You know, it is sad, especially for someone that claims to be a scholar, a university graduate with honors no less!  The list of self-proclaimed achievements, accomplishments and published books are pretty extensive.  Yet, I see no verifiable letters or certificates of achievement, no 3rd party certifications-audits or endorsements that are present.  I see no tangible unbiased endorsement(s) of any kind whatsoever.

However, what I do see is terrible reviews on the books published, a bio and life achievements that border fictional and absolute wishes.  I also see horrible writing for someone that publishes on a worldwide website he graduated with honors and a background in writing.  I also witness the degradation and the humiliation to the general public of a website that he came into with the sole intention of selling his books.

There are many instances.  Here are a couple that stick with me and upset many on Bet-Selection.Net.

1)    "I think you're questioning my integrity. But rather than do that it should not be me personally that you ought to question but my work for it speaks for itself.

But I do understand that many people are winning using it. Those who are not either do not understand it or have not applied it properly or are such type gamblers that lose using other methods but blame mine, since they may have started off using mine but then switched back to their old ways."


2)    "What a bunch of garbage. It may work sometimes but over all it doesn't work in the long run. The profit targets make it not worth it, are to low."

And his answer.  Clearly loves to degrade and chastise his customers whom put money in his pocket.  Turns the tables in attempts to boast his stance and his discovered holy-grail that is at best, 'a chance under ideal circumstances and events that might happen in shoe formations, maybe'.  Blames the loss on the player's greed and being a bad loser.  Seriously!  This is insulting to Bet-Selection.Net as a good website without foolish theories being sold to its members in complete disguise of being from a mathematician, scientist and world explorer that puts himself on the same level as a Harvard or Tufts University lifelong highly decorated with academic honors and awards professor.

Answer)   "what do you want, the game is 50/50 you can't expect to go ahead by many units always in such a game. If you have a better way than playing then stick to that way. Other people are winning clearly you are not because you are doing something wrong. Maybe you are too greedy who knows. You might be one of those bad gambler types we read in the book. A bad loser. You must have not followed system and reverted to playing like you normally do. Maybe you have no self control, it seems this way anyway with the type of review you leave and the 1 star. Some people just can't be helped, not at all. There is no help whatsoever."

"I am known as Sputnik at gambling forum boards and test the baccarat method using 50/50 results.
First 50 sessions end up with +24 units. The second 50 session end up -2 units. The third 40 session end up -1 units.
So +21 units playing 140 sessions. That is my verdict."

And his answer.  He simply attempts to turn the tables and accuse the reader, his customer of 'voiding' anything and everything he wrote.  Ridiculous, childish and borders on stupidity.  Seriously, 100%.

Answer)  "The strategy was not meant to be used on shoe after shoe after she non stop for 140 shoes! This clearly states this in the book!! Therefore you would not be winning because you are going against the advise in the book. The strategy states that you gain 3+ per DAY and not play on shoe after shoe. Therefore your testing of the strategy is void in this respect."

As far as writing and academic and personal commitment to the fiction world:

"1.0 out of 5 starsUnpolished, unplotted, unbelievable: The Godfifa
ByBarron van Deusenon March 4, 2017
Format: Kindle Edition|Verified Purchase
The Godfifa promises to be a story of crime, passion, drama, and corruption in the upper echelons of organized soccer. It is exactly none of those, up to and including a story.

In the first sentence there's a heavy use of passive voice, a time jump, unnecessary description of luxury items to show that the President of FIFA is loaded, and no hook whatsoever. The rest of the book is exactly the same thing but with run-on sentences and metaphors that come off like the early signs of dementia. The author opts to ignore the writing principle of 'show, don't tell', and just about every other writing principle along with it. Unfortunately, this book is terrible at showing and telling; this ends up in dialogue like "Wow, you are indeed an important man, a man in high demand." The word "Godfifa" appears 59 times in the book, another awful word-stick we're beaten over the head with until concussed. We can almost hear the author chuckling at his clever wordplay.

The book is written in 3rd person omniscient through viewpoints that change from paragraph to paragraph and sometimes sentence to sentence. Run-on and misspellings are aplenty here, and there are pages of exposition that go nowhere and add nothing. Halfway through, we're treated to a description and background of a character called the Wizard, who never appears in the story at all. Plot threads are left dangling, especially impressive because there is no plot. There is no conflict. Instead, there is a slew of confusing analogies, sexist diatribes, and a racial slur that comes out of nowhere.

The Godfifa has an editor credited. This amazes me. There are sequels planned. This amazes me more.

