Im not doing this for the benefit of the BJ "experts" on here. if you don't believe go elsewhere or find out for yourself, alternatively shut up and wait til the start of the week when I update
Nobody wants to meet up with a random stranger who just started posting on this forum a few days ago.
I never noticed any unusual results, such as a losing steak after increasing the bet size, and I've varied the bet from the minimum ($5 or $10) to the max ($500). I've had several hand-pays on $500 Blackjacks (which really suck because the win is only $750 but the W2G shows a $1250 win), so betting the max never triggered any kind of losing streak for me.
I like the Shufflemaster machines. The machine keeps a running tally of your credits, no chips to constantly fiddle with, the rules are favorable (especially in PA) with surrender, players can jump in and out without slowing down the game, and my understanding is that each player has their own deck, so there are no "mistakes" that can be made to affect the other players...for instance you can't take the dealer's bust card or whatever. Once players are informed of this (and they accept it as true) there is no more griping about anybody else's play.
I'm not disputing your results, and can't comment on whether "rigging" the machine is likely or even possible, but I have a lot of experience with these games, and as far as I'm concerned they are on the level.
As I keep saying if you aren't a fulltime Pro do not post to this thread
I will post the results of actual game results video, Gaming commission comment and casino response, through todays contact, at the start of the week. After that Im going to contact the national media and let them run it to ground
I just noticed you have been a member for a solid 8 months, does that bestow extra kudos????
Quote: bjmongooseIf ANYONE can tell me they have played these machines with normalish results Im all ears, nobody even remotely yet.
My interpretation was that your asking for "ANYONE" to comment overrode the "fulltime pro" qualification to post a response.
Quote: bjmongooseI think people are missing the point here, Im not some disgruntled BJ player pissed off for losing some cash
no, you are playing a certain game IMO
either that or world fame awaits you
stop quoting Twain and go check it for yourself, no need to "wait" for me

Ah, that's better.
Now I can just check the thread to see the TV times and shows our world famous member will be on when he proves this, in the meantime I won't have to "stay in suspense"

Are you calling yourself a leader? Or others lazy & lacking intelligence?

"Being slightly paranoid is like being slightly pregnant - it tends to get worse."
Molly Ivins
Now the important thing is you can either be seen as paranoid, since plenty of people have said they played these machines and not witnessed what you've said, or you can post some numbers so some form of statistical analysis can be done to see hey maybe your on to something at casino X or the far more likely scenario the results while representing bad luck are well within the range of probabilities. I mean if you are willing to lose money to test this do a large number of hands at a high bet and see what frequency you win and lose at and do a large number of bets at a low bet and see what frequency you win and lose at.
You are being overly hostile to me, read everything I said carefully. Im just telling you how it APPEARS/SEEMS to others. I haven't even discounted you or your theories. I know there been rigged and misrepresented machines.
If you are truly trying to help the misinformed public and save them from the evil BJ machines. Just explaining what you have witnessed, won't work. People swear they have seen Bigfoot, aliens, chupacabra and Elvis at their local bar.
You'll need to get some video proof.
If you can predict outcomes that correlate directly with the size of your bets, it will be very compelling. I'm certain after some real video evidence of what your claiming, some prominent gaming figures will be very interested in preforming some controlled testing.
Right now, I can assure you your not getting though to anyone who isn't already convinced all machines are rigged. Your probably hurting your cause with what you have said so far. Especially With the management aspect. It's common knowledge most casino employees are no very knowledgeable about gaming They are even more prone to misconception and wacky theories. Usually the people who are smart and have a good understanding and end up doing something else like Advantage play, consultant, writers, or moving up to Upper management.
I have played 10s of thousands of hands on various Video blackjack machines at a profit though various methods throughout the US (even in Laughlin) and millions on VP and slots
As far as your personal challenge to me, I have been down this road a few times. Everyone backs out or PURPOSELY creates convoluted terms that keep changing from the original intentions, like sports, that has nothing to do with this whatsoever.
I'm certainly willing to escrow $5k ASAP for proof of the money and an honest intention of some challenge. If your also willing to do the same thing. Tell me when. And then we can find someone reputable to hold it. Im sure a few member here can verify That I can muster up a few dollars if your serious.
If nothing else (I currently live in vegas and have for over 20 years) We can meet up in vegas and ill bring something to record the BJ session and your predictions.
Another one bites the dust.
performance, 30% of your action is like money in the bank !
Quote: AxelWolfI just got a PM from someone who wants 30% of my action on a challenge regarding this, depending on the terms of the bet. Ill ask if I can reveal there Identity.
Maybe I'm confused. But why would anyone want 30% of action on a VBJ coin in play?
Quote: RSMaybe I'm confused. But why would anyone want 30% of action on a VBJ coin in play?
I'm guessing he wants 30% of the bet on whether BJ is gaffed action not the VBJ itself and that would be a great bet.
Re read. He was suggestion he could use his methods to out preform me because i probably haven't even played a VBJ machine. The bet would be made on who could do better, not on the actual playing. Since he is so confident, surely he would give me odds.Quote: RSMaybe I'm confused. But why would anyone want 30% of action on a VBJ coin in play?
Im not arguing gaff or no gaff. I'm arguing his ability to make more money in casinos and the fact he believe he more experienced therefore there's more merit to what he claims .
He has not found a way to take advantage of the situation.
I know he will say it's only gaffed towards making you lose. With some out of the box thinking there certainly a way to profit, I can think of a few directions I would explore.
your sample size is very small
LOL. Axiom Refused to play me scalable for money, he thought I was hustling him.Quote: mcallister3200Can I parlay Axel in a gaming challenge with anyone vs. Axel in a spelling bee?

Really, what would you challenge? Axiom,scalable or hustling? And on the very first game perhaps, he might challenge the word to.Quote: teddysYou already lost.

Finally - where have I said that Im not prepared to do the video? I posted yesterday that after having an actual employee AGREE with what I was saying and volunteering to speak with what she termed the casino CEO it seemed reasonable to me to hear that out - are you saying that's a waste of time? If so why?
Here are my thoughts - I DONT CARE IF THESE MACHINES ARE "SANCTIONED" OR NOT they behave in a way that will 100% rip people off and I don't think the public at large will find that acceptable hence if there is no satisfaction with the casinos or Gaming Im going to have everything documented by myself and PI's and contact the national media, simple as that
Many thanks for your post I really appreciate it

thanks again
Quote: bjmongooseCOACHBELLY That's excellent to hear & well done. Would have any idea of any regulatory differences between Pa & Nv? I would be over the moon if these WERE working normal here because it would be a perfect fit with my sports betting timewise. Are you still playing? Have you played after the live tables started and did they continue to perform? I have been in touch with an employee of the SM's who advised that they can be set in many ways to control payout/yield and in fact were NOT legal in Nevada at one point however he was going to check if that had changed.
Many thanks for your post I really appreciate it
Axel, let it go. You are too smart for this. Everyone knows he is not going to put up money for a fair bet and that he is not going to post video to support his cause. I would be willing to bet this poster has been here before under other names.
