Get ready for March degenning!

It's like Ace said in Casino when the high roller looked at it as losing when he was winning. I see it the same way most of the time. Play a $150 hand in blackjack and lose and then drop down to $25-50 and win. Grinds my gears

 

Did that shit Friday night...

$300 hand. Lose. $300 hand lose...

Fuck. Regroup. $25 hand. Blackjack

 

Haha same here a couple weeks ago over in Louisana. Or when the table hopper (the wonderful person who hope to every fucking table in the pit with $20) gets a blackjack or a sweet double hand.

Makes me feel like Pesci...

Yeah I'll play some green chip BJ with a buddy after finishing my real degenning. I've never hit a great streak but if I did and won a few hundred, I would definitely think about what could have been.

One time I played BJ by myself when Bacc wasn't going well. Just played with blacks, 6 deck, and didn't lose hardly a hand for the entire shoe. Walked away with 10k and just shook my head at what I should have done to them.

 

I have a 12 year old, and anything over 100 bucks too him is a shit ton of money. If we play BJ for money, He'll never bet more than a dollar or 2 without feeling uneasy. I have coached him about pressing to maximize a streak, but he will not do it, when he is risking his money.

Having said that when I pull out poker chips and give him 10k in chips, He is a pressing and a streaky good player.

My little sample study, makes me think that if we just play with proper instincts, and not sweat the money, we will succeed more.

It is funny how well we succeed when playing at lower denoms, and the adrenaline is under control.

 

I'm mainly a VP player so I just convinced them that a VP bar is a great spot to hang out, people watch, see the games, and drink. They can play at whatever level they want and I can play away at my speed/level while still being "part of the group."

 

I always go solo to LAS

Or just as bad, the guy who pulls a few wadded up twenties out of his pocket every other hand and takes forever to do it. At this point all I can do is channel my inner Al Swearingen.

This dude at the craps table last weekend kept buying in for $10 at a time for field bets. Oftentimes right as the stick was shoving the dice when I was shooting. I wanted to keep throwing no field fives so bad so he'd run out of money

 

Yeah, I get that. I usually don't root against players but I do when they are completely un self-aware and hold up the game due to their own ignorance/selfishness/stupidity. I once bought a round for the BJ table in the form of a nice tip when some a-hole, as described above, finally busted out and left. Those guys are the rare obnoxious players that actually make me think about getting up and leaving the table. Too frustrating to deal with that crap in Vegas. Hell I hate standing behind someone writing a check at the grocery store so maybe I have some impatience issues.........

 

OMG....I see that all the time. My other pet peeves is the guy that keeps sticking out his hand, oblivious that the dice are out. The dealer will continually tell him to keep his hands back. I'll try to throw the dice as hard as I can at his hand.
