Hey Larry,

Congratulations on getting number ONE, TWO and THREE of the new Frontier $200s just release.

I noticed that you have number three up on Jackpot Auction at a starting price of $350 with (reserve price not yet met) plus with a buy it now of $595.00.

Larry, I’m confused! Let me see, I recall a post you made on 1/29/04 concerning the Four Queens:

“I joined the Silver Strikers Chapter hoping the people I have met were representative of the organization - all good people from Out of State. Not so. The more I see, the more I believe everything associated with the Four Queens and Silver Strikers is strictly business for local business men with clout, and not for the real collector.
It all comes down to money, and making it for a small minority that appear to corner the market which certainly influences the prices.”

“Why did the rules change as Pete Ryan has asked? What are the rules for timely dissemination of timely information meant for all here to get that strike?”

And in your post dated 1/31/04:

“ As I said in a post you referenced, much of this methodology encourages plain old "greed". Always about money. I believe in having the $200 strikes available in the cage as the 20 $10 strikes are won.

“Limited insider information is biased and unfair/unethical to the Strike collector.”

“I have been here a year and have seen nothing like this. Do other casinos a problem with this? None I have been to”.

NOW Larry here is my problem:

Concerning the Four Queens you talked about rules, insider information, the way the distribution is handled and GREED.

Concerning the Frontier can you tell me what the Rules for the Dissemination of the Frontier’s $200s are and where the rules were published?

At the Frontier were the $200 strikes available in the cage as the 20 $10 strikes are won or were some people allowed to win the $10s before the $200 were available?

Did the people at the front of the line have insider information?

GREED !!! I’m not sure where to start on this one.

Concerning the Four Queens you insinuated that the people at the front of the line or those that got there first had insider information, which they kept to themselves due to GREED.

Did that same thing happen at the Frontier?

Concerning dealers and their 20 stooges I assume you are talking about Norm (I always get in trouble when I assume) I do not recall Norm ever having a current $200 with a buy it now over $359 and normally starting will below that with no reserve.

SO YOU TELL ME WHERE THE GREED IS AT.

Again, congratulation on getting #1, #2 and #3.
