Losing mad money at the Casino unappreciation

[shake n bake718]

Are you seriously complaining about losing $100

For me that's considered winning when I go to the casino.

 

[kingtre]

ive been called a fiend on numerous occassions so i can weigh in

BUT as i tell everybody,
1st i never go with more than i care about...meaning extra money that woulda been spent on nonsense anyway...i leave all credit/debit cards at home miles andmiles away

2nd its fun to me...im not chasing some dream of hitting 1million on a .05 cent slot machine...i go because its fun....winning is a bonus and of course i wouldlove to hit that mil but its not like im crying on the way home b/c i lost everything

and to the threadstarter seriously if $100 is a big deal, unless the casino is like across the street from your house its a wasted trip...its all relative butid say my biggest single bet losses were when i had 2-300 ON the crap table on a couple different rolls...or of course losing the buy ins at sit and gos but ichalk those up to experience building..

p.s. I just won my first tourney at foxwoods...cant wait to go back

Lol I was just on the east coast and we went up to Atlantic City while we were there.Anyways gambling with your loaded friends money is SO MUCH SWEETER thangamblin with your own hard earned cash.He gave me $300 to start with and that turned into $750 by the end of the night. All I did was play blackjack, which wasso nice and mellow. Some guy that was playin craps won like 50,000 even though I had no idea how to play that game.Can somebody give me the basics.

Just make sure you know your limits. Don't turn and l into an L, know when to say when.

know when to say when
Easier said than done.

I have a friend who run up his and his mother's credit card's (that she co-signed with him for) to almost $100,000. And, he's a hood dude meaningthat type of money is like millions of dollars from where I'm from. He has a gambling habit that is so out of control it's not even funny. Any moneyor chance he gets he's heading to Atlantic City to "hit it big one day".

Yo and I tell him like he could have had a CLS Benz or something and this dude just says "what can you do, it already happened can't turn backtime" and that was when he was only like $20,000 in the hole. Then I seen him back like 4-6 months later and this dude tells me he's $60,000 in thehole now. Hiding the credit card bills from his mother as soon as the mailman comes, but to bad he couldn't hide the phone because they were calling likea mother and I think that's when his mother found out.

Yo she, my friend's mother, didn't even get at him like that either. She was just disappointed that he hid it from her all this time and shecould/would have bought him a car. Son if my moms was to find out I lost/bamboozled her out of $50 she would have had my head for that sh.. I just told himto be grateful that his mother loves him that much.

Always stays in fresh jays, and he ain't even a sneaker head like that either. Then when we chilling or go out to chill with other friends (I hardly chilllike that anymore, just me and wifey) he always want to "eat like a king". Then when I tell him I can't afford to live that lifestyle that hedoes he says "it ain't my fault you paper ain't right"

. Then gets mad when I retaliate and say "your spoiled I actually have to work for mine".

Did I mention son is 30 years old too, still lives with his moms, and only had one job his whole life (security) and quit after six months to get unemployment.

craps is my game....50k? damn what were the table bets and how long was he playing? i go on runs and walk away with a couple k but damn 50?

best bet is too look up the basics online...go to a small table thats chill and the dealers help you along...theres way too many bets to try and learn em allb4 you play...the longer you play the more you'll learn...

oh and once you get the game down drink drink drink

when i 1st startsober i second guess myself alot and lose out...then after a couple shots im hitting all over the place

its a game of odds, luck and gut feeling...nothing better than putting 20 onthat double 6 crap bet and coming out with 30 to 1

Roulette/Black Jack are the tables I'm usually at........I'll only bring an amount of $$ that I'm comfortable with losing

, I will NEVER bringmy entire pay cheque or whatever........

I'm about to look up the basics of Craps, that's something I wanna learn........

Losing $100 is never a good feeling but I've seen my friends lose a lot more. Learn from this experience though. Unless you know what you are doing andfeel confident at a casino, they will always get you. All I can say is practice and good luck next time.
