Are you a Republican?

His big Adam Schiff reveal turned out to be photos taken from a gay porn site. A reverse image search debunked it in 10 minutes. Go to Twitter and look up Jack Burkman for the lulz.

Now imagine she’s white.

What’s the punishment for not having a sense of humor?

At what?

Quid Pro Go is better in my opinion.

And Jaylen Waddle is transferring to Texas any day now. Btw, what the fuck is a War Tiger?

You are making it overly complicated. Jones winning was like Haley’s comet. Trump idiotically supported a pedophile and still lost by less than 2%. End of story. Any other R will win in Alabama. ANY OTHER REPUBLICAN. Jesus people. Jones’s impeachment vote means nothing. Democrats aren’t winning that Bama seat. Move on.

Because he’s a Democrat. In Alabama. Glad I could help. *And the Republicans won’t nominate a pedophile again.

Also, I’ve decided I don’t want Adeleye at Texas. Anybody who voluntarily spends time with a Harvdog sibling has irredeemably bad judgment.

Could your analogies be more long winded in the future? Thanx.

The Presbyterian Church is too hardcore!

HRSchen, let it go. Everybody hears lyrics wrong.

👍 No need to be defensive though. You produced bad numbers based on bad assumptions, it happens. But it needs to be cleared up. I’m not claiming invulnerability, but I could help so I did. No judgment on you.

No. But if you are going to predict 2020 popular vote we don’t need to reinvent the wheel. Just take 2016 results and adjust. Trump got 63M popular votes in 2016 and you have him getting 95M. L oh fucking L. A 32M increase. Horrible work. But electoral vote is the only thing that matters. 270 has done a good job and shows Democrats as a slight favorite. I agree with that.

Your math is shit. Not all of his 40% is hardcore Trump. Assuming 95% of the 40% vote is way off and skews the rest of your work. I appreciate your work but the people at 270 have done it. And done it much better.

I don’t like the way 270 lists combinations. They list 5 states and NE2 as up for grabs. That’s 64 combinations. But 270 lists Democrats as only having 7 combinations, Republicans 4 combinations and 2 ties. But in reality the Democrats have 48 combinations, Republicans have 14 combinations and 2 tie combinations. That’s because Florida is listed as 1 combination for the Ds because Florida is enough alone to get 270. But Florida should be 32 combinations. Meanwhile the Republican combinations look like FL, PA, NC, AZ. That 1 combination is really 4 combinations. The simplest D path requires 1 state, the simplest R path requires 4 states. D 48 R 14 Tie 2 should be the combination total.

Follow up request: NorthLoop can you let Blacklab know your criteria of who can discuss strategy on his board? I’m sure he’s just waiting for your expertise with baited breath. Since you are the expert on board management I’m sure he will instantly make you a mod. Thanks in advance sir.

Northloop, the entire purpose of this message board is to discuss how people play games, coach games, and manage strategies. Now usually that is discussing football. But what is so different about picking games? Are we so sensitive that we can’t discuss strategy? I never said anything personal. But is there something sacred about this picking game that makes it above reproach? Are you that sensitive?

And yet I’ve won money more recently than you. 🤷🏻‍♂️ Let’s try another tactic, what is wrong with my strategy of playing aggressively? If your problem is only with the messenger and not with the message, that isn’t a valid criticism. I mean imagine admitting you have bad strategy this year but refusing to get better because of who the messenger is. Sounds like something my wife would do.

Glad you asked. I’m not criticizing you or anybody’s results - except your results to jab you a bit. I’m criticizing your strategy, which was conservative and horrible. And again, I concede that others are better at making picks and have won more money than me. But my strategy for assigning points and switching picks at the right time is very good. The key concept here is strategy NOT results. Your strategy is bad. So bad that you haven’t even tried to defend it. I’m all ears to hear what is great about your conservative strategy though.

“Tossing Hail Marys to get back in it” is MORE strategy than NorthLoop did. And more strategy than a lot of pool participants did. The next step is using a spreadsheet to track your expected finish and adjust accordingly before it’s too late.

Northloop, you are so confused. There is natural talent and strategy. Moneymaker, Ivey and every above average player agree on basic strategy. Ivey just has a lot more talent at reading players and individual hands. Applied to this contest, talent is knowing who will win individual games. Strategy is allocating points and knowing when to take risks. BigO, Skipper and others have more talent than me at picking individual games. But we all use the same aggressive strategy(except BigO one time). When we are “behind” we make aggressive picks. You picked like 2 underdogs. That’s not aggressive enough. You will almost never win that way. I can’t tell you what underdogs to pick, but you need to pick some underdogs. Especially since you can adjust mid contest. When you are behind. There is no debating that is the best strategy. BTW, Ivey and others pay people that you have never heard of thousands of dollars for technical advice. A lot of those advisors barely play poker but are math and strategy experts. It doesn’t matter that they aren’t great players, they are great at determining the optimal poker tournament strategies.
