Mike and all others
You will never see all those so called hand written pages
that fill upteen boxes with 1704 special plays, stained with tequilla ($200 per bottle). You will be led to believe you will but it will never happen. Lets just play poker and dicuss it ,Cause I got them all in my head.
How much money did you bring ?
6k. Ok lets start at dollars. Lets use my slot card, great. You can get one later cause they are not important.
3 hours later you are 6k lighter and Mr Special plays kisses you good night and says I got to go cause you don't have what it takes to do this.

I just noticed something with the progression. 
 
Take that second session.  I played 5 rounds or mini-sessions ending at the $10 level.  In total, that was 423 hands (less than an hour at the rate I actually play).  The coin-in on that total session was $5,735.  I don't play at quite double that rate but I'm not too far off.  That comes out to around $10,000 an hour.  That's got to be worth something to most casino hosts

The guy goes to work in the afternoon and he's a local vp addict who's already fat at a young age. $572 is a LOT to him too.

Do I really need to suspend you for your continual comments like this? You have seen the warnings. How many days would you like off? Throw out a number.
 
I know you were goaded into it but you're the self-proclaimed professional here. I'll ask the same of anyone else who wants to keep this up.

OK.
 
The comment was made in order to let the fellow know I know who he is. The problem with people I teach is most of them come from the optimal-play side where they've already been turned into vp-addicts by reading all the gurus who've told them how to go at it for years. I've met with maybe 300 people over the years and chat with thousands more, and my professional opinion is most of them are too far gone and/or have too little money to be gambling with. I do help a select few but only those with extreme discipline and determination, a good mathematical mind with a proper bankroll. How many people here have those traits? Few would. So most people I teach have already been corrupted beyond hope but I try anyway.
 
I'll take a 3-day suspension starting right now because we're immediately off to Santa Fe until Monday morning.
 
Cheers

Understood. I hope you are right. I warned him about remarking about your figure and you laughed, so you must have known it would not go over well to return the favor.

Rob Argentino,
If you think I am fat then you are just trying to con these folks into thinking you are something you are not. I guess my butt is chubby when what you are seeing is that FAT bankroll bulging in my back pocket. I do carry a little extra weight in a certain spot but it is not my butt, if you know what I mean.
Sante Fe has a couple nice Injun casino, but you already new that.
And for all those that know me as Rob says he does. And he does but not who he thinks. I am African-American 5'10" 175lb and 16" biceps. I lift wieghts and have 9 fingers(shop accident) and I shave my head because there is not much hair left. I have served this country and I am 60 years old and have always been self employed. I am an Ivy School Grad. I own oil wells, a refinery, and can fly my own Gulfstream, but I now use a company pilot for safety reasons.(eye exam)
I recognize a con man when I see him due to there are plenty of them in the oil biz. They are cracker jack sales people and prey on peoples hope of getting a huge return for little risk or work. It don't happen that way folks if it did making millions would be a piece of cake and Special Play Con Guys would be on the street or at Wendy's cooking fries.
The oil biz is expensive and risky and a lot of folks hit it big but get overwhelmed with success and get greedy and are flat broke again in 3-5 years. Imagine going from having $10-25 million to selling used cars to feed your family. That is what Special Plays and Stupid Moves will do for you.
So Rob if you ride your honda to Santa Fe(They have several addiction treatment centers there)the road will be crowded with families so no beverages on the road but helments are optional.
P.S. I was at the Rio this week playing ddb and hit everything on the pay table from royal, st flush etc all the way down in 4 hours.All on the same machine.
I had no special plays so I guess I just found one in a HOT cycle. Must go now the chittlings is done and the cornbread is bout ready. Mmmmm good. Everything is good in Texas even the malt liqor.
