Well, i managed to blow all my chips in the casino today, so back to grinding it out in the forum until i get my chips back up again. I dont know what it is about blackjack i always seem to do good then crash and burn perty quickly at this game. If i wasnt so freaking bored, i would probably quit after i did good for a bit, but there aint a whole lot to do out here in this lil bitty country town but fish, get drunk or get stoned. I dont drink or do any recreational drugs no more, so that leaves fishing and poker. Since the lake usually has its fair share of retards showing up too, I might as well try and make a few bucks here.

I do the same thing with the Black jack... I love it! I am good at it, I can play the game well but sometimes it's not the skill it is just the way the cards fall. Or rather the luck of the draw. What better to do?

I remember me playing caribbean Jackopt. Going nuts. Spended 386 dolars in one night that was sick, relly really sick. Like was possesed, was not me, I was shaking and everthing... relly sick. I could hade made so much money playing those 386$ tight and smart. Iven would be better to play 109 buy-in ofr 50k....
Sad story about my bankroll.

I agree- I avoid the casino as much as possible but when I do play I set a limit with myself and stick to Let It Ride. For example if I start out with 7900 chips I'll tell myself that if something goes wrong I'll quit when I hit 7750 or something like that. And if it goes well and I make a few hundred, I'll quit after a big win or two and not push it. Usually. lol.

Ah common Tay, you mean you don't bet it all? So self disciplined.

Hey it's taken me forever to be able to let myself bluff in poker, lol! I may get there someday, but I pretty much never bet more than 5 chips on a hand.

It is tough to swallow losing like that, but i just suck it up and keep going, I dont have any quit in me. I love playing blackjack, just gotta figure out how to stop doing something i love so much.
