I thought about this after I wrote it ...

[/ QUOTE ]

Slots and video gaming are all zero memory strategies. Other than memorizing what the optimal play is in games where you have a decision to make -- the strategy is not dependent on any other factors. So, unlike poker -- it's a single player game. There is no raising, bluffing, or any other strategic signals that can be exploited. VP is like playing pure basic strategy at BJ.

[/ QUOTE ]

Yeah, there were much better examples to be made. Like BJ and most other gambling games. Not all are created equal, which is what I was trying to get across. There are games no one can beat and games that just about anyone willing to pretend to care can beat.

All those words and still no mention of a law disallowing a payuback over 100%? It is acceptable for you to admit you are wrong but unacceptable to continue to insist you were correct.

My post was not aimed at you but:

[ QUOTE ]
Two I said some Slots have +EV situations that are hard to find but are out there.

[/ QUOTE ]

I know what you are trying to say but, in reality, every single slot or VP machine in the world, is a possible +EV situation at any given time.

I am simply stating that a slot or a VP machine is pre-programmed by law to return less than 100% Return To Player (can usually be anywhere from 80-99% RTP depending on operator and or juristiction). It is mathematically impossible to be a winner on slots or VP in the long run, irrespective or your strategy and/or "skill".

[/ QUOTE ]

you're wrong...there are over 100% video poker machines with memorized basic strategy

I have family members that beat those games routinely for fun

Me, how do you care to pay me? You see your problem? You cannot either prove whether or not I am being truthful or lying but neither can you show me a legal statute supporting your position. You should be more careful in the future when making outrageous claims.

Obviously as it is this easy, they are thinking about going pro right? After all if you can beat a gambling machine so easy (just for fun) whats stopping them from scooping all this easy cash on a daily basis?
