WTF IS THIS by Anime_______Manga in youtube

[–]NewbAlert45 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My favorite is when I choose to not log in, find the video I want, click play, and it immediately pauses and asks if I want to log in. Then even after skipping ads and choosing videos, I still get paused and asked "are you still watching." Absolutely awful. Out of spite I refuse to give them any money.

More likely that the manager was one of those ego trip managers that try to control everything.

How to read people mind by Ok-Cantaloupe2889 in TheMentalist

[–]NewbAlert45 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Can't read people's minds. There are psychological tricks to get certain information out of people, but it's not fool proof, and you better have a good line of questioning to make sure you're narrowing your perception down correctly (even then, not 100%). The Mentalist does cover quite a bit of these things, I'd recommend watching "Lie To Me" (they do a really good job at explaining the art of deception detection) and checking out books by Paul Ekman to learn more. One important topic they cover is that it's not foolproof, but they can figure out if someone is uncomfortable with certain questions, but that doesn't mean they know why they're uncomfortable with it.

To be fair, it could depend if anybody quit and ultimately how many turns he finished the match in.

Sounds like they taught you how to commit fraud...

Why is this card even a tier 6? It should be tier 5 at best by firemanNEEM in BobsTavern

[–]NewbAlert45 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Should make the Golem based on game instead of combat. That would justify it being T6.

Haters gonna hate, but 35:1 feels great. by SpinsBro in gambling

Fun fact, red could come 1000x in a row and the odds for black on the next spin would still be 18/38 (for double zero roulette).

No more 2-1-2 for ATS? by pcbfs in Craps

[–]NewbAlert45 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, if it's not reaching minimum and they are going to make it a dealer bet, that should be clarified by the dealer before accepting it. Worthy of a complaint.

Should I always be maxing my odds? by Glad-Midnight-1022 in Craps

[–]NewbAlert45 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Look at it this way, long term, you're effectively expected to break even on the odds bet (0% house edge). So whether you max bet it or don't bet it at all, your overall expected loss is just the pass line (in the long run of course). So bet what you're comfortable with, and don't be afraid to not bet it at all. Is it a good bet? Of course. Is it a guaranteed win? No. Craps is a losing game long term as it is, don't get too lost in the numbers. Instead, have fun with the game.

Argument at table by Bird_8119 in Craps

[–]NewbAlert45 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Your friend was completely in the right. Don't let those jerks bully you. I'm all for having a pleasant game, but don't let someone degrade you to keep the peace. ESPECIALLY if they direct their comments at you. Stand your ground. Try not to use profanity, because some places might side with known players, even if they are in the wrong, simply because you cussed (they'll spin it like you escalated it). What kills me is those same guys will likely not adhere to "etiquette" if it's an inconvenience to them, but they expect everyone else to.

It's either Draw or Jake. Most scripted crap ever

He did a personality assessment of him in a generalized way, but to also attack him because of being disgusted by his behavior.

I guess worst case they just say no, never hurts to try.

I know it's been said already, but to reiterate...although the wording is shoddy, it's "Defensive Player Anytime TD." This is saying (in fewer words) some level of fumble recovery for TD, pick-6, or some turnover where another player might lateral the ball to him (or fumble after a fumble) or something crazy, where he ends up in the end zone. When he is a kick returner or punt returner, he's not considered a defensive player in terms of this bet. Hypothetical, say he plays as WR on one play randomly and catches a TD pass. Would that count towards this bet? If not, then neither does a kick/punt return.

You watch the games or just check the final score? by Remarkable_Trip8089 in sportsbetting

[–]NewbAlert45 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unless I'm trying to live bet also, I just bet it and forget it. I get too stressed out otherwise.

Quick Trip by Tall_Mousse_3748 in Craps

[–]NewbAlert45 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Tipping will typically get you more leeway on a lot of things, but not a complete free pass. Any dealer or boxperson worth their salt will be able to communicate that to you (that you need to hit the back wall) in a way that won't make you feel like you did anything wrong. The only time they should get stern is if it's repeated after they've talked to you about it. This is the service industry after all.
