scorpio2, I am just trying to figure out why you feel the need to refute and criticize someone like shadowman who has:
 
1) demonstrated a thorough knowledge of the games
2) played frequently enough to actually judge theories such as rigged pay tables and slot card myths and found them invalid through great repetition
 
based on an opposing theory that in its very nature is based on short periods of play that are more subject to emotion than statistical evidence?  I have no problem with you saying that repetitive long-term play is not the best method of gambling for everyone (it is not for me at this time in my life), but surely it is a necessary part of actually determining the nature of the machines. Drawing comclusions based on assumptions with limited data is, quite simply, not smart. So what is your purpose exactly in this exercise?

I know what it is, and your response makes no sense because of that.
 
Do you not have a meaningful reply? It's a simple question, really.
 
People have been accusing the casinos of not being on the up and up since the beginning of casinos. To do so based on limited play rather than evidence is not brilliance. It is amateur, at best. So what's the reasoning? Simple question.

One little tidbit you may want to know about, scorp. The player's cards are read by a completely separate device from the VP machine. It's another little electronic device with its' own memory. So, now you need the game manufacturer, the card reader manufacturer and the casino all in cohoots. They would all be risking their licenses to operate.
If you think that makes sense, scorp, then you may need some remedial courses in logic.
 
BTW, scorp, did you look up any regulations? Didn't think so.
 
As for people always losing when they have free rooms ... haven't you read a single trip report on this site? Several people have already proved that theory is as bogus as all the rest of your nonsense.

There is that term again "MACHINE PATTERN". You have been visiting the jokers site I see.

You're welcome. What did you learn? That it's better to actually educate yourself on a subject? That casinos aren't cheating players because they can win fortunes by playing within the rules? That presenting evidence instead of just theories makes for a coherent argument?  That long term results can reveal more about the actual performance of machines and strategies than short sessions? Oh, please tell me you have learned at least one of these things because I fear not.
