I took the plunge and spent five grand on BJCobbson's A & F seminar and here is my brief report. I'm dealing with the (only two) negatives first:
He threw in a Grand Canyon chopper ride, BUT, when the 'pilot' turned up at 09:20 for my 09:00 ride, with a 4-day growth, unsteady on his feet and reeking of last night's bourbon bonanza, wearing pink sunglasses and a T-shirt with 'Roadhead cures roadrage' emblazoned on the front, I was not impressed. Then, the chopper looked like 1969 Vietnam-war vintage and even the mechanic looked like a tired John Rambo. Fortunately for me, Rambo couldn't start the thing due to a flat battery or something, so I passed on the chopper ride.
We then headed for the Nye Valley Grand Brothel Tour, which turned out just great except for this: Mr Cobbson mentioned 'hands on' in his brochure but his hands were not the only things he wanted involved.
I am sure he took more than his share of viagra because on two occasions, he 'mistook' me for one of the two buxom fun ladies included in my package. I got over it, eventually. Here I should say he has the loudest, most celebrative warcry I've ever heard...all while wearing his ridiculous cowboy hat: "RIDE EM COWBOY, YEEHAAAAAA!"
Viagra OD would explain some bizarre behavior, but not all. Maybe other substances were abused, I cannot say for certain.
Later that night, I had a 7-hour crash course in BJ card counting 'secrets' but by then my head was just mashed with EV, ROR, Kelly Wong In or Kelly Wong Out, Dom's 18 Industrious's, True Counts, Back Counts, Backliners, Frontliners, Hole-Card Peek, Frontloaders, Ace-tracking, Shuffle-tracking and CT waitress-tracking. I was in no mood for actual play, but there we were, in one of those joints LVBear warned us about, dealers could hardly deal and could barely speak English either. When we both hit a streak and went past a magic figure, UP, (apparently $200) on our $5 min table, a big fat guy in a suit appeared out of nowhere, flanked by two psycho goons and we were told to "Get goin you two, NOW!"
You get the gist, the rest was fun, and we won. Space does not permit at this stage, but I could tell you how we won, maybe later, it anyone wants. And what about his table-selection routine! Aw, man... NB
