Backing up - if $5000 cheque means $5000 chip - the table craps BJ Baccarat whatever is NOT going to even let you play that $5000 chip until you identify yourself and they attach that chip verifiably to your player account.

(¡snip!)

That is the context I understand.
"Check" is a paper financial instrument, drawn on a bank ("Pay to the order of", sign on the reverse),
"Cheque" is a casino issued redeemable gambling chip (without ridges).

There are enough words, meanings, and spellings that sound alike in this context to be obnoxiously confusing. Confound that with the usual term on the player side of the table being "casino chip" rather than "cheque", and wacky fun ensues.

Yes exactly what I mean, sorry for any confusion. "Cheques play" is yelled all the time at the blackjack table and that's usually the game I'm talking about when I have to hide my identity. Poker players are more likely to call them chips.

Also relevant are calls like "foreign cheque", "cheque change 5000", or "cheque down". There may be others, but they don't come to mind.

As for poker players, tournament chips are not cheques.
May the cards fall in your favor.

I hear that pretty much only when it’s “to the limit” at the high end casinos I play at. Actually you don’t even hear the “checks play” as much as just “to the limit.” At someplace like TI, which ceased to be high end once MGM sold it, a dealer will still say “checks play” and turn to look at the pit boss over just a couple grand.

+$124.5K. I resisted the urge to try to win it all back.

Been on a good roll. Even when I lost that quarter mill, and the dealer was quiet, obviously disappointed that I had lost, I just shrugged and walked away smiling. I told the dealer that Look, I've been doing okay lately I've been winning, "So don't cry for me, Argentina." (so to speak).

What we DON'T want though is too many repetitions of that sort of thing.

It took a bit of effort to get to around +100K and kept spilling as I approached it including all the way back to even twice. But a final 50K hand made everything right.

It was like…money from home. One of the other reserve players saw my run and came over to shake my hand and comment on how that was “like a dream.”

Largest bet of the session was $90K, which I lost.

Vegas Knights bested again by MN Wild. Early lead 3 to 0 and Knights could not recover.



Hope they do better tonight against the Ed Oilers!

You should have had them fly you to Buffalo to see the epic 8 -7 Sabres Victory over the Tampa Bay Lightning
Five fights as well. First game in over 35 years with 15 goals and over 100 penalty minutes.

Two sessions:

-$250K Didn’t take long!

+$253K Did take a bit of time.

Was going to just eat some of the loss when I was up +185K on the second session but a loss for the day turned out to be unnecessary.

Two separate casinos involved will get a loss rebate on the first session because it was separated enough in time from the last time I won there. (Not same day - yes I have quite a nice series of deals in place.)

Two sessions:

-$250K

-$250K

I got so used to not just winning, but being able to win back a big loss in a second session, but this time - I got double slammed. I actually did win back 130K in the second session and probably should have walked then, leaving just a -120K for the day, but then lost three big hands to end the second session down -250K same as the first.

Still, I'm soothing myself by thinking that I'm still way ahead for the trip, which has been an extended one, but I wanted to keep moving up and never backwards.

When this sort of thing happens I tend to take a break.

Didn’t take much of a break.

Just goes to prove that partial comebacks are good too and if I’d stopped the second session where I lost -$250K at a half recovery I’d be UP now between these two days. But I wanted it ALL back at once.

Exact repeat except…I got down a half mill before making the comeback.

I was up about +120K when I took a major spill downwards losing like -600K then recovered mightily. Heart thumping action.

+$126K

Coming back from a session loss works. Until it doesn’t.

I feel like Mikey in Swingers - losing big at one table but winning something small at another.

Looking back over your first adventures thread, it's remarkable how the scale of your daily swings has ballooned.
We used to read of daily gains or losses in the low thousands or even hundreds.

Are you conscious of the huge change in scale? Does it bother you at all? Don't you consider a $750k loss a bit of a tilt?
Even with an advantage, one's bankroll can get slaughtered by a bad run of luck.
Psalm 25:16 Turn to me and be gracious to me, for I am lonely and afflicted. Proverbs 18:2 A fool finds no satisfaction in trying to understand, for he would rather express his own opinion.

Definitely true that I resumed play 6 or so years ago with the intention of simply playing for comps and that my average bet has ballooned exponentially.

If I lost a million first day of a trip I’d be hurting for sure but fortunately the losses have come towards the end of this trip and been eclipsed by the wins. Still it does prove that no matter what advantage (or run of luck) if pushing hard a big loss is inevitable.

Maybe what’s more interesting than losing a lot in a session is that it doesn’t bother me all that much I just think about “well I still won a lot in the last month.” If it bothered me a lot I’d think that I need to win it all back and go back to the max win level for this trip and instead I mostly gave up and resumed lower level play. Lower level than the recent sessions where I won or lost a lot I mean.

I actually am taking a break right now was playing every day for a while there.

Just saw the new Season of Legends promo on Player City... is it actually worth the grind?

I played the last Evoplay campaign and it was decent, but this one has a €512,000 prize pool which sounds kind of insane. I joined yesterday just to check it out and didn’t expect to actually enjoy the games this much lol.

Has anyone here actually hit one of those €1,000 daily Infinity Prize Drops yet? I’m lowkey hooked already but I want to know if the rewards are as good as they look. If it's anything like their last one it should be solid. cutt ly/QtUTwgaX
