Questions for the seriously skilled & expirenced winning players!!!

Also remember to listen to those who deal with these conditions everyday, not people like Yukon Jack or the "Old Coot from Virginia" who are apparently capable of claiming and/or supporting the ridiculous.

This site appears to have several of these droolers who are willing to mislead. With Yukon Jack (who wants to tell people it is you can make $150,000 staring with red chips before having a problem)and "Bootlegger" (who wants to tell people that there is no problem playing good games in downtown LV) the droolers only cause readers seeking accurate information problems and lost time and money. I guess we can now include Old Coot (another dreamer) to this group who put fantasy over the facts--the droolers.

Somewhere in the Chappy "Hall of Shame" is a list of people that he feels are dreamers and droolers. As a seeker of past post knowledge (as we all should be), I have read the advice of both he and the people he calls dreamers. The names on his list of droolers have changed the way I play this game with some of the best advice I�ve read. In his posts I find some of the most petty, childish, name calling and playground teasing ever posted, teaching me to watch from whom I learn from. �Chappy� thought of the day, �Give up, It�s all hopeless�

At this point �Chappy�, please add my name to the list of dreamers and droolers. DD', BigPlayer, MathProf, Igor, BootLegger, Umm, DeMango, Jim Dice, NegativeZero, Arnold Ziffel Buys a Laptop ,Old Coot, and even the Red Sox (or fleas as he calls them) the list just keeps on growing if you read his old posts (Can all these people really be that wrong?). From what I have read from you and your followers, the dreamers list is THE list to be on.

Oh yes, I am sorry �your Vegas� is dead to BlackJack players and dice setters. Seeing how this site is called BJ21 (As in BlackJack), maybe you should learn a new game on some other site that still pays and go else where. As for me, I will keep playing in �My Vegas�. Is it easy to make money in �My Vegas�? No, you have to do anything and everything - you have to do more than 'play all', you have to do more than blasting the big spread with no cover, and you have to grow with the times learning new skills not posted on the open boards!

Chappy, maybe I�ll see you on the tables and you�ll be easy to spot. You�ll be the guy spreading 1 � 50 in black using 40 year old tricks with no cover while bitching about missing the good old days. When 86�ed you�ll be yelling �MGM, what�s that, Miserable Game Makers! Hey, let go of me you failed quarter-back, half wit, rent-a-cop wanna be!� Ah Chappy, you do have a way with words. A wrong way...

Readers seek accurate info not the BS you want to excuse. You cannot defend the nonsense the droolers want to spread.

What kind of person would want to tell a newcomer trying to learn about 21 that you can make $150,000 in today's LV game starting at the red chip level before having a problem?

Why would someone want to tell those seeking accurate information that playing downtown is not problem, claiming you can find many decent games there?

These statements are pure BS. It's about time someone speaks up. Otherwise we have a nothing but a propaganda site. The funny part is: THE PEOPLE WHO MADE THESE COMMENTS DO NOT EVEN DEFEND THEM!

Instead we get you supporters of the fantasy spreaders wanting to stifle the speech of anyone who challenges their nonsense. Too bad if your obviously delicate sensibilities are upset. Today's LV conditions are much tougher than the old days and those seeking information should be able to get it.

I haven't lost in a long time now. Then again, I don't play for huge money. There are about four places I'm comfortable with, and I alternate depending on where I am in town, work schedule, errands, etc - going in four to give times a week with $150 buy-in, bet spread of $5-$25 ($25x2 if things are looking really good). If I win $100, I leave quietly. I decided this was the way to go after becoming frustrated with sitting at tables for the long grind and only pulling away $300 four or five times a month.

I stick the $100 winnings in an envelope and deposit it at the end of the month, sooner if I need the cash in there for some reason. No, it's not big money, and no, it's not enough to live on, but it's a $2k-ish a month supplement to my income, which is sure nice. I got kind of sniped at before for mentioning on these forums that I have fun with my play, but the reality is that I do. And since I do win consistently, I guess it's allowed.

There are probably _way_ more of us that fit what you are doing, as opposed to playing full-time. I do exactly the same thing. I enjoy playing, I actually enjoy practicing using CVBJ at home. I'm not out to make a fortune, as opposed to making some money and having fun while doing so.
