Quote: FleaStiffI would tend to doubt that figure. If it IS true, then do not play ANY game in that manner. A 64 per cent risk of ruin is an absurd bet to take and its better to get your entertainment in just about any other manner than to endure a 64 percent risk of ruin. Its just foolish, so somewhere your math must be wrong because no sensible gambler would do it and very few utterly drunk gamblers would do it either.
I'm not saying it isn't foolish; I just pulled those numbers out of the air just to make an example... When I went to the Easy Vegas site and then to "expected loss," and plugged in those same numbers, playing $100 a hand Baccarat for 70 hands an hour for 50 hours gives an expected loss of $4,340. If I had a $5,000 bankroll I would nearly be wiped out. So, that other website showing a 64% chance of ruin over 50 hours of play at $100 a hand with a $5,000 bankroll doesn't sound too far off.
I guess? I think I'm just as bad at math as you are.
It is what it is (assuming the figure is accurate). 64% of the time he'll lose the entire $5k before completing the 350 hands. 36% of the time he'll complete the 350 hands before busting the entire $5k. From a simply gambling perspective and not an AP perspective, it isn't particularly good or bad. If he wants to do that, he can. If he doesn't want to, then he doesn't need to do it.
It is called the loan star tic. If you get bitten by it, you become allergic to red meat. I swear to God if I get that I will be jumping off the stratosphere.

Here's a Wikipedia article about that parasite. I thought the news story was phony until I googled it.

I don't think Zillow will ever be able to get much closer than a 5% error rate. Their calculations don't factor the interior condition of the house. Home remodels usually add at least 5% to the sales price of a house.

There you go thinking again. I actually got an idea from your saying this, but maybe they're already factoring it in. Not going to say anything further publicly, but I'd discuss it with math guy(s) willing to take it on.

She's a SC mom who got tired of being one, strapped her kids in the back seat, and put her car into a lake, drowning them. She blamed a black guy in a ski cap for hijacking the car, even gave a description for a widely disseminated sketch, but eventually confessed.
She didn't get tired of being a mother. She got tired of being a poverty stricken mother and she met a local rich lothario who told her that he wanted her but not her baggage. So she got rid of the baggage as the only hope out of her constant strife and poverty.Quote: beachbumbabsShe's a SC mom who got tired of being one, strapped her kids in the back seat, and put her car into a lake, drowning them.
The real criminal in this case was the local rich playboy who offered her hope.
The fact that she concocted a black attacker is perhaps sensible, perhaps not.
Of course the net result of all this was that in truth, Local Playboy didn't want her baggage or really want her for long anyway. There was no escape from poverty, only the illusion of it. Someone held out 'hope' to her, its no different than the 'hope' of drug use or the 'hope' of a liquor store job. Some people just get tired of struggling against a sea of woes and are ready to have tide chang by any means, no matter how illogical or ephemeral they are.
As to the comment... I admire the restraint of the various Green Inkers.
Quote: RSI haven't done the math and I likely won't, but 64% ROR on $5k BR for 350 hands at $100 a hand sounds reasonable to me. The figure doesn't strike me as being "totally off" or anything like that.
Can someone go to the Vegas Click table that I mentioned and explain to me just what that '42' means in the BJ for 4 hours column. Should 5k be bet at 50 dollars instead of 100?
The table shows a 90 percent chance of avoiding ruin, not a 64 percent chance of experiencing ruin.

It means you need 42 betting units to sustain four hours of play with a 10% risk of ruin. So, if you have a $5,000 bankroll, you can bet $119 per hand (5000 divided by 42 units) for that 10% risk of ruin.

Zillow estimates my house for like $125k. We just had it recently appraised for $88k. So who the hell knows what my house is worth.
By the way, I just saw a condo listed for $25,000 in Vegas.... on Bonanza ave.
Quote: RogerKintThe only person who knows what your house is worth is the person who is buying it, or the bank who is loaning the buyer the money to buy it/refi. Sometimes the appraiser will turn the appraisal into the bank and the bank will disagree with the appraised value (usually lower) for various reasons. Zillow is almost always way off. Tax assessors can be way off as well. Many assessors will lower your property taxes if you have a recent appraisal with a lower value than their assessed value.
By the way, I just saw a condo listed for $25,000 in Vegas.... on Bonanza ave.
the whole thing is weird. We bought our house 3 years ago. It was on the market for 6 months at 129k which is basically what that website said it was worth and what the tax assessment said it was worth. They lowered the price 4 times and we put in an offer at 86k. They finally accepted our offer and when we had it appraised for the load and it came back at 86500.
I know someone in Phoenix who bought three houses, each one of them below appraised value. Later someone sued to when the market tanked to prevent appraisers from reflecting the current drop in prices.
25K condo? Interesting. If my contemplated late June trip to visit the Seminoles with 20.00 proves spectacularly successful, I'll take it.
Though it will probably be 25k plus two zillion in back HOA fees and an immediate assessment of HOA reserve fund replenishment.
Actually, only the public ever really believed her the cops never quite fell for this lone black guy out in the middle of nowhere just somehow waiting for an opportunity to arise.Quote: RSSounds like she eventually did the right thing. Good for her.
Then she f***ed it up at the end by confessing.

