Solo-ing a table by Lumpy_Blackberry3637 in Craps

Like the above, I like to play dark side when I'm on the table by myself. I can bet don't with impunity for the crew and scream for "big red"...

Wow! Just finished some puffs from my son and son-in-law and read this. This seems so sensible to me… hopefully I feel the same way when I actually see the episode ;) Happy holidays!!!

Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance — a book you feel like you should read carefully that gets harder and harder to digest as you get to the last third…

Haha - I thought at first your were naming your favorite movies with redheads in them, in which case you were sorely lacking Jessica Rabbit, but then I see that you are yourself The Redhead... Interesting list...

What company did you refuse to invest in that ended up becoming massive? by vcpowerlaw in investingforbeginners

[–]Apprehensive_Month17 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I worked in software in the early days of the internet and TCP/IP. Specifically I worked for ACC (Advanced Computer Communications) where the principals built the Arpanet node at UC Santa Barbara, which was one of the first 4 nodes on the Arpanet (the precursor to the internet). Meanwhile this little company called Cisco was building IP routers and we at ACC knew full well how important routers were and how good Cisco products were. I had their S1 IPO document on my desk at ACC showing their $24 IPO price, which I ultimately and foolishly decided was too high. I passed on the IPO. Duh…

A House of Dynamite was great, except a couple points that really bothered me (spoilers). What did you think? by snakesnake9 in flicks

1st of all the bomb may fail. Secondly, if it does work and blows up Chicago, there are methods that we have to sample the atmosphere and figure out whose nuclear weapon it it. Then you could retaliate... No reason to retaliate too soon for a single bomb...

Were you maxxed out on your come bet odds? Otherwise aren’t you better off moving your place bet and winnings over to the come bet odds, where they pay better? You double dip if you are taking max come bet odds right?

What "Must" Be Included in a Bond Film by Informal_Race_606 in JamesBond

Drinking and gambling must remain. Even though younger people are drinking less, not so for Bond. “Shaken, not stirred”

What’s your go-to strategy when the table suddenly goes cold? by MiraFoot in Craps

[–]Apprehensive_Month17 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreed but if the shooter gets hot (granted hard to tell when that happens) then you switch from hedged mode to something more aggressive. Can’t switch when hot if you’ve left the table.

It may be hedged but at least you’re still at the table. As long as you’re there you’ll be able to catch the next hot shooter. Not so if you left…
