Update on pending articles
A few weeks ago I was asked several questions by some of the folks here on the forum which inspired me to write a few articles. One of them is entitled ,"The Death of Doubt" which will cover how we proved to ourselves that VP machines were fair and random back in the 90's during my tenure with the large progressive teams.It will be followed by an article entitled, "Open Season on Doubt", which will detail how you as an individual can confirm or rule out chance as the most probable explanation for your gambling results. It will also show you how to spot true randomness and differentiate between real and illusory patterns. This article will be math heavy, but I'm going to walk you though it in such a way that anyone should be able to grasp it and use it.Another article inspired by forum posters will be entitled, "The Very Special (not)Theory of Relativity", which will explain how "rules" effect our perceptions of casino results, without really effecting anything else and why they are a fast track to self deception. Loss limits, win goals and other "rules" will be covered.I'm also working on an LVA article entitled, "Everyone Can't Be Right", which has some rules of thumb for telling opinion from fact in gambling advice.The next two months in BJI will be taken up on the Dr. McCown interview on problem gambling prevention, and there's a one month delay between when I publish there and when I can share it with you all here. Expect them in about 3 months and sorry for the delay.My main reason for this post was to let you all know your questions were not forgotten. I simply felt they were so important I gave them my full attention and turned them into full articles, so that more than just the readers here could benefit from the answers.Thank you all for your input and inspiration. You'd make excellent muses.~FK

Frank where can we read these articles?
Currently they are available through the Blackjack Insider News Letter, and soon they will be appearing on the Las Vegas Advisor. And I will post them here a month after they appear at BJI for those of you that don't have a subscription.Here's the BJI site and my most recent offering:http://www.bjinsider.com/newsletter_145_pysch.shtml ~FK
