What do you think she's been doing
for the last 20 years. And no, there
are lots of antique businesses still
open, thousands of them. She was
doing it to make a living and not as
a hobby, and the profit margin
became so low.

I like how you're grasping at straws
trying to convince yourself this
fly by night venture you're in has
legs.



Lol. Profit margin was so low

Classic. Thinks his wife is successful with low profits

Mine are pretty high

And you can stop with criminality accusations

You dont know the law

I have researched it

I have had dealing with police (who couldn't find a crime involved no matter how much they tried.)

All those accusations about me being a criminal are falling into libelous areas especially since some people on here claim to know my identity

P.s. you clearly are accusing redacted and redacted of criminality too since they do very similar if not the same maneuvers as well as the Wizard himself

Where did I say that. In the eyes of
the casino, card counters are criminals.
Doing something shady doesn't mean
you have to be breaking laws, quite
the contrary. Stop letting your obvious

Yes let's move onto good things

I dont want this to become a thread of anger and invective (like the trump threads)

Someone asked what I was doing in the immediate aftermath. Well what anyone does after a robbery.

Shopping!!!

Of course my shopping is on a bit of a larger scale

Check out my first acquisition since the robbery. It was delivered yesterday.







EDIT: Note how the machine is set to FREE PLAY

Oh, you gotta love the irony

Now you have my heart DarkOz.

I am an avid pinball enthusiast. I own 2 machines myself. But neither are nearly as desirable as that game.

Is it an original or a remake? I’m assuming it’s the remake since it looks brand spankin new.

Have you been to any pinball shows in PA?

Thanks

I had the choice of either. Decided the remake which was only a small percentage cheaper would give me less problems mechanically. Last pinball I got was a nightmare being over 30 years old. Could never find the parts

Hint: stay away from Gottlieb. They are the worst when locating parts

EDIT: that machine of course is a Ballys

Ballys for gaming. I got a Ballys Free Play in my living room. Oh, more irony

I didnt know about that resource. Thanks

Still it probably was the particular Gottlieb I had

It was a very rare Caveman. Pinball with two "cave" slots which when the ball landed in switched over to a video game. You tried to catch dinosaurs in a maze until they changed colors and ran after you (Pacman ripoff yes)

If you ran back into the maze tunnel (long as it was not the one you first entered) you awitched back to the pinball game.

Lots of rare parts for that one. It was standing where my attack from mars is now

Here is a pic from the net.

What is wrong with sharing information? If there were no information on the board, nobody would read it.

How many sites openly discuss card counting including how, when, where, and why. There are still good blackjack games out there. They have not all dried up and gone away.

"Wanna be" card counters are the casino's bread and butter. Blackjack is the most popular game out there because people think it can be beaten. These other AP opportunities are the same.

I play FPDW. The casino where I play has about 30 of them, quarters, 5 and 10 coin variation. There are SO many players there playing less than optimally, the machines are still making money. If I named this casino, would they close it down? You can find the name of it on the web very easily. That's how I found it. I even know the General Manager of that property, and he knows I play there.

These AP plays are not going to get completely burnt.

It's not like there is a clueless casino out there paying 2-1 on Blackjack.

Why would any Mod remove it? There's no rule against posting AP information. My casino just caught a table games cheater that got about $200,000 in 3 months. I can post about that call I want as long as I dont use names/identifying info.

No one showed me

Easy. A guy on another gambling website said he made $90 on one penny. The second top symbol came multiplied like 6 times by the wild symbol in a row or something like that and that's how he won the $90. This isn't far fetched at all. You can play CATS at one penny a line and if all CATS symbol show up, you get $100 on just one penny. So if you play your cards right, you can easily take that $100 and play the right games and end up leaving with $1,000. Hell, even putting $25 on number 3 on Roulette will net you $875 on just one spin. And you still have $75 left of the $100 win and you can easily make $125 profit on that $75 just by playing games that spin your way. :)

Wow. Assuming DO just mentioned two members who admit they are APs I can't fathom him being suspended for it. I mean people continually mention EB's AP Roulette, and I haven't seen a one of them suspended for it.

