I am a literal legend of gambling, ask me anything.
What im doing is a gift to this dead site but they will probably lock the thread since they want no traffic or interest.
Searched "hosts", this thread popped up, asking here.
First time using host, rooms covered.. what's the tip situation? x amount per night? x% of total bill?
Sure this has been covered, appreciate the feedback
i assume youre talking about a vegas host. thats far different than a poker game host. poker game hosts generally dont want tips because they play in the game and win your money.. many vegas hosts cant/wont take tips, they get paid on your action anyway. ask him for something you dont expect and then if he does it tip him 10% of what its worth. if he doesnt take tips you can buy him a small gift based on something he likes. rooms are nothing, no tip. buffet nothing, parking nothing, line passes nothing. see if you can get a bottle of crystal or golf comped. thats much tougher and tip if your host goes above and beyond.
Limon,
I was reading the old privateworld threads and came upon this post https://forumserver.twoplustwo.com/showp... can you expand on this? How did it work, how much were they making, who was involved?
edit: You talked about it here I hadn't gotten to that part yet, sorry. https://forumserver.twoplustwo.com/showp...

At one point in time I was one of the only people on here explaining how and how much cheating was online. At the time I was shouted down from every corner but subsequently proven 100% correct. I’ve basically been proven 100% correct about every “hot” take I had about poker over a decade ago and the cool holla balla poker “pros” who shouted me down are long gone.
Was going through some records and you might find this interesting. This is how you make a good upper middle class living (not cheeseburger money) in modern pro poker. You play the best game in the house at all times. No ego, hard work. My February games played:
Geez this is impressive, might as well be living in the California Spilt universe. Who are you most similar to in the movie, Elliot Gould or George Segal (not taking into account appearance)? Probably your hottest take over the years that is true: California Spilt>>>>>>>Rounders.
Hint: In California Split, George Segal's character has a job.
ETA: Obviously California Split >>>Rounders. Robert Altman >>>> John Dahl.
Is it ever ok to slow roll a whale? If so, what type of circumstance would it be optimal?
Big pot, medium, small? Friendly whale or tilty whale? Etc.
Feel free to sloroll a whale who slowrolls you first as long as it’s in the “spirit of fun and lively gamesmanship”.
So part 2 is it ok to go out of your way to always slow roll (literally every single chance whether pot is 2bb or 2000BB) a reggy reg who fake claims to be a Rec but really is more of a reg than a rec and loves to needle?
No, it is not okay to slowroll Limon.

Slowroll anyone who is bad for the game including me if I deserve it. Lol. I’ve been slow rolled many times and basically never slowrolled back, 99% of the time the slow roller is a fish. I feel I gain psychological ascendency by not caring.
A lot of this discussion started about high stakes poker being dead and disappearing altogether. I've spent some time looking into this and I don't see this as being the case. I see a lot of 5/10 games spread out across the entire country (live). 10/20 and higher, with structures like 10/20/50 + bb ante, etc are everywhere live. I don't know what's going on in LA as I've always been based out of the NYC area but perhaps SoCal isn't the live poker hub it once was. /shrug.
Online? WPN and BOL both
I told, ya! Big time, high stakes poker exists en masse outside of LA. Move out of the sticks, Gentlemen!
Limon, u may have been asked this question before. I’ don’t want to look thru all the posts and understand if u don’t want to answer it again, but what is ur opinion of the Robbie Garrett hand? I thought no cheating from the very beginning.
Enjoy ur comments and contributions.
Why do I suck so bad with the driver, and slice with all the longer clubs?

It's literally addressed on page 1 of the thread.
Thx
Please give more examples of how to get psychological ascendency. Does running it once every time for example gain this by putting the fear of god in opponents who face an all in pre or on flop etc?

running it once only matters against low bankroll nit grinders. you gain psychological ascendency against a mid-reg when your opponent realizes you are going to outfight and outlast them and so they stop making marginal plays against you and start just giving you the tiny pots. you gain psychological ascendency agains a whale when they just want to ship it blind against you and run it twice, they just see every hand with you as a complete gamble.

ya, you dont have to read too far! but just start reading, it will be worth it.
there's a game show you are deeply incentivized to win and the goal is to insert as many flaccid dildos in your mouth at once as possible
how many do you think you can fit?
can flipping the double bird mid hand when they’re tanking versus my bet and/or after beating them out of a pot also give me psychological ascendency over a player?
