+$1,124.00 - 2021. Actually; this is something to be somewhat proud of.

Sedate Sunday. Sports book day. I won my $25 Caesars table FP on a seven craps hit. Resorts walk to meet a former NFL star. Back at Caesars, I hit a max quad en route to $59 win on $25 FP. Net Day: +$52.

I guess the former NFL star doesn't merit a mention by name here?

Fair Friday. I lost my $25 Caesars table FP on an eight to craps. I won $33 on my $25 machine FP. It took an hour to hit my first quad. Coffee break and bump to dollar BP. It was turbulent and I had to pare back quad hand. I later hit a third quad. Water Dog lunch. I decided against a Borgata trip, given recent outcomes. Net Day: +$85. 86 TCs.

Sad Sunday. I lost my $30 Caesars machine FP and $70 more. Sunday morning continues to be the dead zone. A Resorts sports book day led to -$62 BP there. I recouped $7 on a Bucs win. Quick +$85 Caesars return session. I was too upset about the day to max bet on my quad. Net Day: -$80. 8 TCs.

Sedate Saturday. I lost my $25 Caesars table FP on a nine to craps. I won $7 on my $25 machine JOB FP, but soon hit a quad. Three quads in a half hour span in the noon hour. I had two more in the 1 PM hour, at which time I should have quit. The next half hour before my next quad was disastrous. I then chased losses. Then came my premium BP quad. Still way behind, I continued. My old pal Straight Flush paid me a long overdue visit to end my day. Net Day: -$39. 254 TCs.

I do the same chasing my tail many times. The old way of thinking….it has to come in. Unfortunately it doesn’t and the Casino is laughing all the way to its next round of Executive bonuses.

Was just ball parking your playing time at about 3 hours. In that time hitting 7 quads and a straight flush one of which was the better paying low number on BP. Just reinforces to me 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 without a Royal. On quadless days, I have given up as much as 25 percent of coin in on JOB. If I remember, and it has been a while, Bob Dancer has too.

I should have known that I was pushing my luck after a handful of quads in two hours flat. The next ninety minutes were pure damage control and cost me $154. I was reeling and desperate. Eight great hands and I could not even break even. It was mentally beneficial to reacquaint myself with a premium quad and SF. I left exhausted and frustrated despite a 99.8% session.
