Do you really think I care about what people like you think about me or whether you listen to me or not?



You obviously do care, or you wouldn't respond to every post like some crack whore looking to get your fix. Just go away

You are posting almost exactly the same BS that he posts so I think it was natural to ask if you were him. Your claim that the non-flush card is more likely to show up last is equally ridiculous as his "Singer flip" theory.



I didn't make that claim. I simply reported what I had observed. I did not generalize those results to VP at large. It's a distinction that may elude you, but an important one nonetheless. I realize that my experience alone encompasses an insufficient sample size. I could actually whip out the ol' helmet cam and turn it on every time I held a single face card to record all instances of drawing three suited and one non-suited card. But that would take many, many hours, it would slow my play down dramatically, and more to the point, the results would still be shat upon by you and others even if they DID show an anomaly.

Gee, how many people do you call crack whores in the course of the average week?

I didn't call anyone a crack whore. I think your relentless pursuit to argue, stir up trouble, insult, and create conflict appears to be a habit of your's, one that in my opinion, you can't break. Like an addiction an crack whore has.

Do you really think I care about what people like you think about me or whether you listen to me or not? You've spent a wasted life slithering from one stinky Montana machine parlor to another, probably inhaling several metric tons of cigarette smoke and burning tens of thousands of gallons of gas (it's a long way from Libby to Billings) in the process. At some point you may have even enjoyed doing that, but I suspect that you've woken up in the middle of the night many times realizing that you now can't do anything else. You're stuck. The only emotion I feel toward you is pity, if for no other reason than you've been crisscrossing one of the most beautiful states in America and what you've stopped to experience is...its keno machines.

All that said, I still don't know what particular "berserk button" of yours I might have pushed. If you could explain just what it is that set you off, I could avoid it in the future. Otto in "A Fish Called Wanda" continually warned, "Don't call me stupid!" and was then inevitably called stupid on a number of occasions. Indiana Jones didn't like snakes and kept winding up in pits full of them. You may not like anyone suggesting that VP machines aren't random. Who knows?



You know, Eaglesnest, you are one piece of work. You are making me laugh now. Smoking has been banned from bars/casinos in Montana for five years now. And on any given day you might find me anywhere from Troy in the northwest corner, farther west than Libby, to Hardin in the southeast corner. Or anywhere from Sydney in the Northeast corner to Hamilton in the southwest corner.....and all towns in between. That is....when I feel like working. I've got it all, buddy. Big Sky country, wide open spaces, some of the most scenic country in America....and machine plays. I'm as happy as a machine pro can be.

To show you how magnanimous I am I will give you my take on what you should do with your 8K bankroll in Vegas. Stay away from the 50 cent FPDW. With no promotion or major cashback the ROR is to high. There's no money in 25 cent FPDW. I would mention adding a little income through advantage slots but you've never given any indication that you know anything about them. What you need to do is slither in and out of the small blind no limit holdem games of Vegas....that is, if you can play like you say you can. Much less variance.

That's my honest take on your situation. And please, make me laugh some more.

P.S. Good luck slithering in and out of the poker games.

Well, the first step in my recovery, then, will be no longer talking to you. Rejoice!

It may have been banned, but the last time I was in Montana (this spring), people were happily puffing away everywhere. These shitty little keno/slot parlors aren't going to risk driving away customers by telling them they're not allowed to smoke.

How much of Montana's magnificent scenery do you see from the inside of a casino?

I used to play advantage slots quite a bit, but almost no opportunities exist today and the ones that do exist are intensively vultured. I agree that .50 FPDW carries too high an RoR for an 8K bankroll. Poker is a better opportunity, but most of the games I've played in this month have been pretty rocky. And many of the ones that weren't were populated by many quite good players. I've only been making about $10 an hour there.

Thank you for the legitimate advice.

The smoking ban is strictly enforced. I presume you are sitting in the 1-2 NLH. Steer away from 100 BB buy-ins. You can get yourself into to many tough decision situations with that size stack. If you can't put 200 BB on the table, which you can't with your size bankroll----that has bill pressure on it----then only put 60 BB on the table.

Eaglesnest is banned, nuclear option, for trolling. The whole of this thread, and some other comments in others.

I really tried to hang in there with him, through all the snide comments calling other people snide, through all the ad hominem attacks and implied insults while declaring his umbrage at other people, either perceived or real, doing the same to him. But I'm done with it, here in this thread, and with others. If he's that much better than all the rest of us, then he's wasting his time here. And if he's not, he's wasting our time on answering his insulting condescension. Either way, it's not bantering, it's not informative, it's simply argument and negativity. Better luck elsewhere, Eaglesnest.

In the end, I really tried to give the guy some solid advice. Sometimes I really don't believe myself. Why would I care about a guy like that? Why would I give him advice? It goes back to my street tramp, thumb bum, train riding days. I was kicked in the teeth so many times by society that I lost count. But I never gave up on humanity. He has absolutely no faith in humanity. He is actually pretty weak compared to a lot of them I ran into. I take no solace in his demise here.

You are just a nice guy. You did the same to TournamentKing... gave him some good advice while he was insulting you the whole time.
