    What about door number three, to wit: "Bullshit Walks?"

    I cannot see how you or anyone can win 50 sessions continuously or gamble in high end salons for eight months without losing their ass or, if they are AP's, being banned for AP.

    And you're no AP, are you?

    Photographic memory or not...

    What’s the mystery? If one is playing with an advantage the more one plays the more one should win.

    If you want an example of what can happen if you’re flat betting big with not only no advantage but even playing badly (splitting 4,4 against a dealer 2, among other niceties):



    Almost painful to watch, but entertaining.

    Of course people can win playing baccarat or blackjack without an advantage.

    But they won't win fifty hands in a row as you claimed, nor go on a nine or so month winning streak like you claimed.

    Dude, you're a legend in your own mind (but in nobody else's).

    I don't think you've actually read or followed closely my session reports then since what you posted above is full of imprecision and doesn't accurately reflect my results.

    Either, you're in a drug? haze of inability to follow what's been reported, or haven't read much of it, just responding to what you think happened.

    But the fact of the matter is:

    The two with the most outlandish claims write as if one author. They “fight” each other but it attracts double attention to each. and they point out to each other the 24/7 presence in a number of gambling ranting forums. when to gamble professionally when you spend 24/7/365 reading and writing long rants? 550 forum pages and counting. How about the daytime jobs?


    One of the guys posts also lots of photos as proofs to his claims. Chrome has now a useful feature Search with Google lens. I highlighted one image and Google lens gave lots of answers. One of our “super AP gambler” represented a room in LV Venetian Resort. A travel site made comparisons among various LV casinos&resorts. Our “super AP gambler” reposted the pic as-is. For credibility, he should have posted a selfie like from the shoulder down. Or place his wallet on the table in that room waiting for guests. Or a glass of whiskey. Other picks show generic stacks of casino chips. None is allowed to take chips out of the casino and take photos. Taking photos of chips is not allowed in the casino. Taking photos of food is not allowed in casino restaurants.


    However I feel for them grumpy old men. If they feel relieved that way, so be it. It’s a form of entertainment for others.

    This just proves that you make large casino donations by gambling hence they give you back 10% back in rooms and food.
    Casinos give some back to keep the suckers happy and coming back to make more donations
    Looks like you have donated a lot

    Tokens for kids play. Just one selfie would be convincing. no need to show the face-just from shoulders to waist. Even the face wont make any difference now. Or you think robbers will kill you again and again as they did to KJ? All casinos in Vegas know you already. How come they didnt 86ed you after all those 100,000 chips you grabbed from them? But, hey, if you feel better so be it. You'll never change. Get well

    This just in:

    The leader of a tribe of Egyptian desert nomads was overheard recently in a Cairo whorehouse bragging about how successful his banished step-son is doing in America.

    "While I am glad he is far away (what else can you do if a man molests a camel?) I am proud of him. He says he wins almost all the time in casinos but asks that we send him money every week. We do send him millions because we can afford it (slavery has always be profitable for our family) and he assures me he donates all the money to the local mosque where he devoutly prays to Allah."

    Uh...wanna buy a bridge?

    This is such important information, thanks for bringing us up to speed on these photo rules.

    If you take chips out of the casino, are all photos prohibited, or just photos of the chips?

    Can you take chips out of the casino as long as you don't take photos of those chips?

    If you are caught taking photos of chips in the casino, do they confiscate the chips, confiscate your camera or phone, or just backroom you and break your arms?

    Does this rule apply to all restaurants in the hotel, or just those that are actually in the casino?

    Can you take your plate outside the restaurant and photograph it, just as long as you are not in the restaurant or the casino?

    Will they let you back into the restaurant with your food, or do you have to drop it off at the hostess desk and place a new order at your table?

    How about if you take leftovers from the restaurant back to your room, can you photograph the food in your room?

    What about room service, is it OK to take photos of that food since you are technically not in a restaurant?

    Just one selfie would be convincing. no need to show the face-just from shoulders to waist. Hey, photoshopping allows you to edit photos in the public domain. I know, big effort since you work with soo many cloned images! and soo little time for a busy lawyer, professional AP gambler and a 24/7/365 keyboard warrior!!

    Donald Trump’s dad tried to help him financially years before he ran for prez. He entered a Trump casino in AC and bought chips worth over one million. Then Dad left the casino immediately with the chips, without playing. Lots of voices cried foul, FBI including I think. It is a felony to leave a casino with the chips. But there plenty of imitation casino chips for people to play with at home. I got lots, I play blackjack at home. the cards are also imitation.

    Ah Google lens! Follow the link in post #11005 (page 551 post-177084). The photo posted in his thread is the facebook background of a travel agency Visit Lake Tahoe. The photo was taken by a pro photographer from the top of a hotel.

    I heard more and more people curse google for their photo search invention. It exposes many proofs of something as lies.

    Btw- Donald Trump’s dad did return the chips to his son’s casino without money in exchange. Thats the aggravation. They said it was not Daddy in person, but a most trustworthy… lawyer. Get it? Lawyer?

    toolyp you are quite possibly the most stupid and clueless person to post in these forums.

    It is not illegal whatsoever to take pictures of casino chips, or food in casino restaurants. It is not illegal to remove your casino chips from a casino. Obviously you have never stepped foot in a casino or eaten in a casino restaurant your entire life.

    My guess is you are about 12 years old. If any older, you must be mentally deficient.

    And the story to which you allude has nothing to do with what you claim.

    https://www.latimes.com/archives/la-xpm-1991-01-22-fi-750-story.html

    Fred Trump was trying to save his son's casino from bankruptcy so he went in and bought up more than $3M in chips from his son's casino, to infuse capital into the casino to save it. "The $3M payment gave the younger Trump enough cash to make an $18.4-million payment due bondholders in the casino."

    The issue, at the end, was that this $3.5M amounted to an interest free loan to the casino, which violated gaming regulations.

    https://www.latimes.com/archives/la-xpm-1991-04-10-fi-293-story.html

    Had nothing to do with that removal of chips from a casino are disallowed. Again, obviously you have never been in a casino, played in a casino or eaten in a casino restaurant your entire life.
