What are some of your longest loosing streaks? Some people have a bad long loosing streak because they are too greedy. What is the longest losing streak you have ever had, that you weren't EVER up $100 even. I have learned to walk out of the casino $50+ ahead. In the past 10 times or so, I was up $58 only after about to walk out of the casino $79 down, I hit $120 or whatever and walked out. The only time I was ahead $100 or more in the last 10 times was when I used $20 free play and hit $120 on one of my spins. I play max on 2 coin $1 wheel slots. My perfered slot is Super Times pay Double 4x 5x 6x. Just yesterday It took $80 on one machine just to get my first hit which was a 3x for 6 credits. From Jan 1st until February something I was up around $4000 as I hit $900, $960, $1200 and $1440 on the machines and other things without much of a loss at all. Now I am closing in probably going down $2000 from that in these 10 or more losses. I mean how hard is it to get ahead just that much or I shouldn't use the card because my card shows them that once I am up $100 I am out. I am so sick of losing I threw my card at the machine and left it on the ground. Out of about $500 total going through the machine yesterday, my best hit was $30 and then $20. Most of the time I go in lose $120-$150 and never get over a 10 credit hit on max bet.

My longest losing streak was the "entire month of May". I think I lost about $20k.

Around the 250 to 400 hour mark I gave up all of my profit of 25k and went slightly nto the red. 150 hours or more of losing, have to check the exact hours maybe it was 200 hours of losing. This was blackjack. Then the next 400 hours I made 42k. Now I'm down 5300 in Vegas after roughly 40 hours. Not easy.
Any private business open to the PUBLIC (ie. droned out casinos) cannot have a criminal trespass enforced against an individual without GOOD CAUSE (Disruptive or Disorderly conduct). You will never go to prison for being thrown out of a casino for legal advantage play and then returning because it's simply unconstitutional 'as applied' to the individual. 'As applied' constitutional issues must FIRST be raised in DISTRICT COURT (trial court) to have it thrown out. You CANNOT raise it on APPEAL This is the best kept secret in the world of casinos not just in Vegas but everywhere in the country. Thank me later.

Three losing streaks of $25K-30K. One lasted 3 months.
----
Largest game-specific losing streak (rather than overall) is -$41K for 4+ months (Still trying to dig out of it...)
----
Longest game-specific losing streak was BJ for about 5 years (2007-2012 I think).
Lowered my stakes until I clawed my way out of the losing streak.
Went from $500 top bet (England, 4-deck BJ, 240 pounds) down to $5-25 red...

I don't have a hand count, but I didn't play much in that 5 year period.
Sometimes I'd go to Vegas for 1-4 weeks, but then I might not play for 6 months.

I remember vividly the day the losing streak started, but I've lost track of exactly which year I got killed on the 4-deck BJ (2006 or 2007, leaning towards 2007).

"England, 4-deck BJ, 240 pounds" - In London, not in Vegas...

~300 hours, blackjack, still in the red at the end of those hours (I think it was actually just over 300 hours)... literally NEVER ahead one dime during those hours.
Playing it correctly means you've already won.

I don't feel so bad now. I have gone back 3 more times. Down $30 something, $50, then went again tonight when I lost $50 and won $50 back and broke even. Still not $100 up. That is after putting $500 through the machine today, best hit was $50 and that is when I walked out tonight. This is becoming a mission, get $100 ahead on a $1 slot. It cant be all that hard.
