Ahigh is back!!!!!!!! (Thanks for not booking my bet, sodawater...LOL)



Not so fast ...

Ahigh posted: "This person specifically asked me to respond to this post with a private message sent to me on GoodShooter. I obliged.

However, this is not representing a return to the forum for me guys."

So, it looks like he only "sort of is back."

Or, he returned only to announce that he isn't returning, a nearly zen-like pronouncement.
"What, me worry?"

That is very true. I guess I should have put an asterisk after my comment...haha

Thank god sodawater didn't book my bet though. Ahigh's one post would have been enough to sink me.

I think this conversation has veered far enough off path. How did we manage to get from Ahigh to stereotyping race??

Hi Guys,
I am new to this forum and had been playing "Pontoon" or Spanish 21 for years. lately, I have been travelling to some overseas casino where they only have Blackjacks. Been in there a few rounds and lost some serious money. Coming back, I check most Gurus and Professors and found that they advocate Card Counting. To me and in this era, where all or almost all Asians casinos are using CSMs, Continious Shuffling Machines, the used cards are placed back into the machines for immediate shuffling. In addition, the cards within these machines are continiously shuffled. So, where in the name of a "Professional" can you count the hi-lo and "rich" cards??? The counters are a joking lot and need their motives and advices checked and re-check. Please tell me I am wrong....

No. There was nothing arbitrary about the post to which I responded, in which the poster suggested that "blacks" bet the field more than "whites."

I am not arguing semantics -- I oppose bigotry.

Not sure exactly what you mean.

Do you claim that everybody but me thinks that it is okay to yell in anger "Hey Jap!" at person who seems to be a Japanese citizen?

Do you assert that everybody shares the view that "non-white" people generally try to showoff by wrapping big bills around the outside of a wad of small bills?

Perhaps you think that everyone believes that "Asians" are always at the baccarat table continually making fun of others in one of their native Asian languages.

Or, could it be that everyone except me is convinced that Germans eat a lot of sauerkraut?

Please explain.

Ahigh has his cronies over here to cause some trouble still. They know if they get banned they can just go to the other forum and talk among themselves some more. You can pick them out in a second because they attack at the first chance they get.

Ahigh, Harley, Tupp, and DeMango cause more trouble than they are worth.

And Tupp doesn't even understand the difference between bigot and stereotype. There's a big difference.

So, let me get this straight -- because I defend against bigotry, you argue that I am narrow minded and you label me as "PC?"


Quote: EvenBob

Alright, you have made accusations about me, which I consider false. I do not see bigotry everywhere, but, when I see it, it exists.

I challenge you to back-up your accusations by listing all of the instances in which you think that I have seen bigotry. We will then determine whether or not bigotry exists in those instances, and we will determine whether or not the instances constitute me "seeing bigotry everywhere."

Well, are you up for the challenge?

Bigotry is hatred or contempt resulting from intolerance.

Stereotyping does not rise to that level; consider it a grouping based on perceived characteristics.

Big difference.

Make a note of it: my post about field bettors and baccarat players is not evidence of bigotry.

After umpteen visits to casinos around Vegas, I finally bumped into Ahigh. I saw him downtown, and he was at the craps table shooting. (I just watched him since he doesn't know me, but I definitely knew it was him because of his show) He was actually shooting pretty good, but I was cracking up because after he left the table I saw a couple dealers look at each other and roll their eyes. LOL

I must say that I was impressed with his shot (although I do understand that random shooters can do well too).

Same old Ahigh. Claims he has some sort of controlled shot, but can't prove it. Promised he wasn't coming back to this forum and lied. Feels bad about his life so attacks others. Ho hum.

That is what he reports.

Another crapster, talking to his friend, said that Ahigh "just screwed up."

Wow, I guess in Ahigh's world those are fighting words: Ahigh told him to shut up unless he wants to get into a fight.

Gee, a tough guy in real life as well as on the internet.

Impressed?

Not so much ...

Maybe he bought those high tech security cameras to catch clear pics of the myriad crapsters who follow him home with bats and chains in their hands, hellbent on payback.

Ah, the internet: I do love it so.

Of course the dealers rolled their eyes. They see

meeee, the throw says, look at meeeee......

And they don't win more than anybody else so the
