Re: What Can I Learn From Dancer
bob killed vp as with his cards in the hands of many tourists killing higher denom fpdw the best game is 25c a skilled player playing 2 machines at a time with close to perfect play can average 14.00 per hour with no benifits and minimal comps to get a bigger edge is to play other games like 8/5 bp 99.2% basic and with royal atleast 2x becomes 101.2 average but the swings between royals can be tough to withstand i play more live poker bigger edge less long term swings

Saying Bob killed VP is like saying The Arabs are the only ones hiking up the cost of gas and Mexican Drugs cartels are to blame for all our drug problems. You aren't taking into account supply and DEMAND. 15 years ago I was offered as much as $200 for team strategies that at the time only I had access to. People were begging me for them. The public is responsible for the demand for VP information and before Bob distinguished himself, there were providers popping up all over the place. Lenny Fromme, Stanford Wong, Dan Paymar, just to name a few.In my opinion you are looking at the conclusion and not taking into account the story so far. No one person is responsible for the state of VP today. It was a natural progression that grew out of improvements in computer technology and public demand. It was unavoidable. If it hadn't been Bob it would have been someone else. No stopping progress and all that. If I had to point a finger it would be at Stanford Wong who blew the lid off VP return (with his software VPexact). Up 'till that point only the Teams knew accurately what VP machines returned. Prior to this, not even the game manufactures knew exactly what the hold of VP machines was. They guessed and did statistical analyses.Bob filled a hole people were asking to be filled. If you can just convince everyone in the world to stop asking for strategies, I have no doubt he and others like him will stop making them.Good luck on that:)

To me Bob Dancer is a shrewd businessman. He knows videopoker players are for the most part suckers, even the most mathy of the bunch. He knows we will do just about anything to make it feel better, and he fills that need for us. Smart.
