I've been winning alot lately. Started out with $220 on April 18th, and now I'm requesting my 4th payout ($1,000) and still have $550 left in acct.

I've never won this much in this short time before, so now I'm starting to second guess my picks, because I know I'm going to start a losing streak sometime... FUCK, maybe I should start fading myself, I don't know, now I'm getting gun shy on placing bets.

Today's Leans: Padres ML and OVER 8 DET/Minn

This happened to me in Reno once. I was unemployed, told my wife to reroute her trip from Michigan to Reno instead of SFO. I had $500 in UE, and just could not lose. It was unreal. Last straw was a crap table. Wanted to play, but because of a whiteout blizzard, crap table people not there (this was also a reason we had to turn around and come back to Reno). So I played the High Limit slot machines. Wheel Of Fortune. Three spins in, jackpot! $1195! Because if you win $1200 or more, you have to fill out a W-G form, which wipes out 33% of your take.......

Tell the wife, I couldn't get a table she goes "I'm sorry, honey" and then I tell her. I told her, you get a shower, I'll count the money. Ten Grand. We go to breakfast, I couldn't eat a damn thing. Barely could get down a glass of milk. My stomach was just in knots. I tell her, I have to play once last time. Play blackjack. Lost $750 in 20 minutes, and never felt better! All the pain in my stomach went away! ONLY time that has ever happened..................GL

You went from shitting your pants about an upcoming losing streak being around the corner to you bitching that you should be parlaying and winning more.

My over/under for your acct balance to be a big fat ZERO is 2 weeks.

98% of them have NOT had that feeling, because it takes a very disciplined gambler who isn't betting for the rush but to win money who thinks that way.  That's a great way to think.  When you're up keep doing what you're doing, but if anything bet fewer games... don't increase the value of the bets, simply cutting down the # will make those bets more significant and will make you a winner by the end of the week.

Seems I get more nervous when winning at a BJ table..especially after getting up 3 times my buy-in..Maybe I play too conservative waiting for the bad run of cards,but I have learned enough finally to walk away with a profit when you can.

My best BJ story (At a Table),I had just got into Vegas and put $50 on a side of a Dallas/NYG exhibition game.Got settled into room and was losing the bet by halftime.Said that's a loser and headed down to get a beer and watch the 2nd half disaster at the Rio book.

 I pass a $25 BJ table and since I had 15 minutes to kill,wtf play a couple hands and try to get the $50 back..Only one other seat was playing(two guys splitting it). The cards I was dealt were incredible,no decisions to be made,or definite splits/doubles.No pushes or getting beat by dealer drawing 21's to beat my 18's19's20's..unreal..I don't know how many hands went by before I had to hit my 77 vs dealer high card and I pop another 7...even the dealer was pretty amazed at the streak..I scared myself away from the table as soon as I lost 2 in a row.Cashed out about 8 times buy-in including losing last two hands and dealer tip.By the time I got to the book,my bet had covered also,but I had that feeling it probably did after what just happened..

Quit now while you're still ahead and in the future you can brag to your grand kids that you were a winner when you gambled...lol
