bitillions 4 #1 Posted December 18, 2018 Finally got a new vehicle the other day, so I drove down to the casino straight from the dealership. I had a $100 bill on me, so I started with that. Lost it at the Blackjack table after about 23 hands. So I go to the ATM, withdraw another $260. I plunk the $200 back on, and win my $100 back in about 14 hands. I walk away from the table. The girl at the cashout window flirts with me a little, asks to see some ID, says I look too young to be here. I have a full beard. She just wants to see if I'm from out of town or not. I am. I think about pursuing this, but don't. I go to the Roullette table and break even for a solid hour, eventually leaving with about $8 to the good from there. Looking back I don't remember where I lost $200. Might have been on a slot machine. I went to the blackjack table yet again and won a bit more. If I had only played blackjack and left while ahead, I think I would have doubled my money that night. Hopefully one day I'll learn. Or just show up when the casino is closer to closing. 1 1 MrNice23 and bigbrankx reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Br1 22 #2 Posted December 21, 2018 that is the case most of the time when people lose on gambling, they think they can always win more but it will only make them lose more Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MrNice23 446 #3 Posted December 21, 2018 Most of gamblers want to recover or win more , this is why we do it. The big problem for us gamblers is to learn to stop and control our greed and addiction that our worst enemies... 1 EpicGord reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DreamStage 144 #10 Posted January 1, 2019 That's what you should be doing concerning gambling experiences. Just drop out while you can, unless you have the balance and guts to take it all in (till the end). Eventually the House will take you down with it (Probabilistics trendings) you can't avoid it as you will it those red chances. It is pure fact and has been told over and over again everywhere. You can't change mathematics fate Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
