This is sounding a lot like my last trip. Couldn't catch a break at any table anywhere; I was working on my TR badges for the bonus points, so I just walked the Strip, hit every CET property and basically hurled money into a bottomless pit for the afternoon. That suffering finished, I returned to where I was staying, plopped myself down at a 6:5 VBJ unit (one of those blue ones I can't identify the maker of) with 50, and ended up leaving like four hours later, having learned that the machine locks up and forces a handpay at 5000. I've been trying pretty hard to ignore how much I'm losing by getting my BJs cut short, but at the same time, my bankroll can't deny that it's been far less frustrating.

As other people keep reminding me, "If it isn't working, stop doing it and try something else. The worst that can happen is that doesn't work either."



OUCH!

phone prices have gotten ridiculous, or I've been buying cheap. Paid like $800 for a S7, I don't even think that was the newest model. The phone I had before that was $150. Before that it was always the free phones from the new 2 year contract. My current laptop cost less then my phone :(

You need to become a Leykis 101 student
like me. Go to Youtube and look up Tom
Leykis. There are hundreds of his old
radio shows there.

He tells the truth about women and our
relationships with them. You will have
dozens of 'oh my god' moments when
you say, this guy is 100% right on. Women
mostly have an agenda that they hide from
you very well, and he tells you how to spot
them and deal with women in general.

Tom was divorced 4 times and he shares
his wisdom. If he had only been around
30 years ago..

Problem with women is you cannot give them much confidence or theyll lose respect for you and the relationship will hit the fan. Women wont admit this, but they secretly love to be told what to do and be controlled. This doesnt mean you disrespect them, but you need to put your foot down at all times while at the same time not show any insecurities.

You also need to make it seem like you also have multiple women at the same time youre with them and joke with them about it as well in a serious but playful manner. This is psychology 101. Believe it or not women will lose any desire to cheat when you do this. Women cheat to 'get back at you' or 'make you feel bad'. If you basically tell them you dont care, they will never do it. Sounds crazy but its how humans especially women work.

Its the same thing with drinking age limits in other countries. They have a lower drinking age limit but somehow have less drinking and driving fatalities or drinking related crimes compared to the US. Humans, when they are given freedom to do what they want, they will do less of it, but if theyre restricted to do something, they will have a rush to break the law more often. Once again all psychology and it applies to relationships as well.

Thank me again later.
Any private business open to the PUBLIC (ie. droned out casinos) cannot have a criminal trespass enforced against an individual without GOOD CAUSE (Disruptive or Disorderly conduct). You will never go to prison for being thrown out of a casino for legal advantage play and then returning because it's simply unconstitutional 'as applied' to the individual. 'As applied' constitutional issues must FIRST be raised in DISTRICT COURT (trial court) to have it thrown out. You CANNOT raise it on APPEAL This is the best kept secret in the world of casinos not just in Vegas but everywhere in the country. Thank me later.

You cannot appreciate the show without
listening to the callers. The men that call
in with all these problems and the women
that call and tell Tom he's exactly right to
never ever trust a woman. And the pissed
off women that call Tom names because
he exposed their games and men are
learning how to deal with them. I have
it on in the background all day, I have
learned a ton about my past relationships
and what the women were really doing.
Men are idiots, we're way too trusting.

Look at Johnny Carson. His lawyer got
on his knees and begged him not to marry
his 3rd wife without a prenup. But dumb
trusting Johnny, 'she would never screw me
over'. But she did, to the tune of $35 mil,
which was a ton of money 35 years ago.
Still is.

Ok. This guy is just disgusting. If you're having problems hooking up (the subject of the linked thread) it's probably because you're listening to someone like him.

A clue - yes, if you're worried, flush the condom. Wrap it and take it with you. DON'T put hot sauce in it, unless you want a visit from public health inspectors. IF she somehow EVER touches your used condom again (unlikely ), and sees your bloody-looking leavings, she's going to report you as a public nuisance to the county health department. Going around having sex without disclosing your bloody pus-filled discharge to your new partner tends to get your name on their lists.

You want to get laid, be her genuine friend. Be fun to be around, relaxed, interested. Flirt. Make it clear she's sexy to you, but you also want to enjoy her outside of bed. She'll give it up. It also leaves the door open for future booty calls. And promises nothing in romance or permanence.

Women all cry for equal rights, but when it's time to pay the bills, dinner, etc., they look the other way. Interesting.

This is where men get confused. It's not the 'asshole' that gets you laid and more women, it's the fact you care less, show less insecurities, and give off the vibe that you have other options. This deprives them of the ability to 'want' to cheat as I mentioned before why and it's due to basic psychology. They then become obsessed with you since they're always wondering what you're up to. The more a woman thinks about you when you're not around, the more they fall in love with you.

Many many women love it when you
treat them like crap. Don't call them
back, stand them up, never compliment
them. I had several GF's who I treated
like gold and they ended up going back
to the guy that treated them like crap
every time. It took me years and years
to figure out that many women have
low self esteem and think they deserve
to be with men who treat them in a
dismissive way.

It's his game and his money, the combo
is like a huge chick magnet. This guy called
in once and said he looked in the trash at
ATM's until he found a receipt that had
a 6 figure balance on it. No account number
or name, so they get tossed.

He made copies and when he would give
a woman his number in a bar, he would get
out one of the ATM receipts and write his
number on it. Every time, she would either
call that night or the next day. Over the
years, other men have called and said
they did this and the results were stellar.
A woman see's you have a bank balance
of $230K and they break a fingernail
punching your number into their phone.

Says the guy who thinks it's normal to never get BJs from your SO.

