    Please wait for a site operator to respond.
    You are now chatting with 'Mario'
    Mario: Hello. How may I assist you today?
    casino player: is Tony around?
    Mario: Can you please confirm your account number and password?
    casino player: i just need to talk to Tony
    Mario: Are you a customer? I need at least your name.
    casino player: My name is xxx
    casino player: Tony will want to talk to me I can assure you
    Mario: Let me check if he is available.
    casino player: ok thanks
    Mario: Let me transfer you.
    Please wait while I transfer the chat to 'Tony'.
    You are now chatting with 'Tony'
    Tony: greetings
    casino player: hi Tony
    Tony: how can I help you today?
    casino player: serious question for you concerning your casino
    Tony: sure, go ahead
    casino player: Do you guarantee that if I win that I will get paid my winnings 100%?
    Tony: no
    casino player: no?
    Tony: you asked a question, i answered it
    Tony: you don't even have an account number
    Tony: so i can't guarantee you anything
    casino player: so if I play in your casino and win say $4000 then I may or may not get paid?
    Tony: what game are you playing?
    casino player: why does that matter? Aren't all your games legit?
    Tony: all games are legit
    casino player: thats what i needed to hear
    Tony: you just looking for a post for a posting forum
    Tony: or do you have an account with us?
    casino player: I do
    Tony: what is your account number?
    casino player: Have you talked to Lou recently?
    Tony: lou was in touch with one of the other managers
    casino player: I tried to warn you through him that I believe I can beat one of your games. I just want to know that I will get paid if I do. I am a legit player
    Tony: i told him that if the game did have an 108% payout we'd give you $1000
    Tony: so you can choose to play, and we'll see if you make it to $1000
    casino player: so you know what i am referring to. That's good
    casino player: what do you mean by that?
    Tony: or you can tell me the game, and if i verify the game in its current state is paying 108%
    Tony: well, i'll be watching
    casino player: didn't you already verify your own payouts?
    Tony: as i've been watching all the casino games with a fine toothed comb since the prior incidents
    Tony: obviously a mistake was made, or you wouldn't be here
    casino player: so then you are convinced every game is good then?
    Tony: or, you're the one who calculated wrong
    Tony: not as much as i was this morning
    casino player: I am just trying to save us both a headache.
    Tony: well, the other side of the headache is you being wrong
    Tony: and losing
    Tony: and i don't want any doubt
    casino player: that is true
    Tony: so if you tell me the game, i can go over my math
    casino player: but if i win, do i get paid?
    Tony: and you can tell me how yours differs
    Tony: and one of us can learn something
    casino player: Maybe I just feel lucky?
    Tony: maybe you've got nothing at all
    Tony: i don't know
    casino player: All I want to know is that if i play the game legitimately then will i get paid legitimately?
    Tony: i'd prefer giving you $1000 if you're correct about a game being out of line
    Tony: rather than you playing and there being a "headache"
    Tony: but rest assured, winnings will be honored
    casino player: that's all I needed to hear
    casino player: Thank you for taking the time to talk to me
    Tony: so you're fishing, or you have a game to go over?
    Tony: as if you calculated something at 108%
    Tony: i'm sure someone else would have found it by now
    casino player: You think so?
    Tony: so i'd rather show you that your math is wrong
    Tony: than have you go in and lose
    casino player: I am usually that "somebody"
    Tony: "yes", i think so
    Tony: judging from your play history, you're not that "somebody"
    casino player: I have been doing this for a long time
    Tony: so have i
    casino player: so you have my play history?
    Tony: that i do
    casino player: and how did you get that?
    Tony: maybe i do, maybe i don't
    Tony: now i'm playing the same game you're playing
    casino player: so my play history will tell you that I am legit, no?
    Tony: you tell me your account number, and then we'll know
    casino player: I wouldn't waste my time with this if I was going to tell you everything. $1000 is not going to cut it
    Tony: then you take your best shot, and i'll be watching
    casino player: I even offered to look over all your payouts for you a few weeks ago
    Tony: when did that happen?
    Tony: never spoke to me about it
    casino player: I asked that you get the message from Lou
    casino player: not sure if you did or not
    Tony: when you want to talk to me
    Tony: you talk to me
    Tony: i didn't know Lou was my secretary
    casino player: lol
    casino player: me either
    casino player: but evidentally he gets messages to you or you would not even know what I am talking about
    Tony: doesn't make him a secretary
    Tony: next time you want to tell me "something"
    Tony: best way is to tell me
    casino player: no, it makes him a messenger, hence the reason I gave him the message. get it?
