All,

  Yes, it was me.   I removed Rolex-Watch/Johno/Mahatma and whomever else he comes in as at least until the end of the month.

  The continued harrassment and negative attitude towards other players, continued disruption of threads and overall bad attitude just got to be too much to let ride for free so he has been put on the "No Fly List" so to speak.  He is not banned.  He has been put on the "Group W" bench as it were.  If you're old enough to know what that is, you'll understand.

   He will be welcome to return later as a fellow gambler, as long as the never ending hatred demonstrated over the last several months is left behind.

   In a message earlier today he has stated that he "is out of here" as this forum is of no use to him.   We shall see if he'll keep his word.

   So when another brand new member shows up later this afternoon and starts slamming the active posters again, we'll take it one day at a time.

   AD

   

It sounds more like something may have happened to the original "group" at some scattered locations or perhaps one single location and it kind of went away.

With the former members now drifting in space, so to speak, if they show up here, they can get back into contact.

One would think if it was a "tight" group, they would have had their emails to reconnect, or any of a hundred or so "social" links.

A private forum is cheap, like in free so I wouldn't be too concerned about secrecy and people hiding valuable information on the casinos.

At least not here.

3) why do you need to press the enter key so many times, before hitting the post button, creating a lot of empty space on all your posts?

I've often wondered that myself! 

AD

As a side note to all of this, I've found that everyone I ever dragged over to the fronton to watch (and wager) on Jai-Alai really liked it.  ALL of them said they preferred it to dogs or horses for wagering.

For me, the main reason I never got into dogs or horses was the time in between races.   You can go a half hour or so at the track while Jai-Alai is a strictly timed EIGHT MINUTES between games!!

You had better have your picks ready and at the window to make the wagers.   That's also one of the reasons we did a lot of "advance wagering" as I generally had my picks ready for the entire session at one time.

All that and you can sit down right on the screen/mesh and literally be in the action on the court.

All this talk has the wife saying we really need to make a run over and catch the matinee one of these days.  Dania Jai-Alai is closed for renovation and a new casino setup but the Miami Springs Jai-Alai fronton is open.   Hmmm.   Road trip!!

AD

Believe it or not, I actually have that book here in the house.  I bought it a LONG time ago.

When I lived in Orlando, I was wagering $1100 a week, every week, on Jai-Alai.  At the time you could "advance wager" up to two days in advance of the actual game so every other day the wife and I would drive up and make the advance wagers.

I was seriously into computers and this was a time when almost everyone used pencil and paper to track what they could.  I wrote several very nice routines on those old computers and had DAILY printouts of which games and players to wager on.

When I left the area, computers still hadn't caught up with Jai-Alai and I had some very interesting offers to purchase my years of data.  I eventually gave it away to a very deserving older individual that I had struck up a great relationship with on Jai-Alai and all things worldly.

Now, everyone and their brother has the data basically handed to them with each program for a dollar!!  What separated my data from the current data was the depth and percentages that I carried over time.

Yes, I did show a nice profit year after year in the pari-mutuel arena, but it was literally a daily grind.  I loved the game so much I actually learned to play it from the pros and played in the open public leagues that they had there.  Jai-Alai is a beautiful game but I can only see it now when I head over to Miami or Dania to visit friends.   They closed the Tampa fronton about two weeks after I moved to the west coast of Florida.

That book that you mentioned had some good data in it but it is now terribly dated.  It did give me some great programming ideas at the time though.

the air roulette machines in casinos should not be rigged but i think they are i have a method of play that never loses on paper but breaks down when i play for real can we sue the casinos

The short answer?  No.

But if you can post up some of your losing "live" play records I"m sure someone will step in with the appropriate corrections.

this guy is a scammer promoting that product

just like the "newer" guys who have come to the boards lately

And with the added effect that his one post "asks" a question about a specific program AND hasn't been back since.

Oh well, as they described Earth in the book "Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy". . . . .  Mostly Harmless.

Hans,
Another way is to put it on 'Dropbox' and then you can just paste the link.

cheers

Horus,

  I've also found that "Dropbox" is an excellent way to have very large files available for others as well as an automated "sync" backup for all the computers and iPads.

Friday is a casino day for me.  (Good clam chowder and fry bread, too!).

If you would like, I can post up my shoe (which will obviously be fabricated).  I can explain to anyone who will listen just how it was played and what the secret was/is.   Yes, I only play one shoe.

But then, that would be an exercise in futility for all involved.

None of the "herd" would believe it, no matter what the outcome.

AD

All (well, at least the three guys yelling the loudest),

  Here is your long awaited "POSTED SHOE".   What a thrill it is to post this up.  The anticipation, the planning, the stress, the juggling of multiple strategies and system plays to come up with the OBVIOUS solution for this particular shoe.

  So, I'll just skip all the happy casino junk and get to it.

