| AcesAndEights Member since: Jan 5, 2012 Threads: 11 Posts: 584 | In March '11 I went on a crazy run of lu--- errr, positive variance, playing craps. I was in town to play an Ultimate tournament but arrived early and stayed late to have some gambling time (this was before I learned to count cards). My bankroll for the weekend-ish trip was $1000. I pretty much just started out winning and kept going. This is the one picture that I took of one of my winning sessions:  To be fair I bought in to the table for $1000 so I pretty much just doubled up. Only time in my life I've walked away from a table with a yellow chip though, which made me feel pretty impressive. "Life's a bitch and then you die. Or seven out." -AlanMendelson |

Wow. What'd you start with, if you had $50k in chips after a losing session? "So as the clock ticked and the day passed, opportunity met preparation, and luck happened." - Maurice Clarett |

| boymimbo Member since: Nov 12, 2009 Threads: 12 Posts: 2533 | $47,634 in chips, and McDonald's for breakfast??? ROTFL!!!! It reminds me in the last gambling scene in Owning Mahoney. After Maloney loses millions of dollars, they give him a plate of his favorite dish: ribs, no sauce. That's the gambling addict. No problem cashing in thousands and chips, but spend $5 at breakfast instead of $20 --- you're wasting money. My wife takes me to task every time I tell her to save a few bucks by not buying such and such, saying "look at what you waste at a casino". Touche. I just shut up now. -----

But how much does it cost to knock on wood? |
