If I remember right Bucktooth didn't like Fatboy's game (flip a coin) and wouldn't play it.
But Fatboy didn't like Bucktooth's game either (Keno or something) and refused to play that too.
This was all in the same moment.
Am I remembering this wrong?
i wont play on the keno board, i watched them for 10 minutes, Cliff, Tooth and 2 other guys. They were rolling it by hand, it was a new board as Tooth promised-it was NOT a gaff, it was legit.
Here is why Tooth is the BIG favorite: the rolls will even themself out over time like flipping a coin, but you have to land on the board to stay in the game, if you roll the ball to hard or soft and go off the board the incomming guy just has to land on the board to win. or vice-versa if the first guy stays on the board and you go last and roll off you lose, Cliff was all over the place, he would come short, go long as in over the rail onto the floor. Tooth rarely went off the board and if he did it may have been because he wanted to. I could probably land on the board 75% of the time with an hours practice. Tooth can land on the board probably 95% of the time, so i'm giving up 20% because I cant stay on the board?, now using a cue would even it out a little.
Tooth only wanted to roll the ball by hand, But bare handed it takes some practice to get on the board, I watched Cliff who is a awesome player. But he was over the place trying to get the ball to land in ANY number. This is why its a good game that looks fair but is a game of skill, if you can get on the board 97/100 and Tooth gets on 99/100 your gonna hate it-like the games in a casino 2%-6% edge is all you need to do real good.
Tooth had 3 guys and himself rolling so every 33 games he had 100 rolls against his 33 with a 10% edge because he can play it and I watched him stay on the board thats BIG.
It looks like 3 card Monte, but the reality is if it was an even game why was he so fired up to get as many people rolling as possible? Tooth is smart.
Perhaps this might be considered knocking his action, I look at it like this. I'm just explaining how anyone can have a big edge in this game. now if I had a board and practice then sure there might be a game, but I dont, I had a quarter and someone to flip it that was my game that night.
you know the old saying "Never gamble at another man's game"
I remember someone here once said I was a weak B player hobbiest, I'm glad that some people look me like that, and for Tooth I hope he gets alot of people to play keno with him. We all got a angle, dont we?
