Nope he doesn't unnerve me at all. Just doing the vp public a favor and letting them know he is nothing more than a con.
 
As long as it's not an Argentino sewing machine I'm sure we're all fine.

Shadowman I remember that brand went into bankruptcy due to poor management and shoddy products. But the CEO had a golden paracute so he got himself a scooter and a bottle of Jack and set out for Vegas and is running a new scam. It could be just a rumor and not the TRUTH.

do the machines pay more on a holiday,as i imagine the employees get holiday pay today(veterans)day?

[oej719]

They pay 1 1/2 times on legal holidays if you use special plays, but the catch is they only hit 1/2 as often.

Another little known fact is that for one day every leap year, February 29th, an extra Ace is in the deck for JoB games, an extra Deuce for DW, and an extra Joker for JW.  A programmer I know who worked for a game company told me that.

It seems nowadays, anyone will write a book on getting an edge on the casino as they know theres someone willing to buy their book, regardless if it's a scam. Just to gain some kind of advantage on the house which will NEVER happen although there is much one can do to lower the house edge.

why all the mortgage forclosures in las vegas,as quoted on cnbc?

[oej719]

They over paid for homes and thought it was ok as long as they kept increasing in value.
Values dropped and they now owe more than the house is worth. In some cases alot more. Now they have no equity.

[EDC1977]

And many who did buy those overpriced homes had no business doing so paying low interest ARM loans at interest only which was affordable as heck for the day but now that the value has dropped, the rate increased and the principal kicked in, they have nothing but foreclosure or bankruptcy which OEJ knows someone who did just that!
