    Kevin, just ignore Tthree like half the forum already does. He's made claims he can make 5x the EV with less variance as a HiLo player, under the same conditions. AFAIK, that's better than computer-perfect play. Most of the "tweaks" on his game he talks about are things that normal people do anyway, like play 2 hands, wong in or wong out, etc. Then the extra EV is multiplied because he thinks the EV is compounded when it's not really like that (ie: learning a million negative indices isn't going to help you if you wong out at -2). He is a genius, does not feel pain, and can play better than a computer. I'm sure there are some other tales he's posted that you can find, if you search through the 13k+ posts.

    Thanks, RollingStoned, I thought he (3)was at least in the ballpark, but seems like he is in another world. The confirmation helps me know what I am dealing with.

    I assure you, half the forum doesn't have Tthree ignored. There are very, very few who have him ignored, and even more likely that you've scored just as many ignores as he has, RS. Not meaning that you're a bad guy at all, though you certainly do come off with the abrasiveness one would expect from a whetstone, its just that, while argumentative, Tthree is very entertaining, and almost never wrong with his insights, he's just from another world, akin to a Dr. Sheldon Cooper type. Ignoring his posts would be idiotic and futile; The information, though hard to understand at times because he has a weird way of delivering them, is absolutely useful.

    I'm not entirely sure what your beef with Tthree is, and frankly I don't really care all that much, but campaigning for an individual to ignore another seems a bit juvenile.

    He (Norm) has certainly been accused of that much so far, whether its true is a "he said, she said, nobody will ever find out" kind of deal.

    He is absolutely out of the ballpark and from another world, but there are few people on this forum with his level of insight into the mathematics behind some of the deeper intricacies of being an AP.

    As we sit right now, you're both arguing about bullshit semantics on how a casino might legally or illegally chop up its in house progressives from its poker room it was closing, and at the end of the day its a done deal!

    I like abrasive, rather then a dunderhead. In this political correct century, I would sooner hear it as it is. I think R. S. has hit the nail on the head. I have played enough years to know who is smart and who is not, sometimes it takes a while to get past the smoke. I have seen players that say they always win, that they have this system and that system, but usually its all bullshit! As for 3, I would have to vote for the bull!

    It's probably in a paid-for subforum. I don't have access to it either.

    I'm the same way, Kevin. Give me the good or bad, but give it to me straight. That's more honesty, than abrasive, though. I was once very much on your side of the fence with the same opinion of T3, we would go back and forth for days and weeks about a great many topics, to the point that I felt so annoyed I even took a long hiatus from the forum. When I came back, T3 was still the same, but somehow we were arguing less and agreeing more, it was weird, almost as if someone had replaced the processor on the "Little Robotic Asian Woman" (inside joke). The reality of it was that, with a clearer mind and no real opinion to defend, I was able to read his posts with much greater clarity. I respect the hell out of T3 because he's one of maybe two or three people on this forum who can understand the raw value of being an AP, even outside of blackjack, without having to be spoonfed the complete information on what "game" it is being taken advantage of. Since then, I've gone back to read some of his posts from around that time and understand what he was trying to say to me while I was being stubborn.

    I guess what I'm trying to say is that communication here on the forum can be a fickle thing. Most all of us are pretty solid dudes in real life. I suspect even Don S isn't the shrewd "get off my lawn" grandpa that I believe him to be. Its an easy thing to pick someone out on a forum we don't like simply based on how they post, or based on public opinion, perhaps even because we've misunderstood their posts.

    We definitely looked like Arch Enemies early on, then ZenKing came in for a while and took some of that attention away from you. It took me a while to realize, though we often had different opinions, at the end of the day we were both on the same side, and you were an ally to be had, not an enemy.

For me, that's the purpose of the forum. But I've got to admit these cast of characters makes it fun and entertaining.
    He is a very bright guy, and definitely a bit of a character.

    You made the mistake of thinking T3 was even Human

    Definitely not T3's PR rep, though I very much support him today.

    I'm thinking Ex had a little too much to drink one night and was trying to ride a horse. It turned out to be a mean old bull. He saw Jesus.