I listened to Tom sometimes back in LA and like most talk radio, he is a comic book character describing a comic book world.

Meaning there is plenty of truth in what he says. And it is true that our society is so pro woman anti male it is like a comedy sketch. I think even basic advice for men, like women might get pregnant to trap you, is now conidered misogyny because it suggests that women are less than 100% good and that it's ok for a man to look out for himself.

Tom is like a comedy sketch in the opposite direction. And maybe some guys need to hear that stuff. But the problem is if you are a credulous type with low self esteem yourself and you make it your gospel, you'll kind of make a fool of yourself.

I'm reasonably certain Tom would agree if you spoke to him off the air.

But in a nutshell, I'd point out that if you're entire viewpoint on women is that you are terrified of losing in a relationship and only want to get over on them to "win" and go arouund bragging about getting laid like a teenager, you probably have some very significant self esteem issues yourself.

Yeah, Ace, you know how fond i am of you, but I'm not going to debate this further here. We all went 'round on it several years ago, and nobody convinced anybody.

I will agree that your "hungry for a woman" come-on was not your best approach. I think it does help.for you (any guy) to be less interested (whether it's true or not) than she is initially. But the women you attract with the 'crap on them' approach aren't worth your time in the long run, either.

I listened to Tom sometimes back in LA and like most talk radio, he is a comic book character



He's an entertainer with a niche audience.
I would dismiss a lot of what he says if
I hadn't seen and lived some of it for
the last 50 years. I have story after
story and many that I'm sure I've forgotten.
He speaks more truth than nonsense.

Don't know who Leykis is,

But here is his 101 rules I found just now, which you can read.

http://www.ign.com/boards/threads/leykis-101-this-is-for-men-that-want-to-get-laid-there-is-no-love-or-morals-involved-here.145890532/



Tom Leykis was married four times by his early 30s. His advice is aimed entirely at his former self. It's one thing for the 19 - 26 year-old guy who hasn't had the life experience to that there is anything they may want outside the sex part. Once you've made it past the stage it's just as good to strike out on your own terms than hit a homerun playing by someone else's rules.

I don't like the bar scene and I am not going to strategize the timing of phone calls. I like coffee and if a lady joins me it's even better regardless of what it may or may not lead to. I don't care for alcohol, so I'm not going to endure it simply because some guys need it to get to certain places. If I had a good time on the last date and think I might have a good time on the next one, I'll ask her out again and it's not going to be based around the probability of what might happen after. And if it doesn't work out the way I'm hoping I can still go about my life the way I want without breaking stride.

It has absolutely nothing to do with a-hole or nice guy, it is entirely about being able to take care of yourself so that you can take care of others and they can take care of you. And it's really weird if what it means to be "taken care of" doesn't change throughout your life. And if you stay stuck on those teenage needs for so long, just find a job and budget a part of your paycheck for it

A woman who I can keep if I treat her bad? All this game playing? It's not for me. The only thing that has a chance of working is being yourself. But not if you're a puppy dog in heat; you'll have to have good manners.

And then you find you're playing another
game called 'keeping the wife happy'. This
is a not only a thankless job, it's also endless.

Charleton Heston was married for 50 years.
He said the secret was to constantly apologize,
even when you've done nothing, even when
you don't know what the apology is for. You
have to constantly placate the woman.

I know guys that say they have wonderful
marriages. Yet when I spend any time with
them, it's obvious all they do is kiss their
wife's ass and not even realize they're doing
it. Of course she's wonderful, dude, you've
completely sold out. You're just an extension
of her now. Try not doing something her way
just once and see what happens.

I once heard the way to keep your spouse happy, the key to a happy marriage, is to "Yes them to death and do as you please."

Sage advice.

Sure, Ace, lots of schaden in that for me.
You never think about my needs, Ace,
Nothing has changed, it's your money so
you think it's all about you.

Sigh..

That's what Heston was saying. Constantly
say what they want to hear and get away
with whatever you can.

That explains a lot
EB is the female he complains about above.
No room for 2 women in a relationship.
If the House lost every hand, they wouldn't deal the game.

Duh.

Again, if you don't have some self esteem issues, what's the big deal? Women like to be told what they wanna hear. So do it and make them happy. Then, because you make them happy, they'll want to make you happy.

How is this not preferable to constantly being in a petty contest?

Horrible advice. The way to keep a woman and make her obsessed with you and never cheat is to be the person she fell in love to begin with. Dont change for no one. Live your life the way you were living before you met her. Too many people meet the girl of their dreams and then 'change' to the point they're not the same person anymore. Not to mention, men get too soft as you described above. Women love to secretly be swept off their feet. They want you to lead. They want to be 'controlled' in a way, but they won't admit that. You also need to put an image in her mind that you're happy regardless or not she's with you and that nothing will change regardless if you break up. She doesn't want to tag along a puppy with her, she and all women want to chase the man and be a part of their extravagant life.
Any private business open to the PUBLIC (ie. droned out casinos) cannot have a criminal trespass enforced against an individual without GOOD CAUSE (Disruptive or Disorderly conduct). You will never go to prison for being thrown out of a casino for legal advantage play and then returning because it's simply unconstitutional 'as applied' to the individual. 'As applied' constitutional issues must FIRST be raised in DISTRICT COURT (trial court) to have it thrown out. You CANNOT raise it on APPEAL This is the best kept secret in the world of casinos not just in Vegas but everywhere in the country. Thank me later.

The alternative would be to find a woman who is able to take care of herself. The only way you wouldn't think that's a viable option is if you're projecting your own shortcomings onto the opposite sex
