All Degens are not created equal. From what I've read in his posts/blog, Newhizzle's gambling is driven by an ability to convince himself he has an edge where he really doesn't. Or at the very least, that he could possibly have an edge, even if he's not sure that actually does. He's obviously a smart guy, so that's not going to happen in the pit.

Although it often skirts around the edges of the pit, the MONEY WHEEL is an often overlooked and underappreciated gem of a game.

If you have not heard of the money wheel, perhaps you have heard it referred to by its somewhat more ominous name..."The Widow Maker".

I've also seen some very fine looking mature ladies playing this exciting game. Who knows what possible romantic relationships may unfold at the money wheel?

The big wheel is the most baller of all pit gambling. It just proves you're crazy and don't give a sh*t about money. It's like making it rain at a strip club, only you're showering the casino with EV.

My bro Lonnie D'Doogers can be found steam pressing napkins (twenties) on the big wheel at the wynn most weekends.

All, as WSOP Pit regular and midstakes craps grinder I have never once ran into Mark in the pit this world series. In fact, last week he decided to go upstairs and grind online instead of blowing off some steam. I doubt he will have many issues with the pit. If he does though, I will offer my services in +ev craps grinding.

Yeah he actually busted me on Day 2 of the $3000 LHE. Really funny guy, BTW, I assumed he'd be kind of a douchebag but he isn't.

Agreed. He was at my starting table in the $2000 Stud Hi/Lo event. Nice guy, dry sense of humor but funny. I won a last longer with him. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

Matt,

"I have never once ran into Mark in the pit this world series."

This is sad. Mark could have sick amounts of fun gambling in the pit with a fraction of what he blows off when on tilt in big games or loans out to degens who will never pay him back.

Hizzle,

Try this. Next time someone wants to borrow money from you, tell them the following (let's say it's 5k):

You will go down to the pit with them and gamble 5k. If you lose the 5k, they don't get to borrow 5k (same thing, 5k you'll never see again). If you win 5k or more, they get to borrow 5k.

++++++EV scenario for you.

Not a prediction, but an easily verifiable fact: the guy is nearly illiterate.

As long as he gets less then ~49% of his loans paid back in the long run, this is actually a great idea.
