You think the same way you play blackjack. There's so much more I would be interested in about Afghanistan without considering politics.

You bring up a good point. I am always interested in hearing from others who have experiences different from my own. Perhaps we can have some sort of forum where folks can share their experiences (subject to the no religion, no politics caveat). It could be similar to the Stories forum, but not dealing with AP play.

I repeat. It is virtually unknown outside of Reno/Tahoe.

Re: Side Counted Aces. I am still waiting for you to show us the absurd quote

supposedly made by the Good Bishop (Arnold) Snyder.

Oh, and by the way, you made the comment that ZeeBabar is a retired physician.

That is hilarious. He is a retired College Counselor from Afghanistan - a galaxy away

from being an M.D.

What purpose did you have in stating:

"Flash, you still dont get it. Do you. Why do you think they flat bet you on good ole Miss?
Why do you think you couldn't last in Reno for a week? All these years and you "still" think it's them.
Has the notion ever crossed your mind that maybe it's you?"

The legions of those who have benefited from my mentoring, and many of which
I have teamed with in actual play across this country use you as a "laughing stock."
Several A.P.'s use "moses" as a handy term to describe someone who plays BJ but
knows a fraction of what they think they know. The fact that you compulsively post
with your hostile sarcasm and silly sports analogies, criticizing your betters, etc. is
lost upon you. You lack insight and are incapable of perceiving how it is that others
see you.

Ryemo. Im not laying down for this, so here come post 32 or whatever.

Flash, splitting hares you rabbit ass. You know i was talking about Reno and surrounding areas. I don't know who or what you think you know but 7 Unhelpful would be an indicator people are tired of Hi Opt ii being shoved up their ass in every single thread. Better? You are certainly no better than me you arrogant prick. You are a legend in you own mind. Truly pathetic. Unless you get a casino that lets you play your game you are finished. Because you can't take your foot off your ego long enough to make the necessary adjustments. So they are the stupid ones because you can't play your way?

I dunno about Zee. He said he had his own practice. I was hoping it wasnt in brain or heart surgery. Never could figure out why a doc would get in an argument with an employee over helping himself to candy at Walmart . I guess it's the same entltlement he carried over to the forum.

Google Arnold and his statement yourself. Im not your damn servant. No worries I have the article.

Since Don S and Norm dont stand up on this Hi opt ii crusade, it bares repeating. Saying it over and over again doesn't make you right and everyone else wrong. It only proves you are a pompas ass hole. I posted a page from Norm's book that reflected results of all the systems. So why can't go about you own business and admit you are wrong and average at best. You are nothing special.

These never ending threads are a result of T3 and Flash imposing their will on Hi Opt II. EOR will never change. However, constant change proves historical. Create confusion to confound the understanding. You don't need a mentor.

Wong Halves and Perfect Insurance is the best way to keep up with it all.

For a deeper understanding of the game see Moses Column Charts and Explanation.

Top engineers have the ability to understand complex equations. But the best ones can make complex simple again.

Shhh everyone
Foreplay in progress.

Why in the blue thunder would I take advice on Reno from someone that's never been here, couldnt last a week 20 years ago, and over a decade ago in the most dangerous place at that time.

I seriously doubt you and Flash are roaming the country making $100K a year. It's human nature to be cautious to strangers. Essentially, that is what you'd be doing and constantly up against.

Now, it's going to take 20 years for the long run. No guarantees. At the end of the tour, Im nearly 80. What then? Guess I will buy a nice house in the foothills and enjoy life. Whoops. I did that at 52.

What a hell of a life that would be to be on the road about 75% of the time. Ive done it for 4 1/2 straight months for many years. It's not as easy as you think and I was guaranteed money.

T3. ANYONE THAT ADVOCATES A PERFECTLY ABLE BODIED MAN BORROW A WHEELCHAIR IS INSANE. YOU KNOW YOU DID IT. YOUR DELETION OF OF THE POST ADMITS TO YOUR ABOSOLUTELY HORRIBLE POST.

To bring this back to AP, with a little bit of work and scouting, I can the vantage point I want for hole carding. These types of things exist if you keep your mind open.
