Funny Bone | Want Does Not Mean Can

“I say I want, not necessary mean I can...”

This is the best way to say no without hurting others.
“I say I want to help, not necessary mean I can...”
“I say I want to date the Princess of GGC, not necessary mean I can...”
It is a good excuse for your shortcomings.

This quote originated from a member claiming he wants to quit gambling each time he loses. The irony was his losses were not catastrophic. Having said it too many times without taking the necessary action, he became the boy who cried wolf. Each time he said he wants to quit gambling, he will be ridicule by other members. Members finally call him the great pretender. Fed up of being labelled as the pretender he finally said, “I say I want, not necessary mean I can...”

The addiction of gambling is strong. You want to stop gambling but you may not have the will power to do it. You don't need huge losses to stop. You may just be tired of it after awhile but you just can't walk away from the table.

The best application for this is on the table. I want to make a twin towers with pineapple chips not necessary mean I can. Setting high goals is very destructive.

Funny Bone | Bad Habits Die Hard

Guerrilla Gamblers Club (GGC) is full of artists. This song is also suited for GGC's sub group the Quit Gambling Club (QGC).

GGC's version of Twins+Boy'z - 死性不改 (Bad Habits Die Hard)

再見了我的寵愛 誰願接受這種意外
Goodbye my love, nobody willing to accept this outcome
你讚我god of gamble 不願看著我離開
You said I am god of gamble, depressing to see me quit

Chorus
同伴也話我傻 喜歡受挫 寧願limbobo在傷我
Comrades say I'm stupid, welcome setback, and prefer to be hurt by limbobo again and again
人天生根本都不可以 愛死 genting casino
People, by nature, should not love genting casino
怎奈你最夠刺激我 凡事也win倒我
Amazing how you stimulate me but end up everything also can win me
幾多黑心的blackjack 我亦捱得過
The countless black hearted blackjack, I also can withstand
來banker 來player 就擊倒我麼
Banker comes, Player comes, can knock me down mer ?
誰landu不会insaf 死性我不想改
Show me a landu and you will see someone with no desire to repent, I do not want to change.
如我沒有你的GP 我沒法活得來
without your GP, I cannot survive
pineapple的存在 是我從來都志在
With the pineapple dangled in front of me, I have the spirit to fight on.
難在我输哂 pokai
It would be very difficult for me to lose all and pokai

我怕可一不可再 難道highland都有鬼?
I can’t help but wonder about the supernatural at Highland?
我確信dou shen不會錯 一铺输哂 ma chao hai
I believe "dou shen" cannot be wrong, lose all in one game just scream, “ma chao hai!!”

Repeat Chorus

Leave it to the creative talents at GGC to turn the theme from love to gambling. Gambling is after all our favorite pass time.

Funny Bone | Anytime But Now

“I can quit gambling anytime but not now.”

It can be applied to anything you want for example.
I can quit smoking anytime but not now.
I can quit whoring anytime but not now.


This quote originated from one of our gatherings. One of the members was very depressed. He talked about how miserable life had been to him then said “Seriously I can die anytime. You just tell me when you want me to die and I will die.” Everyone responded in unison, “Go and die, now”. The miserable member said, “of course now cannot”.

Hall of Fame | LockON

Using winnings from Genting, LockOn built enough capital to start his own business. He has an uncanny ability to get 80% accuracy in baccarat. Whenever LockON goes uphill members would make an effort to join him to follow his bets. After many requests LockON finally share his methods for baccarat.

My method if betting is quite simple. There are only two things I will go for - streak or d/d(ding dong). Mostly I go for streak. Before I bet I already plan 2-3 steps ahead what would I bet if what comes out. My capital is always 3k. If kana sapu by tiger I will leave. No more no less. Actually to win 7k-10k is not a hard thing for me lar but hard thing is running away with that amount. My tactics is always the same. Flat bet 200-300 per bet test power. If beginning got luck > martingale. If beginning give eaten > flat bet gain confidence. Like rm100 per bet until recover. Martingale is needed to push hard and fast when the luck comes. Don’t need martingale much just usually 3 steps then follow by flat betting is already more than enough. 300/600/1200 ---> 3 step martingale > > > follow by 500 per bet. IF streak goes pass 5-6 step = earnings = 300+600+1200 + 500 + 500 + 500 = 3600. But usually as per my experience the streak normally stop at 3 or 4. That is why my martingale is usually 2-3 step then will flat bet. Only use martingale when you are winning never use martingale when losing. From my experience when losing flat bet is needed to recover confidence and modale. I have so many times lose until rm 500 flat bet rm100 all the way to recover and eventually winning 5-7k. To maintain bankroll is important. Never ever think that your bank account still have money so I bet big even if lose I can take from bank or fast fast recover, i can say 9 out of 10 times money will fly. Maintain your initial bankroll even lose until rm 200 flat bet rm50 until recover. If lose all what else cabut lor

LockON made GGC’s Hall of Fame when he turned his usual 3k bankroll into 36k. Ever since then members call him Grandmaster LockON (GLO).

