Welcome agent 44. You may get questions about surveillance -- not gambling. This isn't a gambling site.

I'm part of a FBI liaison but that doesn't mean I'm FBI.

Edit: In another post he provided his website mannyolaer.com
Very "informative"

Wait, is this guy legit? If so, where did you work (you can just specify region or corporation if you want)?

Looks like "Pa ris." I do believe he was in surv. Just doesn't understand AP at all. That's OK. Not part of his job. But, I suggest he spend more time reading and less commenting. I won't stop his posts for now, even though his posts and site contain so much misinformation, as I saw one hint of something useful.

Manny, I'm not trying to be insulting. You may have information on surv that is useful. Please realize that you do not understand advantage play and you will not sell your betting info to anyone here.

Really? If you found anything on that site informative, I'd give up all forms of AP right now! Unless of course you're looking for a formula for calculating roulette payouts:

Straight bet win payout are computed by units. Straight bet win is 35 to 1. That is the number of units divided by 2 multiplied by 7 then add 0 will be the payout. Example $16 divided by 2 = 8 x 7 = 56 add 0 = $560.

My apologies, you had me worried for a minute there.

I tend to have a worrying effect on people

Professional level are often invisible to the casinos because their blackjack strategies don't show up in the blackjack strategy voice analysis. Everybody in the pit knows what a card counter looks like. If you're going to make it now, you won't look like a counter. Your blackjack play would make perfect sense with AP. But, it would leave Arnold Snyder himself sratching his head in bewilderment.

Blackjack strategy voice analysis?

Funny thing is, I think I get the gist of what Manny is saying in some of his enigmatic, and apparently rambling posts, and he's not incorrect - arguably he is correct from surveillance's perspective. I think

Presumably English is not Manny's native language and he seems to have a hard time articulating his thoughts clearly through written English.
