Worst blackjack losing streak?

I may regret this post later ( soon maybe ), but since the thread is active:

Practice game yesterday, lost $6100 in a single shoe, at a $10 table (1K max).
Not a record for this practice game, but still a miserable result.
The max bet, 1K, was appropriate 5 times (very unusual). Lost all 5. Also lost an intermediate bet of $450, doubled.
The only good news is that none of the 5 max bets were split and/or doubled for losses......
Hired the Japanese twins to deal, payed double for the opportunity to lose....
Sometimes the game sucks........

Cheers,
The 2F

So in your practice game you practice spreading $10 to $1,000? Not sure what you're practicing for as I don't think you'll ever be able to make those 2 bets in one shoe =P. Max bet $1k you could EASILY be up or down $10k.

You quoted me just so I couldn't delete that didn't you?
You MIGHT be a bad man....
$10 - $1000 spread? Do it regularly, although not regularly enough.
My closest casino is $15 - $1000, and you have to pay for drinks.
There's bastards in charge of North Carolina!

Hah, now I'm going to request a friend go with you and video you spreading $15-$1,000... and the following "No more blackjack" speech you receive =).

You missed something, all the casinos love me, I'm very lovable (at least by casinos)....;-(

And doubt you can get permission for that video. Hell, they want even let me take a pic of a big loss when I ask. I need to talk to my host, I should be able to take a pic of 'losing' a couple K on one hand at a red chip table.
So much of the world is just 'so wrong'....

Absolutely honestly...
Just practice game, first shoe of the day, just now, like 60 seconds ago it ended.
Won 9 hands in a row, odd.
Then lost 10 hands in a row, now more odd.
I know the numbers always work out in the long run.
Just damn weird to see them so predictable in the short run, just 20 hands...
Yes, won $10 on twentieth hand (pretend money).

A very long time ago - maybe a dozen years, I thought I was invincible in black jack. I had just cleared 680 bucks through 2 shoes at Treasure Bay Casino in Biloxi.

So, I thought - what the heck, pulled in at The Palace Casino on my way home, feeling like Superman. I played at my all time high at that time of $50 per hand.

I lost 8 hands straight and cried like a little girl on my way home. (well, I felt like crying like a little girl. But it did kind of remind me why it's called gambling. )
