I might be on someone's list for dumb plays

Recently playing double deck against a dealer who flashed the hole card about half the time, I split 6,6 vs a dealer 9, knowing the dealer had a 7 in the hole.
Result: I win 3 bets, whole table shaking their heads, half the players left the table but after a couple of other very strange plays I decided that I was getting more attention than a lucky idiot should get, so I left.

The idot to my right holds A9, I hold X6 - the idiot hits and get 10 for 20, I hit and get a 5 - I congradulate the player to my right on his "genius" and he nods affirmatively. zg

worst I've seen was a guy doubling on 14!!! with dealer showing a 5. The amazing thing is he actually hit a 21! LOL. :laugh: lucky bastard!

The worst I ever saw was a player wave a 14 when the dealer had inadvertantley exposed the next card as a 7. Dealer had a 4 up if I remember correctly, it was a bust card at least. The dealer thought a player hit when they didn't giving them a 7 which busted them. The PB said the 7 is the next card to be played, everyone saw it, keeping the player who was dealt the card in the game. Player with 14 refused to hit or double dispite the insistence of the players at the table. She would say, "the dealer has a 4, I never hit 14 vs a 4".

I don't recall how the hand played out but that was the worst play I have ever seen.

I have also seen guys standing on 9 or hitting 17. Bad plays sure but they are trying to do something to the "flow of cards" so I don't look at this as badly as they are at least trying to be strategic.

You should have bought her hand and doubled it. And you call yourself an AP? :rolleyes:

i haven't seen anything memorable recently, well until very recently.

i had a player at my table standing routinely on 13/14 v T, but hitting them against dealer 2,3,4,5! and this table had LS!

Talk about backward BS!

I am, but I'm a different breed of AP than most of the posters here. I don't buy into that "card counting" and "shuffle tracking" and "hole carding" mularkey. I however excel at calculating the flow of card index. This guy's insane hit on A7 caused it to go from +267 to -389, so I had to on hard 7 as a "short term tactical disadvantage play" to get the gaming gods back on my side. Besides, I knew I was a big favorite to win anyway because I know that the dealer busts 61.54% of the time when showing 5 based on the results of my 13 hand computer simulation (in fact, that's probably a conservative estimate, seeing as how I used the absolute unluckiest number of trials.) I didn't do so well last time dropping that $2700, but I'll be back in Vegas in no time to crush those single deck games on the Strip. They don't call it the "party pit" at the Flamingo for nothing!
I will give you even money odds on a 5 up that the dealer will not bust all day! Since the dealer has a 61.54% chance of busting you will get the best of it. By the way the worst play I have ever heard off is staying on 7 doesn't matter what the up card is.

Gordon I just love your flow of card index, your short term tactical disadvantage play, getting the gaming gods back on my side, and especially your 13 hand computer simulation. You are a true rarity: a classic voodooer, who knows all the right VD moves. Are you really Jerry Patterson? I see you are also an expert at not taking the dealer bust card, as standing on your 7 is a sure indication of just that... By the way mate, malarkey doesn't have a U. I'd think someone disciplined in malarkey would at least know how to spell it. I hope you got your $2700 back off those crooks. If so, I bet it was because you got a better table and seat selection system...

I also figure true voodooers love hole card shenanigans. So I don't swallow that stuff you are claiming. Which is why I reckon you will go for this: Hole card glasses, only 4 grand a pair. :cat:

Where can I buy this "Flow of Card Index" book?

I'm dying to count something that has things like this involved:
"This guy's insane hit on A7 caused it to go from +267 to -389"

The lost book of the Holey Sacred Flow of the All Knowing Cards is rumored to be buried somewhere in the Nevada dessert. The previous owner had hidden the book there for fear it would be taken from him while traveling to Europe to play blackjack. Similar to the legend of Excalibur (perhaps it is buried under that joint) only one who has a true heart to the All Knowing Sacred Flow of the Cards is capable of finding the lost book.

Unfortunately for the earlier poster, the world is loaded with counterfeit books and all who follow these false messages are doomed.:grin:

Dear Grand Mucketymuck, Only one such as you who is versed in Voodoo and its many strange and mysterious ways is able to immediately go to the core of the Voo issue. You are one of the very few to consistently demonstrate your appreciation of - your profoundly deep understanding of - the throb of the Voodoo Beat that courses consistently through the majority of the vast numbers of the world's Blackjack players, as they ploppily play, ever onward and upward, forever. You know where they are coming from, indeed, what makes them tick.

Your use of Voo jargon is noted: Holey Sacred Flow, All Knowing Cards, ... rumored to be buried in the Nevada dessert... (is that ice cream dessert?)... hidden... Legend... Excalibur... doomed... Wow, exciting stuff, Muck. I was hoping to see Arnold Schwarts-his-name mentioned as well as some sword fighting down at MGM or something exciting like that, instead of the boring stuff they have there.

You gave the faithful a cryptic voodoo clue where that sacred book might be found. Can you give us a clue as to exactly where we might start digging with our shovels, as that is a pretty big joint... the big E... Salutations, Dear One. :cat:

I think it will be either National Treasure IV or a 90 year old Indiana Jones in a movie called, The Search For the Holy Flow, where the clues will be forthcoming. Of course the movie will end with the book found but confiscated by overbearing casino security who will lose it in the lost and found department of a major casino.

P.S. The ability to not spell is a prerequiste for the position of Grand Mucketymuck.

And the 2039 movie opens with a creaky 90-y-old Indiana, (along with his gorgeous 28-y-o girlfriend in a bikini), hobbling around on top of a heap of wooden crates and he pokes his walking stick at ONE particular crate, among tens of thousands. At that moment, a gang of casino security staff burst in, headed by the worst, bald headed, evil badass casino manager of all time, carrying a rocket launcher, 10 grenades, a cell phone and a pineapple, and... :cat:

Far more than 99% sure there are no perverts here

The huge demand for the MkIII model that sees through everything has driven the price up. Part of the massive attraction is because it comes with an Ovaltine decoder ring that some here are already familiar with. I believe that all the many customers from here purchased the glases with a view to seeing through only the cards. I don't for a moment believe any APs are distracted by looking inside gorgeous ct waitress' underwear. APs are always far too focused and concentrated for any perversions. Of this I am far more than 99% sure. :cat:

Well I've only played a few times, but I can beat most of these stories:

Dealer has a T showing, and he accidentally flips up his down card, revealing a face card for a total of 20. Everybody sees this very clearly. Floor man comes over and flips the card back and jokingly tells us to pretend we didn't see it and continue as normal.

Player to my right (who is a few fries short of a happy meal, to say the least...) has 16. He hesitates for a while trying to think what to do. I tell him to surrender. He ignores my advice and chooses to hit. A 2 rolls off so he now holds 18. I tell him to hit again. He ignores me again and stands.

wtf????