    Tony: no, i don't
    casino player: I have a long history with advantage play. I am just trying to cover my bases
    Tony: nice to hear
    Tony: tell you what i'll do for you
    casino player: And it looks like I am covered here.
    Tony: i'll put a rule in right now
    casino player: ok
    casino player: what rule
    Tony: "Any game paying over 107% by perfect play will not have any play honored that wins or loses"
    Tony: now are my bases covered?
    casino player: If you want to look like a fool, then by all means post that rule
    Tony: i already look like a fool
    Tony: and AM one for making mistakes on the payouts
    Tony: what more could this hurt?
    casino player: not going to debate that. You have had a rough month
    casino player: so instead of trying to discover your error (if it even is one) you would rather post a silly rule that you void payouts when they exceed 107%
    Tony: i have no idea how to "discover" it
    Tony: other than monitor play
    Tony: and wait for you to "make your move"
    Tony: unless you have some other plan?
    casino player: Have you run your payouts through calculators?
    Tony: no, i use a donkey and a monkey to hit a button repeatedly
    casino player: Can I ask you if this is a trap?
    Tony: you really think i'm putting up games that pay more than 101% on purpose?
    casino player: i would hope not
    Tony: and i want all the exposure for doing so
    casino player: but it has happened 3 times now
    Tony: you hope?
    Tony: 3 times?
    casino player: yes
    Tony: i'm only aware of 2 games
    casino player: This would make the third
    Tony: one that was wrong
    Tony: then you tell me what i should do
    casino player: maybe hire someone who knows what they are doing with casino games?
    Tony: i do
    Tony: i think i did a great job designing all the games
    Tony: i made a mistake on one
    casino player: do you set the payouts yourself personally?
    Tony: and we have no idea how the inital issue happened
    Tony: as those payouts are not listed on my calculations
    casino player: designing the games? you are a programmer for the software company?
    Tony: so all passwords for casino access were changed
    Tony: i design all the tables for the payouts of every game we have in all the casinos we have
    Tony: i am not a programmer, though i run a team of them for this company
    casino player: so then if there is a mistake, then essentially you are to blame?
    Tony: and mathematics of payouts had nothing to do with programming
    Tony: the mistake with the level payout aces and eights was an entry error of the payouts
    Tony: as the internet showed the correct paytable
    Tony: it was the game itself that had payouts listed for JJ QQ KK AA
    Tony: as well as 3 of a kind, that should have had payouts of zero
    casino player: so by designing the games, you mean that you click the little boxes that enable you to change the payout from 1000 coins to 800 coins for example?
    Tony: that was my mistake personally
    Tony: i can change any payable of any game
    Tony: but entering those payouts on the system
    casino player: of course, but is that really "designing" the game itself?
    Tony: who's to say a game should pay 95%
    Tony: when i can change payouts and make it 99%
    casino player: understood. It is nice to have that flexibility in the software. But to claim you design the game is a bit far fetched, no?
    Tony: i design the revised payouts
    Tony: if i mis-spoke, that is what i meant
    Tony: i designed the rebates in the rebate casino
    casino player: yeah that is a wee bit different than claiming to design the game itself
    casino player: glad we got that straightened out
    casino player: I am not here to be a hardass, really
    Tony: i am the designer of the paytables of MY games
    Tony: that work better for you?
    Tony: yes, you are here to be a hardass
    Tony: lets not mistake that
    casino player: I just wanted to confirm that you are good for it if I happen to win on one of your casino games
    Tony: only games that are designed to pay over 100% are the progressive slot machines
    Tony: and the two video poker games we run on promos
    Tony: personally, i think you're just here to shake a tree, and you've found nothing
    Tony: but you managed to get me to talk for quite a bit about nothing, so that makes you a winner
    casino player: Well I will throw you a bone here
    Tony: pavlov's dog is here salivating
    casino player: I will not do anything at all until at least next Tuesday. Feel free to revise your payouts from now until then. After that I will proceed with my intentions. I can only hope you do not choose to disable my account and/or stiff me on any payout
    Tony: if you found something, you can be rest assured your account will be disabled
    Tony: but you've found nothing
    casino player: how will you know i am not just winning? Dont you ever have any winners?
    Tony: or you would have already tested your thoery
    Tony: 108% isn't hard to spot
    casino player: that would be dumb. you and I both know that
    Tony: you've got nothing
    casino player: We shall see
    casino player: good day, Sir. Thank for taking time out to talk to me
    Tony: thanks for your help

