trip report last night!

Post by stevel96a1 »

well after i played my free play went home a 200$ loser, in the end i ponder about why people gamble at negative games however before i do that i have to remember the world i live in. where you can turn on the ten o clock news and someone wins the darwin award every day in this country. played 8 hours and there was no 4 deuces there was no winning there was no staying at balance from your first buy in. 360$ on DW gone all gone 140$ on 8/5 jacks gone all gone so yea 500$ roll pissed away in a mere 8hours. but then i remember the comps Steve the mailers and the comp cash, if i dont get that back then why play gambling? is the hay day of Bob Dancers gone? luckily my wife pulled my eggs out of the frying pan and went home a winner still tho that was a brutal session. (this was 97% games) and if my memories serve me right 99.17 BP i can get ahead easily 500-600 credits sometimes more and keep that while continue gambling in atlantic city but 97% again the bp their is a slow and painful death. looking back at that 8hour session any tampering with the beting would have shaved off 4 hours to my destination to loser village all.
i am expecting the casinos to mail me good promotions but time will tell, and i rarely stay in casino passed 2am but i have to say it gets alot of activity in the 3-5am range i wonder if people just waltsing in or been there since 8? or both?

it was windcreek bethlehem and yes single line, they havent let me down in comps since they opened but well see this last trip shook me alittle, i did stick .25 machines but i did jump around alot, my wife said that helped cause me to lose well you would be suprised how long a 25$ buy in (on .25 demon) last on 97% machines. and have lost 1,000$ a single machine when comps were good, it did take all night but it can be done., theres just not enough juice as one player calls it on youtube to stay winning below 99% machines but anything 99% or higher you don't feel too bad if crap hits the fan.

all my time of testing getting ahead and keeping your winnings on 99%+ games is 100 x easier than on 97%
heck i couldn't win no more 100 credits with every buy in of 400 credits just seeing 500 and then splat like a plane being driven by a monkey i dont know how else to form that crazy math language with the E= your gonna lose your pants guaranteed, i can't speak for every 8hours of my gambling past but that was the taste last night..

Everything must be 99% plus. I must throw in the towel on my Tropicana AC gaming, even with interesting comps. They will bleed players dry. This is guaranteed. It was a fun session with nice Saturday afternoon ambience. But I can get that at a restaurant for half of my $41 loss and fill my stomach.

Isn't this the same guy who proclaimed that those DW games were his personal ATM? Looks like reality is finally setting in.

i dunno what happen, normally when i play 500$ through i normally get it back or win right away.
im not overly conecrned as long as the comps kick in next week or next trip i go.
i see why now resorts ac is stingy with their comps on 99% games cause you hardly lose much
compared to 97% games.

i think from now on in my future visits i will stick w/ 1 machine and play it through, it did seem to cripple my bankroll and weaken my odds of winning the 4 ducks by moving around.

problem is all their machines are like blackholes..
