    Discussion of other BJ Forum Sites

    Their terms of service don't appear to indicate this (the cited section 25a, for example). I'm guessing you made a complaint directly with ProBoards?

    Discussion of other BJ Forum Sites

    With exception to a few that this does not apply to: Slot APs are the sad-looking guys you see grinding away on penny slots while waiting for an old lady to get out of a seat so they can swoop in and make a $5 EV play. With any luck, they'll only lose $4 from the -EV slot play during their downtime!

    Grosjean selling table strategy cards?

    I'm guessing it also has information like the house edge given various payout variations so that recreational players can make informed decisions on how best to lose their money. -5.5%? No way! -2.32%? Now we're talking...

    Boards closing, discussion

    Also Ken, would it be possible to keep just the chat open, by chance?

    Boards closing, discussion

    While it's certainly disappointing to hear, I can't blame Ken for making such a decision, and I would like to thank him for running this board for as long as he did. This board was absolutely a crucial resource for me as I was getting started in AP, and I would almost certainly not be anywhere...

    The book

    Unfortunately, this has happened at all of the forums at one time or another. AP, BJF, BJ21, and now BJInfo. There are still plenty of valuable posts around, especially on the latter two sites, but petty in-fighting has certainly decreased the value of the dialogue greatly. I don't consider...

    The book

    CP, I've addressed you directly in PMs and in this thread, and you've chosen to flat out ignore my very straightforward answers to your questions. Your posts in this thread and in PMs range from baffling to outright threatening. In fact, unless I'm grossly misinterpreting your tone, the threat...

    A story about J.G.

    He was in disguise in all of the TV programs I've seen him on. B-roll is footage that isn't part of the primary story or interview, typically edited in to affect the pace or structure of a scene. Sometimes the unimportant details are the ones that give you the most information.

    A story about J.G.

    I think a lot of people overlook this aspect of AP. I also think that a lot of people seem to confuse career choice and contribution to society. Sure, a career can impact society positively or negatively, but it doesn't necessarily have to speak for an individual's non-work-related...

    A story about J.G.

    There's some easily-accessible B-roll footage from a television program that would explain the missing tooth—I have an acquaintance with a similar background that would frequently remove his false set of front teeth prior to getting into a fight!

    The book

    Good grief, you of all people... I'm unfortunately beginning to expect this kind of nonsense from CP (whose continued willingness to pretend that he didn't notice my previous posts in this thread is either seriously pathetic or highly troubling), but I'm surprised that you would so readily jump...

    The book

    I'm almost ready to purchase a second copy because mine looks terrible. When I first received the book, I immediately removed the dust cover, thinking it would be a prudent move to preserve the collectible value of the book (dust covers are a crucial part of this equation) — the joke was on me...

    Some helpful tips for anyone planning on playing

    My apologies for misunderstanding you. I thought you were parroting CP's absurd macho half-threats, but you were instead referring to the patronage of the area mentioned in the OP, I gather. My mistake. However, rest assured that I'm well aware of my surroundings at all times (as any serious AP...

    Some helpful tips for anyone planning on playing

    CP, you just don't get it. Either that, or you're purposefully ignoring the explanations given to you repeatedly by several posters in this thread directly contradicting the baseless accusations that you're making. Either way, this thread is about as useless as they come, and I hope that any...

    Are you intentionally ignoring my post in direct response to your incorrect interpretation of mine?