    casino player: how will you know i am not just winning? Dont you ever have any winners?

    WVU: Frankly I'd take the $1000 and tell him. It's likely the most you're going to get. Clearly he's just going to check the play records on any decent sized casino balance increases.

    robertg: I've found Tony reasonable on the few occasions I have spoken too him. If you go into a situation amicably and without trying to get one over he's fine. He's just been caricatured by the forum.

    agreed. At least I got him to admit that he didn't actually "design" the games.

    The free $1000 might of been the better option compared to Tony making a new rule of "Any game paying over 107% by perfect play will not have any play honored that wins or loses". He's probable adding in that new rule right now.

    .

    I thought about it for about 10 seconds. Then I decided that either I would get stiffed on the $1000 or my account will be disabled or both. At least I have all this on record that I gave a strong effort towards warning him beforehand.

    This is not something he will catch easily. He has a week.

    if 5 dimes makes an error and has a game at +108 and they don't realize that. if i go and play the game and lose 300 dollars, and I also don't know it's a +108 game, how will 5 dimes not "honor" my loss, if neither of us know the payout is set at +108 by mistake?

    You could likely work that out beforehand, and if he reneges he'll take the reputation hit you're looking for. If he doesn't, you get $1k.

    From your wording I guess it's related to a bonus/double-up type situation. Unless you have a current reason to be otherwise, adversarial relationships have been less profitable for me than cordial ones -- just my two cents.

    WVU, truthfully did you giggle at all during any portion of that chat? Just from reading it, I had a few good laughs from things you both said.

    I actually think you should talk to him privately about helping him out if you're still interested in that idea. Not sure if you would be but his response to you about it gave me the impression at least that he'd be open to it.

    Shari, I actually enjoyed that conversation with Tony and yes I did chuckle along the way. He seemed human and wasn't opposed to admitting he makes mistakes. There was a hint of his "asshole" personality, but I would be disappointed if I didn't get to witness that. I tried to be as codial as possible, but I also have a bit of "asshole" in me as you can probably ascertain.

    I get that you wanted assurance to a +EV score but this conversation and the subsequent posting does not seem very helpful for your cause and I agree with Santo on this one. You seem like a bright guy and your posts are usually substantial but it appears that you are more concerned about winning a battle of wits with Tony then actually insuring your success.

    You and Santo are correct. I enjoy a battle of wits. How would you have gone about this? $1000 is not a score IMO. Beating them for 5 figures is a score. My chances of collecting on a win like this at this shop are better than before I started this thread. Wouldn't you agree?

    Maybe Tony figures this out and maybe he doesn't. Maybe he covers his ass with that absurd statement of not paying out if PA > 7%. Either way, I have lost nothing but time spent finding an advantage.

    Santo always knows what's up. He has for as long as I have known him on these forums.

    That's pretty good info. In case there was any question, online casino games can be adjusted to any setting.

    Without knowing the allowed bets or specifics of your find, it seems that the time you would have to put in it and risked funds would be worth attempting to go on your run. I am also assuming that the casino audits will be more frequent now than ever, making it more difficult for a sustained run. I think you come off looking more like a master if you collect the k for no time commitment and reveal the wizard behind the payout table calculations was wrong. It does appear that it is not a straight up +EV payout so that would invalidate Tony's offer anyhow.

    i think you need to take the 1k

    you already showed part of your hand and i don't see how you can get anymore out of it.

    i know you are a smart guy but if you really felt no risk was involved where taking the 1k right now is not worth it i would have never made this thread to begin with.

    just like the 12.5% edge it had huge swings

    This really does tell the tale. Any casino game can be voided at any time for incorrect pay table. What's to keep him from voiding a nice winning streak on a 99% payout game, then saying "It should have been 97%".

    this is all nonsense!

    why not just hit a little at a time and keep cashing out? this way when they do catch on, you have a lot of their money already.

    when you make large requests for withdrawals, it will raise some eyebrows!

    Tony called your bluff and you had nothing. He offered $1,000, but no games had mistakes. There was no game with 8.3% player edge when you began this post. Nothing else will come of this bs thread.

    WVU has a lot more credibility than you think. He is not bluffing and he gave the forums a heads-up way before posting here.. If he was bluffing he would of taken the easy 1K don't you think? He can make a lot more on this glitch than the 1K. Of course getting paid by Tony is the hard part, glitch or bot, as Tony does whatever the hell he wants as far as paying anyone. What a great industry this is. The books can just change the rules as they go along and after the fact.

    Wow
    I must say WVU you are one very impressive man. Leaps and bounds ahead of the minutia (sp) here.
    Would I love to talk to you, any chance you play chess?

    You ever wonder how so many can be so sadly dumb.. Thoughts and strategies that appear to you so effortlessly must intrigue you equally that so many 'little brains' (allusion from great movie 'defending your life' w/Albert Brooks ) just are in a different stadium playing a child's game and here you are, doing what you are so gifted with, ability and smarts to be real 'Advatage Player'.
