Not saying it shows his ignorance, but I wouldn't be surprised if he feels like he has some sort of edge in craps. If he doesn't then he's just a massive degen, which is fine, but there is certainly no reason whatsoever for him to know about video poker, comp hustling, bonus whoring, and numerous other pieces of gambling minutiae he can't be bothered with. Not sure where exactly it came up that he uses a stop-loss anyway, but I assure you, he doesn't use one in general. The night he dropped 1.1M or w/e to Durrr, was the stop-loss at 1.5M? There is simply no chance that Ivey or Reese would EVER quit a huge fish strictly because of a stop-loss, end of story, unless that stop-loss was at a point where they have just used far too large a piece of their BR, which is BR management, not stop-loss.
Considering the people I'm "arguing" with, not so concerned about my credibility with them.
