    I can't believe we're wasting time on this crap. No i'm not down with turning kids into trannies and i'm not down with socialism for billionaires and corporations.


    Thank goodness RFK Jr is running. If you're not down with RFK Jr you need to sit this next election out. Go take a vacation, spend time w the family.

    Trump Derrangement Syndrome is a mental disorder. Get counseling. Dylan wants you to kiss him.
    So is Crimm and Druff derangement syndrome. I miss those A+ memes. Who would have thought a centrist like you, would have a famous meme like staunch righties Trump and Druff

    Split, you really need to find some other fake Christian that is also unattractive and isolated.

    Your continued downward spiral has progressed from amusing to cringeworthy to, I’m sure, your family consulting attorneys about involuntary psych hold legalities.

    Anyone sane could see the idealogical distinction between this new guy and me. Unfortunately your depression and joining multiple cults simultaneously has taken you from just garden variety stupid to crazy cat lady territory.

    This new poster isn’t me. Since you’re the type to think Jesus has manifested himself on your burnt toast, I thought I’d quiet your obsession.

    Unlike Ok2s obsession with many of the men here which seems textbook anger at his latent homosexuality, I know you’re straight and simply mentally unbalanced, so I thought I’d throw you a lifeline.

    I don't blame Split for suspecting that Mission146 is your dupe. He suddenly showed up here and you both have extreme cases of TDS.

    But in full disclosure, Mission is not a dupe. I've known him for over ten years. He was a moderator at the Wizard of Vegas forum for several years. He has been a gambling writer for Latest Casino Bonuses for several years. LCB is the company that bought the Wizard of Odds website from Michael Shackleford. Mission's articles related to gambling are very good. He's very thorough. And he is very good at gambling math. He also works advantage slots like I do. But don't tell him I told you any of this. He's a Never Trumper asshole. I hate Never Trumpers.

    You can find a lot of Mission's articles here.

    Mickey, I came across this a couple of days ago. Is this particular method one of your hustles?

    "Advantage of the gameplay of certain slot machines which pay out predictably at a certain point.

    There's hundreds of games that you can do this with, and I can't explain them all, but I can explain how to figure out the jackpot threshold method.

    When you have a must-hit-by jackpot that increases in value per spin, you can calculate exactly which value is the threshold for advantageous play. Say for instance that it must hit by 5,000 dollars, and the current value is 4,999.99 dollars. You literally can't lose. The only possible outcome is that you get paid 5,000 dollars minus the cost of your spin. But since you'll never find that, you have to know what the minimum threshold is for an advantage. Here's how to do that

    First step is to figure out what coin-in amount moves the jackpot up by one cent. To do that you can play the game at each bet level and watch what happens. If you spin at one dollar, and nothing happens, then try two dollars, and it goes up one, then you know it's at least two dollars to move it. Spin it again, and if it doesn't move, then it's actually three dollars per penny. Spin it once at three dollars and it doesn't move, then you will know somebody before you fed it two dollars, and that the actual amount to increase it is five dollars. Spin it at five dollars a few times, and it increases each time, you know that's the coin-in per penny.

    Next you need to know the RTP (return to player). This is the percentage of every dollar that the machine pays out. If it is 95%, then that means every dollar it takes, it will pay out 95c to somebody. This is the *predicted* result, which means it is what will happen in the long run, not necessarily every spin or every session, otherwise, you would be able to find guaranteed wins pretty often, but advantage playing doesn't mean you always win. It means you always win in the long run.

