Just leave out the personal attacks altogether. They aren't necessary to state your position. For example, you took two shots at me in this thread. Was that really necessary? Did it help you make your point? I don't think so.
That was hardly an attack. Merely a reminder that I have nothing to gain or lose from offering an opinion about QFIT's software, you sell it in your shop and you
do have something to gain from saying it's good. That's hardly a shot at you, just a reminder to the people here that you cannot be considered a neutral party, much as many of the other people QFIT listed can't be considered neutral parties either.
Just for the record, my income last year from selling blackjack books and software constituted less than 3% of my total income. It's hard to make much of an argument that I'm willing to mislead anyone for such a minor amount of money. My casino income alone dwarfs that, and my unrelated income is still the majority.
That's excellent, and all, and I'm sure the people here will definitely bear that in mind when evaluating your statements about QFIT's products and anything else. I made 0% of my income last year from selling blackjack books and software.
FWIW, I'm trying to apply the same standards on both sides of these discussions. If I overlook something that you feel I haven't handled appropriately, let me know.
No, but you should really try to think of my post about you as me having pointed out a fact that
could indicate a conflict of interest (and would in any official setting). Not an attack.
Just try to stick to the issues, not the personalities or motivations.
I do, but sometimes personalities and motivations become issues, especially when people force it to be that way.

We seem to be going downhill fast with this thread. ZenFan requested respectfully the inside scoop on card-steering and got a standard JohN May-esque reply. The multi-deck play advice was spotty at best...
What more detailed information do you think is required about card steering? The answer was given in the context of an easy advanced technique for a neophyte to use that is readily available in casinos. I have explained the technique; anyone with any sense can put it to use after he's practiced the technique sufficiently. It's not very hard to know where to send the cards, be it for your hand or for the dealer's hand. The trick is mastering consistenchy in the cut. John May espouses bogus nonsense like laying the cut card flat on the deck (in a shoe game) and then rotating it 90 degrees to cut it. That's absurd and won't actually work or get you the level of accuracy practicing with a kinesthetic awareness will. To equate me to him is probably the greatest insult you could hand out, and so I'll either have a sincere apology or be ignoring you from here on out.

There' nothing new about playing under the 'shade' of a bigger bettor, but even neophytes know that it doesn't work nearly as well as it did 15-years ago. Seriouly, this board isn't as backward as you've been making out.
How are you going to tell me this board isn't as backward as I'm making it out to be when you go and post a private message where a fellow posts in disbelief that the spreads I've talked about when playing under the shade are possible? How are you going to say this when he also makes the same error of equating a 1 - 2 x 30 spread to a 1 - 90 spread. I think the majority of the people here just aren't aware of how effective tactics like this are, and they are quick to dismiss them as implausible. Not so, and that is some of the most valuable advice you're going to get out of me: learn to see past your assumptions and the disinformation you've been fed by the authorities.
I for one am very greatful that you are here, assuming that you are authentic, and if you are authentic, then this forum will greatly improve. Waiting. zg
It already has improved.

Yes, I can't wait to hear how and why to use KO for shuffle tracking. Sounds fascinating- what IRC do you use?
Try reading my post again. I don't advocate KO for shuffle tracking. I advocate Hi/Lo Lite for shuffle tracking. That said, I don't advocate shuffle tracking to anyone who hasn't reached professional level abilities. It's not a technique for junior leaguers; all the neophyte will manage to do with tracking is bust out.