With rough-draft quality writing and a premise that never gets touched on, The Godfifa is a let-down for anyone looking for a coherent read. That aside, the delightfully awful analogies and the scene with the pope absolutely make it worth the 99 cents I paid. Three stars for writing a Pope that swears, one star for the rest.

And one of the comments, apparently coming from the author through a fictitious party, is the following filled with humiliation and challenging another one of his few customers with a harsh comeback.  Personally, I have never read such outright come backs and humiliating comments to actual reader's reviews of their literary works.

"The Author did write it was his first novel so I'd expect a lot of mistakes since few first novels are absolute masterpieces. You're entitled to your review of course as are other readers. I just think your review is fairly harsh all considering. Maybe you should try writing a crime novel. It would probably end up as a masterpiece of literature as you believe your review is".

Back to baccarat and the author.  You know, he said it himself in almost my exact words.  Can't always win, cannot use his holy-grail secret system every shoe, if you win a few units you have to stop.  If you lose a few units you also have to stop so you naturally won't lose more!!!  WTF!  What kind of system is it?  It is no system, a draw of the luck and hopefully you will prevail.  All kinds of disclosures and warnings to give himself a backup and credibility with saying, "I told you so" and that is why you lost.  Then if you win, it is "Hey---welcome aboard, spread the word, pat on the back, join the crowd and we will hurt the almighty casinos".  LOL, I am laughing so hard, snot is coming up of my nose without my ability to control it!

I can name a half dozen great baccarat wagers to win a few units most of the time and as well, sometimes those will not work.  Same thing, no difference, none.  As far as all the shoes I posted and others have and even those of the Wizard-of-Odds, anything and everything can happen at the baccarat table.  IMO, there can be no fake shoes, unless you are talking about 75 bankers followed by 2 players and 3 ties or something ridiculous.  The shoes that do not fit his system are all fake.  The shoes that allow his system to prevail, are real.

But what totally floors me is the authors outright humiliation and degradation to his customers on the website here as well as on Amazon.Com's reviews with his 'publications'.  IMO, that is the lowest and most disrespectful 'come back' by the seller against a buyer.  A total act of bad karma coupled with zero respect for the entire public.

Well, I have news for you.  Keep daydreaming about those absolutely pretty college girls with their gorgeous and flawless bodies while your erection grows and grows with great anticipation about what your mind wants you to do with them.  You will get a larger payday than if you follow any mechanical scheduled system with a preconceived bet placement method at baccarat without knowing and applying all the other vital things that will allow yourself to win, hold your win and also, the knowledge and the ability to stop when it is not going to happen.

Just what I was thinking. The customer isn't happy with the book therefore the customer is "out to damage me" or "the customer is a compulsive loser" or "the customer is an a**hole".

LOL, what happened to customer service and "the customer is always right"?

You know, i actually looked back on other things in my life regarding customer Service and in general purchasing things and I am not happy with them for whatever reason, etc.  Well, I guess a used car from a private party is pretty much, buyer beware, but the everyday things, groceries, books, cosmetics, food, etc. 

Wal Mart.  Never had slack or a mean customer service person no matter what.  If it is broken--they never ask or insult you, like, "Hey you sure you know what you are doing'  Or anything of the like.  Even a t-shirt on clearance for the kid.  Go back 3 weeks later, no receipt--only the tag on the shirt.  Tell them, the kids does not like it.  Not a problem, never.

Grocery store.  Bought some hamburger the other week.  Made them, felt mushy like watery. IDK?  Circled the item on the receipt and went back to the market the following week.  Told the manager.  He asked, you want your money back or a credit for another 2 pounds??  Never a smart rear-end question back to me with insults or degradation. 

Those are about the only things I can remember in recent history complaining about.  Besides a broken table I bought from some store like IKEA that you have to put together.  They didn't say anything except sorry, here is another one.  Not, "Well maybe you broke it cause you don't know how to put it together and you failed to read the instructions", etc. etc.

Congratulations Stephen Tabone!  Has a great review on his new book!!!! 

Oh wait a second!!!  Hold the horses!  Let's revert a bit back in my past to the tad bit of law enforcement experience I once had.

Let's ask who is the review coming from?  Is it perhaps a 'set-up' clone of a customer?  Is it perhaps the author doing a certified purchase of his own book and writing the review with a bit of technical and sale push from the supposedly 'real customer'?  Read the two reviews and tell me honestly, how they sound and tell me that they do not push the heck out of his books with great technical strive stated and wrote in the review!  These two reviews from a brand new, never reviewed a book before and all of a sudden two books from honest, church going, praise the lord, win everyday, never lose but if you do you mis-read the system and my advice and you got greedy playing 140 shoes straight, etc., etc., and so on Stephen. 

