If, after a major winning streak, you spend the next month playing hands to yourself at home with fake chips so you can push through the “inevitable bad cards that are certainly due”………..youuuuuuuuuu might not be an AP.

Quote: GWAEI took a 1k payday loan in 2002. It was never re paid and I closed that bank account. They still to this day call me every few months and threaten prison.
Of course. You didn't pay it back.
All the terms I've seen say you pay no interest if you pay it back within 24 hours.
A handful of the loan stores are open later than banks, and you can often get a loan for far more than the ATM transaction limit. Make the play. Hit up the bank in the morning, pay off the loan. Zero transaction fees.
May the cards fall in your favor.

Not to be rude, but you do seem like you played the Payday Loan place. Took their $1,000 and then closed the bank account when they came looking for their money. Plus, just pay them their $1,000. Just pay them $100 every paycheck until you pay them off.

Lol yeah right. That was when I was young and irresponsible. It is way out of statue of limitations, besides those loans are illegal in PA so it would be wrong of me to pay it back. ;-) let's not get side tracked on this thread. If you would like to start a thread about it then that would be fine. Just make sure you use the term janky in it.

As long as he tips the dealer once in a while I'll give him a break. Any new member won't realize that this is tongue in cheek so in the interest of full disclosure, I am not advocating tipping dealers. :-)
You know this guy that I observed playing blackjack the other day is not an AP. He played three hands, heads up, of $5 each at the $1 table. He was playing well over 100 hands an hour with a fairly fast dealer and had been playing for several hours. The poor guy was down "a lot" and trying desperately to recover.
Each hand requires a .25 cent ante. The ante is waived for wagers $10 and higher. He just couldn't catch a break and couldn't figure out why. I had to bite my tongue as it was none of my business and the damage was already done.

You may not be an AP if surrounding yourself with silly people who think they're witty, but aren't, likely won't make you a genius. Not even with the ultimate device in taking advantage of and cutting corners.
There's a reason that very few, if any, really and significantly beat the system. But, keep trying. You might get lucky.

That's ridiculous and sounds like usury I would find out the maximum allowable annual percentage rate for that state. Perhaps they find a way around it. I have never used a payday loan service but I have heard horror stories. It seems like it's a vicious cycle for some. On the flip side I heard some people were purposely scamming them.Quote: waasnodayWow, I did not know that. That actually does make these rather useful in some situations.

It seems there's one on just about every corner in Vegas.
I know it seems predatory but I'm sure there's been people who have used one in a desperate situations to pay rent or something and it saved their ass.
I would never judge anyone for stiffing them.
It's probably a good business opportunity, I can't blame someone for owning one.
