I'd win if you weren't here making me nervous. I can win a little and keep it when I gamble with the money you give me. The good news the system only relies on $20. Stage 2 might be $30 I'm afraid.. Woo links please.

Quote: AxelWolfWhat the hell are you talking about?
Haven't you ever noticed what the poppies say, the ways they convince themselves they're not gambling negative expected value? They have these dichotomies, and it always is explained away as being someone's fault because how they made them feel. They're almost schizophrenic because they start losing streaks and feel bad, but they blame the people near them for it.

A guy in a local casino where I used to play automatic roulette once in a while was constantly complaining loudly about me playing small bets (2-3-4 numbers at a time at most) being 100% sure the roulette is somehow rigged to pay off the smaller bets and punish the bigger bets placed (not that his bets were that bigger but anyway). It continued day in and day out since he was regular there to the point he started yelling, asking me to leave and so on. I have had enough at that point and said to leave me the f alone or we can take this outside no worries. He did go outside but didn't dare do anything and began looking around and talking to some acquaintances across the street.
Usually I'm non violent and very patient (to a point), but I swear I was calmly calculating what to do next after I knock his teeth in. Many degenerates act like someone is to blame for their "bad luck".

Don't beat yourself up over past mistakes, you are going to f*** up again in the future, quite possibly in the most spectacular fashion, why worry about yesterday's f*** up's when you have tomorrow's f*** up's to look forward to?
You are a f*** up, and f***** up is part of your growth process, embrace the process.

I was at a simulcast facility and an old guy kept losing
he had his son with him - he kept blaming his son, cussing at him - he was saying stuff like, "if you weren't here I'd be way up" - his son wasn't even betting - probably just drove him there
so sad - they myth is that people become wise when they get old - it's not at all true

Disagree, It's not always true, but it's mostly true.

The sheer number of senior citizens who rub the plastic slot screen to "effect" a different outcome disproves that imo

Is this anything like the "I helped you" system:
1. Stand behind one or more people playing, say, blackjack
2. Yell things like "HIT!" "STAND!" "DOUBLE!"
3. When the player walks from the table with a profit, claim, "I helped you! You used my system! Where's my share?"

Perhaps if they arent following basic strategy and u actually helped them...
Its more like calling out a couple of numbers as the ball starts spinning and if u get lucky the person bet your number claiming credit for the choice

Back in the mid 80s on my very 1st visit to a casino I was playing roulette (only game I knew the rules for) when a guy who was very drunk and had a very large wad of cash stumbled up to the table and bet a couple hundred on 26. He also bet all the 4-way combos that included 26. All told he had close to $1K on the table. He lost. He then repeated the exact same bet and lost again. On the 7th or 8th spin 26 hit. He took is winnings and stumbled away.
About 3 years later in Tahoe I'm at the roulette table and again some drunk with a hunch starts betting (don't recall the number). Remembering the previous experience I start putting $5 on the number too. Sure enough, after several losing spins it hits and I'm now ahead about $80.
This was the origin of my winning system for Roulette: The Rich Drunk with a Hunch. Try it (you can thank me later). If you get impatient waiting for a suitable drunk to come along, you can try my related system: Get Stinking Drunk and Wait for a Hunch.
