Don't get mad at me because you made the mistake.
It's fun to pretend.

This nothingburger trip was comparable to my -$39 December 4 trip. Olds' comments:
7 quads and a straight flush one of which was the better paying low number on BP. Just reinforces how important Royals are in those games. Unless one hits and runs early on, the end result after hours of play is almost always negative. On quadless days, I have given up as much as 25 percent of coin in on JOB.

Faa, i realized what gambling is, and everyone goals each time they plan to go to the casino before hand.i see now what my little goals and big goals are each casino trip, simple stuff dont lose all your bank account money, have fun, try to leave a winner so i tally up my 6months of video poker play and ahead 1 royal and got some nice free play this thursday. i see now i can't quit my job from 1 royal and only going twice a month unless i played 25$ like Bob does and thats bare bones of pro gambling can barely squeek by in nyc with that income. i remember reading in roulette forum to win 5 grand bring 5 grand because if it were that easy everyone would walk in to the casino with a buck and walk out for 100 bucks more times than not and quit there krap jobs. no indeed to win 20k bring 20k like all casino games. i still dont know what kind of offers id get if i play at hard rock atlantic city but not losing and actually profiting this year so far is nice but not nice isn't my goal im at the point either quit gambling or go for the throat, go for all the marbles as one blackjack book quoted, the only reason i played so long crummy poker game at bethlehem due to comps but i wonder would it be same results at 99-99.54 games down town atlantic city? better worst or same? only you could answer that for me!

Fair Friday. I won my $25 Caesars table FP on a nine point hit. I won $19 on quarter JOB and gave back $15. Dining and walking. I tried more quarter; progressive at $1,030. I dumped it for dollar BP and hit a subpar quad. Machines were playable, but I left in a good mood. Net Day: +$87. 66 TCs.

Sedate Saturday. I lost my $25 Caesars table FP on a ten to craps. I won $20 on my $25 machine FP, then a subpar quad. I soon lost $50. Then a a max BP quad. Walk to Resorts and back. Unfortunately, I lost $33 on quarter JOB upon returning. Frustrated, I tried BP. Two more incidental quads. Net Day: -$62. 144 TCs.

Tepid Thursday evening. I won my $25 Caesars table FP on an eight point hit. I won the usual on $25 quarter JOB FP. I rode the dollar BP up and down. My quad took about two hours. The second, which I lost $21 chasing, took a half hour. Net Day: +$41. 196 TCs.

Not bad overall. I can’t remember what TCs are ? Just curious on craps. Do you put the 25 FP on the pass line or save some for odds? I’m guessing they require you to bet the entire 25 at once so that would kill a free odds backup unless you risked your own money.

Tier Credits. Craps is strictly a $25 PL. I like to start my day there. Losing enrages me into going overboard on VP. But tables get more crowded the later one waits, especially on Saturdays.
