    Yep...same here. I had that kicked in the nuts feeling reading when the dealer pulled the 21. Such an awful feeling when that happens

    Good job on the comeback and win. You can keep wearing the shirt but have housekeeping wash and press it for you!

    Haha! I have been blessed by the man himself! The only thing I know for sure is that I will be drinking heavily tonight and wandering back upstairs with an unknown amount. Hopefully I wake up tomorrow and find I have deposited $250k at the cage!

    My major in college (which was some time ago) was neuroscience and I've used this as an "anonymous" login for a while...I'd probably be able to answer any brain related questions you've been wanting to know. Hehe

    I'm more of a natedog type player, divided by 100 of course. Right side, with full odds, then across, and pressing about 25% of the place bet each time. Eg if I start with 120 on the six, it goes to 150 then 180 then 240 then 300 then 360 then 420 etc.

    I'll usually two way bet the hard ways or features for the dealers, which does pay off at least once a session when I forget to put full odds on a made point (" oh, he always plays full odds, pay him").

    I'm at 8 hours of play, $850 avg bet, and 1.5 hours of slot play, according to the identity desk. I didn't know they recorded how much time you sat at a slot machine. Weird.

    I think I saw you at the Blackjack tables. We need to hit the tables together once before we leave Vegas. Lets do it Friday. sometime in the late morning or afternoon.

    Hmmm I don't know if washing it right now is a good idea. Might be better to just keep spraying it with cologne and being "that guy" than washing off whatever good juju its bringing. That is an awesome comeback, especially the back-to-back All wins at craps.

    The slot play time is a worthless statistic. Total coin-in and it's associated theo is more important. I'm guessing that was the VP play? But the card does keep track of when you put your card in, obv.

    Nice hit on the all's! A much more player friendly bet that that money-sucking "Fire Bet". Keep it up!!!

    Nice work...played many sessions of dice but have never hit the all or fire bet. I was playing bj with my boss a few years back at the MGM and he had the same situation happen that you talked about with splitting/doubling 7-7. Although he was only betting $100 a hand he also lost all hands on a dealer 21. You've got me wishing my October visit was closer!

    I am the same way but my avg bet is about a third of that. I like the aggressive action because it can rack wins up with a quickness (and wipe ya out before you down a few drinks).

    Keep it up!