    Using this information, you simply calculate how many pennies away you are from the jackpot, which will be the number of spins you will have to do. Next, multiply the number of spins by the amount of money you have to spend per spin. Then you will get an astronomical number, and you deduct whatever the RTP is. So if you've got a 5k jackpot, and the RTP is 91% and it costs 5 dollars to raise the jackpot, you would look at the current value and do this calculation:

    >5000-current value (ex. 4880) = 120 dollars
    >Convert to pennies away from jackpot (120x100=12,000)
    >multiply by pennies spent per spin (12,000x500=6,000,000)
    >convert back to dollars (6,000,000/100=60,000)
    >multiply by house take (60,000x0.09=5,400)

    So what this tells you is the most predictable result is that you will spend 5,400 dollars in order to get 5,000, for a net loss of 400 dollars. This tells you that under these circumstances, the current value of the jackpot is not enough for a win to be likely. However, if the jackpot value is at 4910, it's a different story
    >5000-4910= 90 dollars
    >90x100=9,000
    >9,000x500=4,500,000
    >4,500,000/100=45,000
    >45,000x0.09=4050

    So the most likely result in this scenario is that you spend 4,050 dollars to get 5,000, resulting in a probable win of 950 dollars.

    Of course, likely does not mean inevitably. So you will have sessions where you seem some idiot gambler with no clue just mop up on bad plays, and you will lose on phenomenal plays sometimes. But you always take action that is most likely going to win, and the end result will be that over time, you always come out ahead. And by "over time", I mean over any amount of time other than at the individual game level. My winning days outnumber my losing days 15 to 1, and my best winning days are far, far more significant than my worst losing day. This doesn't just put you ahead when you stick to the program, it also mitigates your losses to such a degree that even if your day is going to be a losing one, you can always recover substantially enough that the damage is controlled."

Imagine 15 years ago if you told a Democratic voter that their 2020s party would be supporting and cheering on a mediocre male athlete who claimed he was a girl and then dominated real women in the sport. They'd call you a nutcase and say that there's zero chance they'd ever get behind such a preposterous idea.

    The things I once respected about Democrats -- their commitment to principles of free speech and civil liberties -- are now all but washed out of the party.
    Thank you. That's exactly what I have been saying for the last seven years.

    Honestly, I did vote for Gary Johnson in 2016, but where the Democrats really lost me (even before going socially nuts) is all of the bitching they did about Trump for the better part of four years. Not that Crimm would have noticed, but I have already said here that the first Impeachment was ridiculous; I said at the time it was ridiculous. When people were talking about Russian interference, I said that Trump won the election, fair and square, so they should just shut their mouths and live with it.

    Imagine my surprise, in 2020, when it would begin that we would have to listen to the Evangelical Right moan and bitch, just as loudly as the fucking liberals did, about the election being stolen from Trump. What is their evidence? Their evidence is the fact that Trump said so, therefore, it must be true.

    No, Biden won the election fair and square, the same way Trump did in 2016. There are identifiable reasons that Trump would beat Clinton; there are identifiable reasons that Biden would have beaten Trump.

    Furthermore, had it not been for Covid-19, Trump would have won. I'm not saying that it was his handling of Covid, per se, that caused him to lose---I'm saying that he almost definitely would have won reelection had there not been Covid-19 in the first place. A Democrat would have done SIGNIFICANTLY worse handling Covid than Trump did; they proved that in some of the states in which they had governorships by shutting down, 'Non-essential,' businesses for MUCH longer than was absolutely necessary...which would arguably have only been long enough to determine that social distancing, arguably, was helpful...which took only a few weeks.

    And, even then, businesses should not have been ordered, by the Government, to enact social distancing practices. Not by mandate. The Government is free to SUGGEST that businesses have social distancing guidelines, then if a particular business chooses not to do that, then the consumer can choose not to shop there.

    For those reasons, I agree with you completely on censorship and authoritarianism. Overall, I still think the left has it right on women's rights issues, at least in comparison, because they are pro-choice. Do you have any idea how many women, centrist or center-left, the Republicans could potentially get on their side just by conceding on that one issue? I imagine plenty. I cannot imagine that, at the end of the day, very many of these well to do suburban women want to pay higher taxes in the name of some pretend equality---which isn't equality at all, but rather, making people slaves to the Government cheese, thereby further preventing individual upward social mobility and keeping people under tighter control. They just want to be able to get an abortion if they have an accidental pregnancy, that's all.