The 64% RoR I mentioned earlier is over 40 hours of play with a $5000 bankroll betting $25 a hand, according to that other website. The 10% RoR is only over four hours of play, according to EasyVegas, starting with 42 betting units. It's two totally different sets of numbers you're conflating here.

Quote: FleaStiffAppraisal?? In Los Angeles an owner greeted the appraiser with a bottle around which was tied three one hundred dolllar bills. The appraiser asked 'how much'. The appraisal came in at that.
It's a lot like the $20 sandwich trick. The requested value was going to be doable anyway. Back in the good (or bad) old days (pre Dodd Frank era) a smart appraiser wouldn't accept a job if the desired appraised value wouldn't pass the scrutiny of the underwriter. Taking the fee for a job knowing the deal wouldn't go through was short-sighted and bad for business. Things are different now.

If I was a terrorist, I'd be in Las Vegas September 12th. Sure we engaged them in Iraq and Afghanistan, where the possibility of success was zero. I think there is something fishy going on with terrorism. Possibly like, but not the only explanation, it was all staged like wwf, and the fans made it real by being lone wolves.

Quote: GWAERS, chipotle has had a data breech. I think it is just in my area and not nation wide. Good thing I go to Qdoba instead
i used to eat at qdoba but they limited what you could put on their tacos. some of the items were just for burritos. chipotle doesn't limit it. anything for burritos can also go on tacos.
Quote: onenickelmiracleIf I was a terrorist, I'd be in Las Vegas September 12th. Sure we engaged them in Iraq and Afghanistan, where the possibility of success was zero. I think there is something fishy going on with terrorism. Possibly like, but not the only explanation, it was all staged like wwf, and the fans made it real by being lone wolves.

This is why people think 9/11 was staged. I don't think so, but I do think it was ruthlessly exploited by Bush, Cheney, Clintons, etc. It was one of the best things ever to happen to them.
These people aren't dumb. Of course they know that bombing the crap out of Iraq, Libya, etc will create more terrorism. You'd have to be a drooling idiot to not realize that.
More terrorism means they can sell more weapons, cut back on our rights, expand the police state and have an excuse to attack more countries that have oil. Oh wow, they would sure hate to have to do that!
1720 West Bonanza is the so-called "Desert Gardens Apartments" or, hilariously, sometimes "Condominiums." There are no gardens. Haven't been for at least several decades. I think the only people who've ever bought any of them as supposed 'condos' instead of short-term no-questions-asked el-cheapo flophouse rentals are some clueless absentee Californians and the like acting very impulsively from afar. If you offer some of them a few grand to get out of their foolishness they'd likely grab it, and feel lucky they found a sucker. I've been there several times, a couple of them to help someone escape from her terrible mistake of renting a place, thinking she could sleep there and suchlike. The place is pretty well known. It is in the news a lot, besides that is informally known for a lot more other goings-on that would be a lot more newsworthy if they went on even a fraction as much somewhere else in a neighborhood that wasn't so much subject to a destructive combination of hostile official neglect on one hand plus profoundly stupid political posturing by others, and in the neighborhood among people who actually live there every day this specific site is known as a definite clubhouse of sorts. Not in a good way. In a way that a lot of folks who live in that neighborhood and know every stick of it tell their kids to never, ever, go back there or else (you can't even see it from the street or sidewalk on Bonanza).

Quote:An emergency plan at a Bonanza Road day care calls for quick evacuation to a “safe spot” — a zone in the single-story building where owner Frances Thomas can huddle with her young flock.
But this is Las Vegas. Thomas isn’t overly worried about natural disasters. It’s what lies outside the brightly colored classroom that bothers her: fights, gang activity, people carrying guns.
The day care’s playground borders Desert Gardens, a complex of individually owned condominiums at 1720 W. Bonanza Road that residents and police alike say is riddled with problems.
“I have a lot of fear when I leave my building and when I walk into the building,” said Thomas, owner of Little Annie’s Day Care...<SNIP>....

With the lack of security you see as you enter Vegas casinos, you can see why they are easy targets.
It was a State of Israel, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, POTUS conspiracy. Just look at the private army firms that got so rich: they are all owned by either the Bush Family or Saudi Arabia. That is the only reason US Attorneys had earlier been told to indict people who seek to employ Soldiers of Fortune, Bush wanted to eliminate the competition.Quote: RigondeauxThis is why people think 9/11 was staged.

I don't know about that. As in, I genuinely don't know about it. If you mean there was a a conspiracy to exploit 9/11, I'm much more open to that, than the idea that the attack was orchestrated by a conspiracy.
It's true that part of the recent agenda is to establish and enrich private military groups. Not sure that's even debatable, though I think almost any sane person, who valued liberal democracy, would oppose it.
I mean, what are some of the good things about our taxes funding giant, transnational, mercenary organizations with no loyalty or accountability to us, rather than the American military? Yet almost 100% of our politicians think it's wonderful. (But we'll vote for them anyway because of our views who uses which bathrooms).
However, I do know that Saudi Arabia's leaders are the world's leading proponents and promoters of Wahhabism, the fundamentalist strain of Islam that inspires most terrorists.
And I know that we throw U.S. tax dollars at them anyway, and that we just sold 100 billion in weapons to them, which they will use to blow up hospitals in Yemen.