And as to EB's continually harping that DO's AP life may not last forever, the same can be said of any job, career. I am aware of one AP on here (name redacted) who if I was to give advice I'd say this.... "Keep doing exactly what you are doing. If things change, I know you will too."

It's very easy for a normal and educated person to become suddenly homeless. A lot of people are literally one missed paycheck from ending up on the streets. Sad but true.

I've been an adult since the 60's
and have never known a single
person that went from normal
citizen to homeless. It almost
always involves substance abuse,
credit abuse, or the person is
a blithering idiot.

This belief that people are just a
'paycheck away from homelessness'
is twaddle. I've heard and read
scores of stories from homeless
people over the years and it
always involves more than just money.

Claiming you were homeless now,
even if you were never homeless, is
a badge of honor to some people.
Gosh, look what they overcame!
They're almost heroes.. Not quite..

I've seen a few people descend into homelessness and by the time that happens, they've usually alienated everyone they knew. There is a difference between having to sleep in your car for a few days and true homelessness. Thankfully, the only times I've ever slept in my car was because I was too screwed up to drive and stayed wherever I'd parked. Even more thankfully, that hasn't happened in about thirty years or so.
I don't know anyone who became homeless because of a single missed paycheck, but I'm sure it happens. I just read a book about a senior in HS who was killed over a $6,000 gambling debt. Everyone knew about it, his brother even offered to make good on it, but the guy got killed to send a message to others not to jerk the killer around. When the kid turned up shot, everyone knew who did it but no one would talk.
The difference between fiction and reality is that fiction is supposed to make sense.

Exactly. Darkoz probably means he slept
on the subway once and considers that
being 'homeless'. Studies have shown
the vast majority of homeless people
in this country want to live that way,
they can't take the stress of a 9 to 5
life. Typical testimony:

"My daughter is homeless in Oakland, CA She chose this life. All of her homeless friends that she has introduced us to chose to be homeless. Because of her we have met a lot of homeless people, they have all made the same choice. We have offed her a bedroom in our home and she chooses to sleep on the streets.
She is capable of having a job, she chooses not to. She has gone to training, and passed, for many jobs, she quits them after only a few months in.
She tells us she likes being homeless the people are more real.
She has never had any psychological problems or been sexually abused. The homeless life is her choice.
It breaks my wife’s heart but she doesn’t care. It is a choice."

Bob you have to look at it from
the other point of view. Homeless
people poop on the streets and
leave needles everywhere, which
creates job security for the people
who have to wash down the sidewalks
and clean up the needles. If it wasn’t
for homeless people, no one would
have a job cleaning up after them.

You're being sardonic, but there is a
whole industry built around the
homeless that has no desire for it to
go away.

I assume DarkOZ doesn't have any substance abuse problems, I assume he is sane for the most part, I assume he is educated and he has all his arms and legs. I wonder how someone like that becomes homeless?

I have never been homeless myself. Had I ever been homeless, I wouldn't bring it up unless asked.



Then again there are a lot of things you wouldn’t bring up. But then again, you have common sense with your business dealings. And like work ethic, you can’t teach common sense.

You obviously are privileged and have no clue what it’s like to try and live in liberal San Francisco. Just struggling to get out and vote for Pelosi since 1987 with no other options makes one want to s@@t in the streets.

One is supposed to have 3 months of back up money saved up for an emergency. 1/2 of America does not do this. They live paycheck to paycheck. California is riddled with homeless people living in vans that are working jobs like bus driver.

I can think of two people that became homeless. I'm sure that I have met more in the restaurant industy that have. But they are too shy to talk about it.

I didn't want this to turn into a lets bash Darkoz.

I was curious at what point, he became an AP. I'm quite sure that story is not coming now

2 things.

I'm almost sure he told that story about himself several years ago, around 2014. You could check his posts via the archives. I could be wrong.

I do think, assuming he returns, and I think he will, he would tell it again.
