Story behind Fishhead?

[paco]

Been seeing lots of threads with his name? Whats the story behind fishhead? Sbr legend? Alumni? Banned list? Pro gambler?

[SlickFazzer]

His team took casinos for around 500,000 playing slots in the 90's.

Also an accomplished poster on numerous home and garden forums.

[pavyracer]

Storyteller. He doesn't even know where to put the coins in the slot machine. He may know how to plant eggplants though.

[accuscoresucks]

he must of been one of the mit elites
of taking vegas

[onthewhat]

Fishhead has confirmed the total to be in the $500,000-$600,000 range

The guy is a professional sports bettor, poker player, casino player, gardner, and poster. He is the jack-of-all-trades.

[accuscoresucks]

fishhead is a legendary fisherman
known to catch a steelhead trout in the colorado river using only a homemade cloverleaf hook

I've always thought a book was in order on "The great slots run of the late 90's"...........much more entertaining than the MIT BJ junk.


Onthewhat--Not really a jack-of-all-trades........but certainly in the things you did list. In fact, that covers about 90% of what I know in life.

Fish, u da man!

[Fishhead]

For the record........

Moved to Vegas at the age of 24 and worked my way up in the sportsbook business from writer to cashier to supervisor/oddsmaker to assistant manager where I worked for nearly 10 years...................then retired in 1994 to pursue a life of gambling for a living.

I play video poker, bet sports, slots, poker, and a tad of blackjack.........occassionally other gaming games if promos or something +ev attracts me to them.

They should make a movie of your life. "Fishhead: The most interesting man in the world"

[SlickFazzer]

When Fishhead talks people should listen.

[pavyracer]

I've just farted Slicker.

[SlickFazzer]

Paver, I get the hunch you are not convinced of Fishhead's gaming prowess?

[onthewhat]

We should be blessed that Fishhead posts here. He has a lot of wisdom that could be shared.

[Fishhead]

I've just farted Slicker.

That's more than I've accomplished today.

However, did manage to profit $214 in 6 hours of grinding at the poker tables.

Oh, put $10 of fuel in my truck.............and had some food.

I agree with you, at this stage in my life, my life is less significant than at least 87.4% of the posters on this board.

I think he is a phony life insurance salesman. I don't want to listen from another internet hero like Nicky. Everyone is fukking making millions here beating the books and casinos but they live worse than homeless people. Don't get me started with this crap again.

most real pros live a low profile.

Come to the SBR bash.................

By the way, have met literally hundreds of posters on this board over the years.......and many I am glad to say are good friends of mine.

If you have to ask who is Fishead, it is probably a pretty good idea you leave the forum. No disrespect but this is a given question that every poster/gambler knows. This was an insult to ask who he is. He deserves better than this kind of thread. It is an honor to even post in the same forum as Fishface.

[pavyracer]

I took a mega crap at the crapper when I saw this thread. Flashed the toilet thrice.

To me your a breath of fresh air........I like your style kid.

Fishhead was a hall of famer poster at mw way back

Fishhead was second in command back when the RX was big time

Fishhead was a klibe manager at the stardust for a while

Fishhead is the only poster to beat slots

Fishhead sold the most Cadillacs in Tampa 3 years ago

I think there is something to be said for believing what you see. Here's what I saw:

Fishhead was a forum moderator at theRX for years. And for years he was there every morning when I would be checking around for industry news. His information was often bad, slanted in favor of any book that would fly a banner there. He was considered by many to be among the biggest shills in the industry. I learned not to trust what he says.

So one thing we know is true is he spent years (fairly recently - like, in the 2000's) typing at a computer as a mod/shill. That's a fact. That's something people saw.

You don't want a team for what Fishead did. The less people the better.

I chose to mod for two years becuase I was at home at the time heavily involved with the offshore world anyway and I could kill more than two birds at one time .......and in the process add to my income and more importantly, help my fellow gambler/forum friends.

If it appeard to some that I was schilling any particular book, then you and others that thought that were sadly mistaken.


With thousands upon thousands of posters in forumville, some are always not going to believe your merits and/or standards...........I accept.

The facts are that I have personally met hundreds and hundreds firsthand and the vast majority know what I'm all about............and I'm proud to say that I've learned a great deal from them also and became friends with many, so it has been a win-win situation.

This alone makes the few detracters and the misinformed, such as yourself, basically ignorable.

yes, the characters involved would make for some stories. The play itself, not so much.

Mudcat is a credible witness and I accept his testimony over yours, I hereby find you guilty of being a shill for any books that would fly a banner where you were a moderator.

PS: Know any good sportsbooks? Any suggestion on where I should open a new account?