  This is the shoe I walked up on.  Two people at the table already playing.  I'm in spot 1 (dealer's left for those who care).

  You need not be a rocket surgeon to look at the first 14 hands and see that this is a shoe crying out for Time Before Last wagering.   At least it was for me.   System 40 (chops) didn't look good and neither did any of the system plays requiring a lot of paperwork.  As I would have spent half of the remaining shoe just getting a score card "up to date".

  KEEP IT SIMPLE.

  Hand 15 starts the wagering with a simple 1,2,3 progression.  Why?  Because that's what I like.  Lose two of those and call it a day.

  Notice the single "two" at the start.   This is good.  We don't like twos running TB4L, right?

  Look at hands 30-33.  Here's our first chance to make the "3 wager.  It wins.  I continue with a single "test" wager.  It wins.  I continue on.

  If that wager at hand 33 loses, I'm done.  I take the +7 and call it a day.

  Uh, oh.  At hand 37 another "3" wager.  I don't like the way this is shaping up.  Too close but it wins and I continue on.  Once again, if it lost, I was done for the shoe/day.

  Damn.  Hand 45 and another "3" wager.  It hits for the third time, but I'm not liking having to make it.  I probably should have taken the +15 at hand 44 and blew the rest of it off but the logic of the moment said if it lost, I was still at +12 so go for it.

  Hand 49 should have been a stopper (+13) but I wanted to take a single flyer, one more time and it won so I stayed with it.  Obviously had that lost, I would have been done.

  Notice the final wager is a "2" and not a "3".  Never ever drop back under a +10 when you were so far ahead of it earlier.  If the 2 unit bet wins, I'll play on a bit more.  At it was, it lost so I was done.

  That's the play and the thought process.  No paperwork is involved.  The only thing you need be aware of is where you are with reference to your "goal" in the shoe.   I could have easily left that shoe much, much earlier but early on, it was running perfectly so why quit on a run?

  So, that's it.  Time Before Last was the big secret wagering plan.  Other system plays would work too, but this was the one I used this time.  Had that first "3" wager lost at hand 33 and I'm done.  I'll always take the safe win over a chance for a "big" win. 

   I don't know what else to add.

Well done ADulay our moderator, who's is well known for promoting various Ellis scams over the years.     

Rolex or whomever you are this month,'

  Please take it up with Victor if you would like me removed as a Moderator on this forum.

  Your constant whining about my gambling life is really getting tiresome.

  The constant corrections to your slanted postings involving my name are no longer worth the time to fix.

  I can only imagine what would get posted if I gave the results of the last two casino sessions.

ADuly back home in Ireland we have a saying it goes don't mash your potatoes in the same pot as you boil them. You should try to be more like St Vincent and humble yourself. That message wasn't directed to you nye did I call you a facist.
Now I know you may feel the world revolves around you but I'm sure it doesn't. Not everything is about you.
Now I know you like to make yourself seem important. Good luck with that.

Wow.  You really do read way more into a message than I had thought possible.

Please allow me to humble myself before thee.

I don't recall saying you called me a facist.  Please read the message.

Why would I have any need to make myself seem important?  It's a gambling forum.  Who would care?

You have engaged me here and in another forum.  I have tried to be helpful (and humble) but evidently that won't work.

Perhaps you can suggest a plan for me to become more acceptable in your eyes?  This would make me feel so much better in the morning.

Speaking of the morning, I'll be headed to Daytona Bike Week in the morning, so please take your time to consider what it is I need to do to make you happy.   If I can break away from the fun and games with people who don't sit at a computer all day, I'll try to read what you have come up with as a solution.

It's not censorship if you are the author of the thread.
Now however dictating what is censorship is in fact dictatorship.

Well, at least I wasn't called a fascist.

I've got that going for me.

AD

The apparent majority has spoken.

I stand corrected.

My ego is unbruised.

Delete as necessary.

AD

All,

  Really guys.   Is your ego so weak that the mere mention of a comment or remark that "you" don't like causes you to blow up and start deleting individual messages?

  Although when the topic came up in an Admin meeting, I voted against having a thread starter being able to delete messages, I was outvoted and the ability became a reality.

  So, let's give some thought about removing messages in your own thread.  Unless there is a true reason to remove a message (something not suitable for a civilized human to view/read) then leave it alone.  Thread continuity is important and although we've had several "high profile" members literally take their ball and go home, removing entire threads, we really don't need to behave like that.   In other forums where this has happened, it just looks silly and childish.   Uh, kind of like it did here!

  So, if you have a problem with a message, mark it for the Admin and let them take care of it.

  Or, if a few words really bother you on whatever it is you've written, you may be in the wrong sport of gambling.

  AD (insert some lame video or photo here attempting to impress the unwashed masses)

No, the text isn't moving.   It's the keyboard that I have to chase to finish this.

Arrrrrgh!
