    Burning down my home town...

    Last night (5-3-22), I lit on a DD game here where I live in a remote city of NV...Lo and behold - yet again - there was another youngster spreading one hand of $15 to two hands of $400 on each. I got up to leave, but before leaving I discreetly told him he was going to burn this joint down spreading like that!...He replied "I don't care, I'm never coming back here anyway"....I told him "well I care, I've been playing here for many many years and I hate to see the place on fire". Sure enough, the next time he made that ludicrous spread they made a phone call and shut the table down... After I left I went to my favorite SD joint and sure enough, there he was again in the process of burning that joint down also!....I've been playing in this town for 40 years and have never lost a joint. I play green and never spread more than 1 to 4 units, and even then, I get to 4 units only by parlaying from 2 units. Occasionally I will add a 5th unit if the C warrants it....The point I am trying to make is this. Not often, but now and then here comes an unhinged asshole like the one above, hell-bent on looting, pillaging and burning down the whole town. I am so sick of it as after one of these firestorm events I have to stay away for a month or two until things cool down! When something like this happens all the joints get on the horn with each other and "APB's" go out....I'm sure this post will create a shit-load of controversy, but felt it needed posting anyway, hoping it might thwart future events like this debacle....Same Ronster...."Luck is the residue of design"

    You are not obligated to help him or anyone. It would be different if he is looking after your interest by not burning the joint. They are very few playable games now due to these guys. it is just part of AP.

    LOL. It sure doesn't surprise me. I love the " I don't care" comment. Obvious They don't . Why should you either, Go rat on him. You are only looking after your own interest.

    Typical attitude of Colin's cult members. A few months ago, I saw a young guy spreading from 1x15 to 2x1000. Needless to say, he didn't last long.

    Most dealers make $30 an hour. They probably will not let you win very much from them if they perceive a threat there.

    You don't say a damn word is what you do. You don't own the joint and you're only outing YOURSELF!

    I would be happy to have that guy at my table. Surveillance would NOT be watching me with that kind of action in the next seat.

    Au contraire. As they are watching the guy, someone in surveillance is likely to say, "hey, look at that guy next to him..."

    He Already talked to him. If talking is so effective the world is a peaceful place. Not attacking, just saying this is a hard fact.

    Not that I have a better solution than, say, paying him to leave.

    I guess I'm one of Collins cult members. I'm relatively new to this, and I thought that was the new meta in counting. I thought people were moving towards large spreads, and being less worried about backoffs. Does the BJA community have a bad rep here?
