WHY IS THIS FORUM DEAD?

Yeah yeah gizmo, we are very patient.  "Insert yawning smiley"

"Since you don`t wanna quit when you are down." >>> I dont agree, at least speaking for myself. I'll try and give an example.....Lets say over 'X' number of days playing a PARTICULAR method, I am up 10K. It starts to tank. I am not going to go -7K, thats a 17K swing. I might go down to +2K (and stop) or break even or even -2K is not terrible.  Ken

If you play, you know very well that things go up and down.  The question is always, why should I quit when im down ?  Which I at some point WILL be if I keep playing.  Once you get a little down, you promise yourself to quit next time you are up. After a while the "ups" are not bringing you back to break even because the house edge has nibbled the foundation in the up swings.

If that should be transferred to your play and you are up for 4 years, why don`t you quit now ? Since you don`t wanna quit when you are down.

Boy, are you in for a huge eye opening revelation. You believe that the trends of losing and winning exists yet you can't really believe that because all spins are independent events. What a clouded and obscured perspective. I can't wait for you to come to grips with the concept that you can control the outcome irregardless of the independent events. Oops, that's right, you just suggested that.

No one disputes that someone can win for a long time, I have a friend who was successfully flatbetting with a profit on the even chances for 2 years before he wasn`t able to win anymore. The problems only starts when the claims of pros and holy grails (without backup and proof) comes on the table.  If my friend had only been playing for 2 times a month instead of 6 times, he might still have been in profit. Instead he stopped being down 10K.

I don't know why some of you guys keep getting into the same arguments with people who are just out to antagonize.
Ignoring someone worthy of hearing is an insult to them, speaking to someone unworthy of hearing is an insult to yourself. The truly wise neither lose companions, nor waste their words.

[Kelly]

More realisticly is it that you go like
+2K then
-1K then
+3K then
-1 K then
-3K then
-1K then  (promising yourself you will get out at +-0) then
-5K

At some point you will get out with a loss.  If you play long enough. I don`t despite that you possibly is at + 3K now and find it boring that you can`t lose.  I have seen enough of the inside of the casinos and players there to know that the real world is quite different.

PS: Gizmo, we are still waiting.........and waiting..........and waiting
PS: John Gold, you are quite right, but someone asked why this board was dead. I just wanted to show a little knee jerk, as they say.

The real world is about to change.

The posters are random ? Roulette is random. Randomness hold a secret that the posters here do not know.
The only defence they have is to trash my post. Why not, they have nothing else to do. Go for it you it and try to be as vitriolic as possible. I love it.

Anybody else here notice that Gizmo is almost completely math ignorant? He never ever talks about math, he understands nothing about it. What this means is he has no way to prove anything, only his incessant BS talk about what he can do and will do. He's the schoolyard braggart always talking about his fun summer vacation but never bringing the pictures to prove it. Now he'll say "Just wait, you'll all be sorry!"

Whatever. It would be comical if it wasn't so boring.

CASINO-PLAYER, so you maintain that it's possible to get a real advantage using math and statistics?

Any apparent advantage is merely transient, that's the nature of randomness, sometimes it seems to follow a pattern, but the pattern has to exist in your mind before you notice it.

Have you ever read the book "Fooled By Randomness"?

[Mike]

I put it to anyone here who claims to win using math and statistics (assuming they aren't merely scammers), that they have been "Fooled By Randomness".

Of course it's unlikely the aforementioned will admit it, because more than almost anything else, people find it so important to be right, and hate to admit it when they are wrong. They see it as a weakness, but it's really a strength to admit you were wrong or just say "I don't know", and move on. Enough with the BS!

Who cut the cheese?

Here's the point. When Thorp wrote 'Beat the Dealer' and Brunson wrote his famous poker book, they were all about the math involved. Thats what every gambling system is based on, math. Gizmo has no idea what the math is for what he does (if he indeed does anything) so his book (which he'll never write) is a useless joke. To fully understand what you do, you have to understand the math inside and out and be able to explain why it works. Gizmo can do none of that. Case closed.

What`s the matter. Are all roulette forums   kicking the bucket left and right?

[Mr J]

I can only contribute so much. I'm exhausted.  Ken

[Nathan Detroit]
