Marriage is the happiest day of your

They say the two happiest days of a boat owners life are the day he buys the boat and the day he sells the boat. I think it works the same way with marriage
Quote: Gabes22I think it works the same way with marriage
They say it about everything. Kid born, kid
leaving. Vacay cottage bought, vacay
cottage sold. Time share bought, and, well,
you'll never be able to sell it, so maybe
buying it is the happiest and saddest day
all at once.

But don't forgot about the 2 passes to a crappy buffet and a crappy show that you got !
I've been to some. It helps if you have an IQ above 70 to cut through the bs presentation and pressure.
Quote: BozHave a Great Weekend Ace and keep up the start! The weather is incredible and the city should be busy. Assuming your at GN?
Yeah weather should hold up
I'm thinking positively and keeping my fingers crossed for a nice turnaround from Vegas
Quote: aceofspadeskeeping my fingers crossed
Does that work? Lets make this a case study.
You're case number 1.
mean bad news.
Quote: EvenBobNothing from Ace in over 4 hours. This could
mean bad news.
It could be, but it so happens to coincide with dinner time. I think that is at least an hour and a half of the 4.
It would be rude to leave so I will not be playing for another 30-40 minutes
Only won 4 hands the rest were pushes or losses
yet.

If it flies, floats, or f***s, it's always cheaper to rent it.
Quote: IbeatyouracesNot my rules. Someone got an official warning for typing "$h!t" but used an "s" and "i" instead of "$" and "!"
I'm not too worried about it.

Me either. Just trying to be helpful :-)
P.S. We mainly just don't want this site littered with cuss words such that they come up on Google searches, that sort of thing.
Quote: Mission146Will you guys please quit saying or quoting f***!? I'm getting tired of deleting all of these posts...since they are all just f*** or discussion of saying f***. Just use some f***ing asterisks, it's not the end of the f***ing world.
Calm the F down :-)~
since 10pm and it's 1:30..
Of course, I was cursing that dagnabbit wine tasting dinner as keeping me from the tables but I, of course, realize it is one big shoe and playing or not playing at certain times is meaningless, but, I needed something to curse in the moment...
So, there I sat and played and played and played...slowly making a comeback
A few chips here and a few chips there each shoe, it gradually got better and better until I was 200 away from once again being up 2k --- alas, per the usual, I lost a double down then the next few hands and was once again back to even
I played and played some more and finally, after about another hour, had regained 1900 of the 2k I was winning and had lost back
I was dealt a blackjack and was up 2050
Tipped the dealer and now the trip is once again +2k (actually 2025)

Next hand he refused to double ace 5 against a 6 he would've made 21 and so would have I
Instead was an 800 swing for me losing
Did you offer to take his double on the A-5v6? He's not going to hit again unless he gets another A.Quote: aceofspadesGuy just refused to double ace 7 v 5 he would've had a 3 then I would've had 21

You could have offered to take his double on the A-7 but he probably wouldn't have let you. He probably thinks soft 18 is a "good" hand.
What the F is wrong with people?!?
Trip -500 bc of this mofo

This helps prove a point I've made a few times before. There are just as many stupid players in high limit as on the main floor. Higher limits don't mean better informed players.

Exactly right - dealer asked if he wanted to double and he responded with "Why?"
Quote: aceofspadesEver since that guy made those bad plays I'm down 5k
That's your goal, only in reverse. Stomp
that guys instep, nobody will blame you.

You came back from a deficit twice this big in Vegas, you can do this!

If a "hug" isn't in the cards, then it isn't in the cards.

Your host will explain to security that
just lost more than he makes in 3
months and he'll leave you alone.
Now you have to drive home in that
state of mind? I hope not..

$5k? 3 months pay for a union job in NJ? There's a reason these casinos are failing, you know...
Down 20k including Vegas
Sorry to hear that you lost. Wish you better luck next trip.
In Vegas, at least you had some fun (I suppose).
In AC, what you got?

Your late. He had a $7000+ downswing.

So what's the loss just for AC today?
Quote: EvenBobSo what's the loss just for AC today?
4k so overall loss for year is 18k (but, I was up 2k at one point)
Just had dinner with my pops so apparently we are not leaving tonight as he is in a slot tournament
Banks are closed
Cash advance here I come

Talking to the Nugget's credit department might be a lot cheaper than a cash advance.

Going to the room and watching TV might
be cheaper than both. You aren't getting
thousands in a cash advance, just enough
for a few hands probably. That's called
gambling, the casino will nod knowingly
in your direction.

Very true - excellent idea