The review is from Zeke.  He also bought Stephen's other baccarat book.  And if you go onto the Amazon website, Mr,. (of course real and honest) Zeke, has NO OTHER reviews posted!  He in fact did not exist until he purchased Stephens book an extremely short time ago and now he is a Stephen follower and of course take s the time and writes great reviews.

I have seen on Amazon for years and have bought hundreds of books, I have read hundreds and hundreds of reviews.  I do believe all reviews had other reviews posted by the reviewers.  Of course you have to start your reading and review career somewhere, so let's start with Stephen's baccarat books!  Right on.  I don't know about you guys, but it is not my first rodeo! 

I love the motivation, the desperation, the wherewithal and most of all---the admitted urge to help all gamblers of aggressive baccarat system author that degrades and humiliates almost an entire message board in his pursuits to make a buck.  Damn, a great review once again by the suddenly new reviewer, Zeke.

•   Acted either negligently or with actual malice;  No malice and without negligence, from my believed truth and fact gathering research and communication with Amazon as well.  All, everything in my opinion. 

You know, I am not scared of attorneys, like someone will actually pay a 'legal team' from overseas to sue me for libal and slander when everything I said was "In My Opinion" and i have the absolute perfect right to do so.  Please, go swing from a tree and yell that a monkey raped you or something.  If you are truly a serious author and a real gambler, you don't sue people for speaking their mind, the same as I or anyone else doesn't sue you for writing what we think is garbage, misleading truths, etc., etc. 

Pay your money, sue me, it won't go anywhere.  I did nothing wrong and did no harm to you.  If anything, I actually got you more business and more publicity because now you have the drama twist on it!!!!  Talk about monies owed, I acted as your PR personnel and you did not even pay me!!!!  Seriously!!!

If i am not scared of the state police, prosecuting attorneys, jail, being handcuffed, why in the world would i be scared or intimidated by the threat of someone hiring a complete 'legal team' for at least a realistic $25,000.00 or probably more like a $50,000.00 retainer to start with!  If you really only knew about first amendment and right to speech and anything else I said 'In my opinion' you would apologize.  Good lord, I even attempted to calm the members when they wanted to kick you off.  I pleaded with the members here to give you a fair shot and view you as an infomercial, whcih you are a commercial venture and a paid sponsor.  You have no audited or certified or third party endorsements that are real and can be verified, etc.  Please!

Again, you are attempting to intimate me on a board I have put alot of work into and now you are the end all to the entire gambling industry and attempting to sell your super secret newly discovered gambling system.  I merely stated and wrote "In my opinion" and how I feel.  Please take a rest and look up the word, "Respect" and "Co-existence". 

In my opinion and my expert experience, you hawk and attempt to sell mis-truths, fallacies and dreams to innocent people that will lose their savings and family's money because of your misunderstandings of the game.  How I feel about the reviews on Amazon is my opinion and I have a right to those opinions.  Have your legal team PM or email me and I will turn myself in and they can put me in jail.  Do I get a chance to go to the supermarket so I literally stock up the shelf in the kitchen and supply my 3 little kids with enough food until I get out of jail???  PLEASE! 

And by the way, if i really wanted to hurt you, why couldn't one set up 20 or 30 accounts and have numerous people in his family purchase your book and then write horrible reviews.  Remember every review that is bad will stop hundreds or thousands of potential customers.  And for your information, I did purchase your book and I have recommended many of my buddies, friends and family members to also do it.  Do you really think what you wrote today is the way a real successful author that has a real system would do things??  Now, I want the book and I want to know everything in it.  I will then also have the exclusive and certified right to write a review, correct???  Or that review will not count?  Let's see, what is my Amazon name going to be, John H, Jimbo Q, Public an Large, Susie Y, maybe Barb the Train??   You have to be the most disgusting and horrible person I have every come across on the internet with the gambling craze on these boards, and that is in my opinion and I am allowed to say those things. You really want this???  Do you really want it, because I will 100% grant your drama wishes.

You are actually threatening someone on a message board not to speak his mind and post things he finds out?  You are actually scared of the truth?  You actually want to scare people out of questions and concerns about something you had the right to perform authorship on and any other person has the right to comment, question, challenge and ask or draw any kind of picture of any type with possible scenarios as to reviews, comments, articles or anything else relating to that work???  Seriously.  FYI, you made me buy your publication and I have recommended many other do the same thing.  Congratulations you win!  You conned me out of my money!  Am I allowed to write those certified reviews in a bit?  Or am i going to get sued by a lawyer with the last name ending in 'stein' or 'berg'?