    Anyway, you're absolutely right that their commitments to free speech and civil liberties are gone; that is why I am also gone from ever even loosely throwing in behind that party...even though Crimm seems to have trouble believing that.

    Of course, that doesn't change that I still believe in free speech and civil liberties to the greatest extent practicable, but that's why I am a Libertarian and not a Democrat.

    Firstly, I appreciate the compliments as to my writing and gambling math.

    Secondly, I appreciate you clearing up any misconception that I am some other person.

    Third and finally, I'm not a, "Never Trumper." If I were a Never Trumper, then I would have voted for both Clinton or Biden; I voted for neither of those two people.

    I recognize the possibility that anyone who doesn't swear undying fealty to Trump is a, "Never-Trumper," in your view.

    The fact of the matter is this: I don't hate Trump; I do hate a very high percentage of Trump's supporters. I dislike the fact that Trump is the most divisive political figure in my lifetime which has engaged a bunch of people, on both sides, in the political process who have no business being there because all they know how to do is yell, bitch, moan, cry and scream.

    Instead, political extremism has become the norm---which explains exactly why you would think I am a Never-Trumper.

    I will say that my economic positions used to trend left, but I have moved WAY to the right on those. The main reason for that is because I have seen what the Far Left is capable of and now hold the following views:

    1.) I don't care if they live or die, much less what their standard of living is.

    2.) They're authoritarians, which I automatically hate. That's no different than the churches.

    3.) If they hate the Government and the political process so much, then they don't need, nor deserve, the Government's help with anything. The Constitutional process says that Trump won, by the rules, in 2016. You can't run around bitching and saying, "NOT MY PRESIDENT!" Trump was, indeed, my President, during his time in office.

    They wanted enough states to be bound by the popular vote for their Electoral College votes, but they couldn't make that happen. They could have just showed an ounce of maturity and waited until 2020, but they went and attempted the first Impeachment which was absolutely ridiculous. Trump had done nothing warranting impeachment.

    Trump nominated Kavanaugh for the SCOTUS, but the Democrats tried to block that and brought all sorts of women out of the woodwork to make decades-old claims that, not only could not be proven, but there was not a shred of physical evidence that could even theoretically exist to support. It was a blatant character assassination for which Kavanuagh could have sought massive civil damages in any other context.

    So, all of your, "Never Trumper," shit is flatly wrong. If you want to engage in discussions with me, in a meaningful way, you'll have to do it with something other than your canned anti-liberal talking points...because I am not a liberal.

    On balance, I probably despise the Blue side more than I do the Red side, but that doesn't change my personal political values. I despise the blue side because they have proven themselves, as you see in my response to Druff, to be EXACTLY what they said they were not.

    Ergo, I'm a Libertarian. It's really that simple. If you want to know the truth, gun literally to my head, Trump or Biden---probably Trump.

    There's hundreds of games that you can do this with, and I can't explain them all, but I can explain how to figure out the jackpot threshold method.

    When you have a must-hit-by jackpot that increases in value per spin, you can calculate exactly which value is the threshold for advantageous play. Say for instance that it must hit by 5,000 dollars, and the current value is 4,999.99 dollars. You literally can't lose. The only possible outcome is that you get paid 5,000 dollars minus the cost of your spin. But since you'll never find that, you have to know what the minimum threshold is for an advantage. Here's how to do that

    First step is to figure out what coin-in amount moves the jackpot up by one cent. To do that you can play the game at each bet level and watch what happens. If you spin at one dollar, and nothing happens, then try two dollars, and it goes up one, then you know it's at least two dollars to move it. Spin it again, and if it doesn't move, then it's actually three dollars per penny. Spin it once at three dollars and it doesn't move, then you will know somebody before you fed it two dollars, and that the actual amount to increase it is five dollars. Spin it at five dollars a few times, and it increases each time, you know that's the coin-in per penny.

