13 5/k and 2 royals between us. This can't be attributed
to
our strategy but more towards the JP game. $13k on 96% Joker Poker
games in an Indian Casino. Let me also say that this is playing
between 4-8 hours a week. The casino is 90 minutes away so it's
usually once a week sometimes twice.
You can say all you want about negative machines but these have
positively grew my bankroll.
I know everyone will say that it's a streak of great luck. Your
right
but I'm going to have to go into a real bad stretch to get back
into
negative territory. Everytime I think it has to end up pops
another
5/k 3 0f them last week.
This doesn't mean that I don't believe the math behind advantage
play, I do. I just don't beleive that on a VP machine that deals
thousands of hands per second that it can be a precise science as
some on here worship it to be.
I don't know what the exact statistics for the frequency of 5/k
maybe
Dick could tell me please. I do know from simple math that I have
4
combinations to catch a Royal and 13 combinations to catch 5/k.
Given the chance to play this 96% machine or a full pay Deuces
next
ot it I'm going for the JP.
My wife and I have always kept the flags the attendants use for
hand
payouts. We ask them to put the amount and date on them. Some
attendants actually put stickers or draw on them. If anyone
beleives
I'm not telling the truth about this for a little wager I can take
a
digital picture of all the flags and email them.
Mudboy I can't come in and debate you as often as before.
Please explain the mudboy reference. Brown water navy maybe, but
mudboy??
I've been
playing Holdem on line and doing quite well. You know in your
heart
your wrong you really don't need me to verify it for you all the
time.
Sorry to hear that. I am gearing up for the national day of shame
tomorrow. Not spending a dime and, if I had the opportunity, turning
my back to W.
I will come in from time to time to slap you around a bit.
You didn't even connect on this current outing. Just slapping air.
John (not Dick)
