WOW!!! What if it had worked? can you imagine the implications of finally beating a negative expectation game? I wonder if the "hood 3000" system would stand up to the challenge?

my system can not stand up to that computer set up test, for one

I change games and i set limits. The whole thing most people make mistakes is they dont get up when they losing. Also who is going to play millions hands in one sessions

I totally agree. No 'system' can beat the house in such a setup. As stated it is a negative expectation game but that does not mean it can't be beat

I would be willing to take the challenge using my original deposit only, never losing a dime and never putting in any more money than I started with, but it would take some time and need to be setup for the way I play, not one session. I would also request that what I do, not be posted anywhere or detailed on the website. I bet the Wiz would sh his pants and wonder how he never figured it out.

If I was offered 10:1 odds on something I considered a sure thing ... I'd take that bet in a heartbeat.

Hell, if I was offered 1:10 odds ... I'd do it too.

I'm sure the wiz would be more than willing to accomodate all reasonable requests regarding the test setup.

Well I did not know about until it was posted here. I will look into it.

What did he say? Did he get back to you?

I second the comment that I'm sure Michael would accept any reasonable parametres other than the overall hand total, since variance must be removed from the occasion.

There would be no difficulty accomodating these conditions. "Whenever the BR hits point X, I do Y..." etc. Just ask him.

Why aren't you two biting his hand off on this one? This is money in the bank for you. 10 to 1 are superb odds on a sure bet.