    Next you need to know the RTP (return to player). This is the percentage of every dollar that the machine pays out. If it is 95%, then that means every dollar it takes, it will pay out 95c to somebody. This is the *predicted* result, which means it is what will happen in the long run, not necessarily every spin or every session, otherwise, you would be able to find guaranteed wins pretty often, but advantage playing doesn't mean you always win. It means you always win in the long run.

    Using this information, you simply calculate how many pennies away you are from the jackpot, which will be the number of spins you will have to do. Next, multiply the number of spins by the amount of money you have to spend per spin. Then you will get an astronomical number, and you deduct whatever the RTP is. So if you've got a 5k jackpot, and the RTP is 91% and it costs 5 dollars to raise the jackpot, you would look at the current value and do this calculation:

    >5000-current value (ex. 4880) = 120 dollars
    >Convert to pennies away from jackpot (120x100=12,000)
    >multiply by pennies spent per spin (12,000x500=6,000,000)
    >convert back to dollars (6,000,000/100=60,000)
    >multiply by house take (60,000x0.09=5,400)

    So what this tells you is the most predictable result is that you will spend 5,400 dollars in order to get 5,000, for a net loss of 400 dollars. This tells you that under these circumstances, the current value of the jackpot is not enough for a win to be likely. However, if the jackpot value is at 4910, it's a different story
    >5000-4910= 90 dollars
    >90x100=9,000
    >9,000x500=4,500,000
    >4,500,000/100=45,000
    >45,000x0.09=4050

    So the most likely result in this scenario is that you spend 4,050 dollars to get 5,000, resulting in a probable win of 950 dollars.

    Of course, likely does not mean inevitably. So you will have sessions where you seem some idiot gambler with no clue just mop up on bad plays, and you will lose on phenomenal plays sometimes. But you always take action that is most likely going to win, and the end result will be that over time, you always come out ahead. And by "over time", I mean over any amount of time other than at the individual game level. My winning days outnumber my losing days 15 to 1, and my best winning days are far, far more significant than my worst losing day. This doesn't just put you ahead when you stick to the program, it also mitigates your losses to such a degree that even if your day is going to be a losing one, you can always recover substantially enough that the damage is controlled."
    The technical name for what that author was writing about is Mystery Progressives. The slang term is Must Hit By's. One could write a book about Mystery Progressives. They come in a myriad of configurations. I certainly have the Mystery Progressives in my playbook. But I get an MP play only once in a while. I would starve to death if all I knew how to exploit were the MP's. But in Australia they were huge.

    I don't know how it is today but Australia/New Zealand was the best place in the world for exploiting Mystery Progressives. The reason is because the meter speeds were so much better there than in the U.S. While in the U.S. you were lucky to find 1% meters with 4 figure jackpots, the meters over there were running 5% and 6% with low to mid 5 figure jackpots. That's huge.

    Peter Liston, an Australian, wrote the book, Million Dollar Slots, about his exploits on the MP's in Australia. It's my guess that Liston has made more money on slots than any person living. You can find the book on Amazon.

    The SCOTUS decision on abortion definitely hurt republicans with women. And women will soon forget it was republicans that got the DOJ off their asses over parents rights when it comes to their children in school.

    But I think the transgender athletes controversy favors the right. Republicans got a bill banning transgenders from competing in women's sports thru the house without one dem vote. The dem controlled house will shoot it down. But at least all those dems are on record being against it. Women are leaving the dem party in droves over the issue.

    The abortion issue will haunt the right.

    Was a great set up when they could just espouse the issue, now they have to carry water for the Christian lunatic right.

    The trans stuff makes for angry internet incels and cool memes but hasn't mattered much at the polls. Remember the red wave?

    Tranny issue is a big deal. BECAUSE THEY ARE TARGETING CHILDREN.

    The problem with abortion is timing. Most people are against at will up to birth.

    Helloooo there is adequate BIRTH CONTROL.

    Abortion is about making money off fetal tissues. Anyone participating in this enjoy rotting in hell. It is murder for money.
    Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn't pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same.
