You "know" huh? I'm sure. Nevertheless, the media is reporting that he won millions by playing poker slots.

Slots are a terrible gamble anyway. The only chance you have honestly, is with Blackjack and that's if you play perfectly and count cards. You up your odds from like losing 50 cents on every hundred dollars with perfect Basic Strategy to winning $1 for every hundred wagered if you play perfect Basic and have a viable up and down variance and an accurate count-all legal in Nevada but still will get you banned by the Casino if you're caught. Casino's love card counters.


The chance you have to honestly make money is poker.

There ain't no way someone is going to gamble 14 hrs a day, 365 days a year on a "modest fortune."

Nope!

Especially a fortune in real estate...unless he sold all his real estate off and was gambling away all the cash the IRS didn't take...

He wouldn't be making much monthly fortunes just owning a couple properties.

I don't believe someone with a couple million $$ has enough to gamble every day for years.

Unless you know you're planning to stick a gun in your mouth, and leave the show early.

I read somewhere that George Soros (very liberal Clinton/Obama supporter) shorted MGM stock the day before the shooting and made $42 million dollars.

http://www.bing.com/news/search?q=G...e+soros+shorting+MGM+stock&FORM=EWRE

Was this a paid assassin? Why, because Soros doesn't want anyone but the government to have guns, so they can ultimately control the people.

This shooting is a lot worse than I thought.
Not only 59 dead and hundreds wounded but thousands of Americans have gone bat chit crazy.
Talk about collateral damage.

All this dudes life he's been 'brain whipped' by his old man! Old man was supposedly a bank robber...a bad ass! He left his ole lady with four kids and if the truth known...he beat the living schitt out of the kids and Ole Paddock has been mulling this over all his life! Been lying dormant a long time but finally it all came to the surface with the realization that he (Paddock) would 'show his ole man up' by killing a bunch of folks! The bastard was bored stiff; more $$$$$ than he could spend and he was tired of living! This was his way of.....hitting the big time!!

He didn't have his PPL(A) active since 2008, likely he aint been flyin' anywhere.

conspiracy types will suggest he used his rented hangar space as a gun running storage facility... whistle

You *can* win at video poker, if you know when to quit.

This loser, didn't.

That bein said, he was playin high return machines, 99.7%.

Outta 100,000 wagered, over time, he got a return of 99,700, losin $300.

Casino comps give ya back 3-4 hundred a day, at the inflated prices they charge.

Losin $300/hr x 14 hours = $4,200 day.

Dependin on how many millions and the return thereon, he's eatin inta principal, but don't care.

Money launderin theory is bullshit, small crook needs to, not the legit millionaire, if he was.

And, if he *was* gun runnin', he'd damn sure not hafta rely on a chump-fire stock to shoot fast.

Yea no way he was making millions on video poker without th knolage of the casino.....wether he was an arms dealer ? I doubt that...
If he was he wouldn't have used bump stocks . He would have had access to full auto....y would he care about the difference or the cost...he was about to commit a much worse crime...

.


.3% house edge, thats even better for players than blackjack, which is about .5%

Ive witnessed many baccarat players make a fortune against a house edge of 1 - 1.25%
but typically Ive also witnessed such hardcore fearless types poor it all back....at $50,000 +
per hand it don't tale long.. grin
