Video poker speed challenge answered

Quote: bobbartop

Oh really? I have nothing to apologize about. How dare you call me an "internet police". Is my concern for animals something to be ashamed about? I said I was done, all is well, so why don't you let it drop. I will if you will.

And it's interesting that you took "a side" on this when you don't know me, and you don't know him. And I will self-appoint myself a policeman and stick my nose in it any damn time I feel like it, if it concerns a cat. Just drop it.

Ok. Deal. Thanks.

I like cats too. Would like to own an ocelot or cerval. Watching videos of stray cats fighting on youtube is funny though.

NathanV,

I redacted the key words in your post to keep you private channel private.

Thanks for clarifying.

We're a little short on humor these days. I hope you'll stick around anyway.

I was the first one to welcome him. I was very impressed. But I just saw pictures of horrible things the Koreans are doing to dogs. In my opinion, President Trump could speak to that.

It doesn't matter where on the globe you live, what color or race you are, a DOG will protect your children and give his life to protect you and your family. So yes, I'm a little short of humor these days. You can see all over the news and internet horrible things that are done to innocent dogs and cats. I'm not apologizing. I got called an internet police. That fries me. What if it had been something WORSE than a bad cat joke? I guess I should keep my mouth shut?

I wasn't speaking for you, and didnt apologize for you. . Everybody is a bit on edge around here.

You said you were done with it, so be done with it.

I just rescued one a week ago, coming from the casino on a dark rainy night. I drove to where I could u-turn, went back to check what the black thing was in the middle of the busy road. Hopefully it was just a piece of cloth. But it wasn't, it was an injured black cat, still alive. I picked him up, took him to emergency, and we're working on him. I may name him Lucky.

I worked at a county dog/cat lock up and watched innocent, healthy ones get put down twice a week for no reason. Bob should be at their door protesting.

A few years back during one of the hottest days in the summer(GF says it was not summer, it was just really hot, I disagree) while coming out of a parking lot we saw a little kitten slowly crawl up under a car near the engine.
It was in horrible condition, it was filthy with motor grease, super skinny and obviously dehydrated and panting.

I really think it would have died that day(perhaps when the other car took off). I was able to fish it out and get it in our car (It just laid on my lap without any fight and that's how I knew it was in bad shape) and get it home. We already had too many pets and I really didn't want another cat. We put it in the bathroom with food and water and all was well. It took a very long time before it would come out (weeks) and even longer before it would let us near her or go near the other cat. Our plans were to find it a good home, well that was at least 2 years ago. Her name is Spirit, but we just call her Whittie. Is it strange we have nicknames for our pets and not just name them their nicknames in the first place?

I still think she got some brain damage from the way she acts, but that's ok, she can be funny. She is now FAT and happy.

p.s. Cat hair is very annoying and new leather furniture is a bad choice if you don't follow through with your intentions to protect it at all costs.

I have no idea as I've never played VP there. Optimal conditions would be slant tops of the same style as in the video with max bet and deal on the same side, max bet button not individually incrementing each credit before the deal, and of course the machines being close to each other and having buttons in perfect condition.

I'm going to ask one more time. As you can see, NathanV avoided my question about the cat. Either it was a "joke", a very bad joke and not funny at all, or he killed a cat. Which is it? If he had just replied in the first place I would not be making a big deal out of it. If it was just a joke, I would have been done with it.

But, if he did kill a cat, I urge you to disqualify him from participating in this video poker speed challenge. At the very least, I suggest that you bring someone with you when meeting him, do not go meet him alone. Meet him in a public place. Perhaps in front of the police station.

Can you please give me a link. Might it have been a joke about the Schrödinger's cat?

I'll be sure to check it out, thanks.

One weird thing is the strategy I have down the best is 9/6 Jacks or Better, but I almost always play it with a $5500+ Royal Flush, so I'll have to reprogram myself to not immediately prefer the RF3s to the high pairs and the suited Tens to the unsuited high cards, among all the other small details.

I sent you a link in private message. There's nothing to see other than me playing with my cat and a non-serious title that was a joke between me and the people I intended to share it with.

Got it. I see nothing objectionable about the video itself, but I can see how some cat lovers wouldn't care for the title, which I found to obviously be a joke.

Anyway, I'd like to remind the forum that the two-machine record is currently 2,544 hands per hour. Here again is the video:

Nathan I mean no disrespect, but... there s always a but. How do we know that the video is not sped up. Even speeding it not o 1.2 wouldn't make it much different but would increase your hands greatly. Again no disrespect, just asking the question..

Pressing the buttons are real time, the beep of the machine is real time, the music in the background is real time. I don't see any evidence of fakery.