Hall of Fame | Unker LDC

Unker Ldc (facebook id) or LANduChai (lowyat forum id) made GGC’s hall of fame for building twin towers with black chips (one black chip has the value of RM100). He made two stacks of black chip that were both knee’s height. When asked to share his thoughts, he said,
當你已經決定運用一個數額目標來做起點,那麼你必須向著你的目標前進。請記住這一句筆墨真言 - “起初如何,今日依然,直到永遠”。

Translation:
"Once you have decided on a financial target as your starting point, then you must forge ahead toward the target. Always remember this saying, 'The manner of your start, the same way you will continue now and for ever'."

Initially Unker Ldc made only one stack in the toilet to take a picture of it. He was not able to do it as it keeps toppling over. He gave up trying when one chip fell in the toilet bowl. He tried to recover it but it was in vain. Then he constructed twin towers.

Newbie’s Hangout | Games to Play

With so many games in the casino, newbie had a hard time deciding which game to start with. Understanding house edge is the first place to start before deciding which game to play. House edge is like surcharged paid to the casino to play a game. Yes, it is not free of charge to play at casino. Games are design to collect this surcharge from you without you realizing. Casino can’t be rendering their services for free. They have overheads and payroll to look into.

Roulette
This game is highly recommended because it has the least house edge. For even money bets half the numbers are red and half the numbers are black. Zero is green. It is neither black nor red. This is the house edge. It is the small advantage the casino had over you. The same goes for betting on odds or even. Zero is neither odd nor even. Zero is neither for 1-18 (low/small) nor 19-36 (high/big).

It does not have to be complicated. Beginners should start with even money bets. Once you get the hang of it try the dozen or column bets. These bets pay double. When you are familiar go for the inside bets. Start with line bets and move your way to single bets. Check the roulette tutorial if you are loss. After hitting the inside bets you will know enough about this game to design your own system.

Baccarat
If you like cards games go for baccarat. Among all the card games, baccarat has the least house edge. If you look up the rules for baccarat you will know that banker has higher chances of winning. It is not 55% but you will be paid 95% if you win on a wager with banker. This is the little house edge that you pay. However it does not apply to wager on player. Player bets are even money. The 95% payout on banker is known as commission baccarat. In a non commission baccarat wagers on banker gets paid even money however if banker wins with a score of 6 only half of what was waged is paid.

Tai Sai
Tai Sai has the highest house edge for their even money bets. Outcome of dice will range from 3 - 18. “Wai Sek” is a situation where all three dice have the same number (111, 222, 333, 444, 555, 666). Should Wai Sek occurs even money bets are forfeited. Comparing with roulette, Tai Sai had a huge house edge. In roulette you have 37 numbers but only one number (0) that forfeits even money bets. Tai Sai has 6 outcomes that will kill even money bets. If you still want to play dice for variety go for the Single Dice Bet. Look for the last three items in the type of bet list in our Tai Sai Tutorial. They are the big pictures of dice from 1 to 6 at the bottom of the betting table. These bets had the least house edge in Tai Sai.

Newbie’s Hangout | Bet Size

How much should I bet per hand? This is the most common question from a newbie. The most common answer is, “bet a small amount just for fun to try out your luck”. The Guerrilla Gamblers Club (GGC) would not recommend it. In the Ways of the Guerrillas, we do not bet for fun and will refrain from luck testing bets.

Betting for fun will always remain as fun. You will not experience the problems associated with betting for extra pocket money to take home. If you have not acquired this experience, you will not look for ways to improve yourself. For this reason GGC is against betting for fun. It is a waste of time.

Luck testing bets is another time waster. Assume that all bets are even money bets as beginner usually starts with these bets. If you have average luck that day, you will end up with losses being greater than wins by a small margin. Even if losses were to exceed wins by one, it is still a net loss. With the best scenario for average luck, you get the same amount of wins and losses. It will still end up a loosing session because of house edge.

For GGC bet size is base on your income. Set aside a certain percentage of your income for gambling. It had to be an amount that will not affect your livelihood. It should not be too small that you derive no satisfaction when you have won money which you consider peanuts. Once this money is lost wait for the next paycheck and try again.

Your bet size will be determined by how many hands you intend to play. A simple division will give you the bet size per hand. If you do not know how many hands you wish to play, start with five. Adjust it with trail and error as you go along and you will know how many chances you need to make each session a winning session. If you win spend it. Unless you get rewarded you will not be motivated to gamble for extra pocket money.
