best day at a casino ever. headin home in the mornin w/$4,326. Lucky bastard. I'm only up $350 from betting on the games last night. At least that covers the cost of the fuel pump. Now all I gotta do is make $150 to cover the cost of some assjack dropping my iphone and cracking the fucking screen -------------------- ![]() ![]() |

i bet it still works though, doesn't it? Still works, the crack goes from the bottom silver edge to the bottom button, so I don't think it'll continue to mushroom and spread. Just pisses me the fuck off. Someone else dropped it, before that someone spilled whisky on my roommate's laptop, before that some cunt threw her softball at my house and fucked up the siding Of course all three I'll have to pay for. I'm sick of paying for other peoples' indiscretions and screwups -------------------- ![]() ![]() |

Awesome man. Congrats on the amazing return! Thanks! It was mostly dumb luck but hell I'll take it. Was up $300 from blackjack friday night. Went saturday night and dropped $300 pretty quick, so just went walkin around for a while to slow it down. Sat a a wheel of fortune $1 slot (only slot I'll play), popped in $100, 30 mins later pulled $400 out. Figured cool, back up some but it's gettin a little late and my buddy had to get up early, so I went for my traditional "take $100 to the high limit slots before we leave" run. They had a $5 wheel of fortune slot so I hopped on that one, and it just kept payin and payin. I'd say, ok I'll stop if I drop back to $1000, and it'd get up over $2000 so now I'll stop at that, etc etc, finally it dropped back to $4000 on me so I quit. For those who have played that wheel of fortune slot and know what I'm talking about, I got to spin about 20 times in a span of about 30-40 mins. This is awesome bc I need new tires but now it may be new wheels and tires Couldn't resist taking a "will style" photo:

Big screen tv, the best porterhouse in town, new system for your truck, whatever. Very few times in your life will you effectively be handed $3500 of tax free cash. If you have any concept of budgeting and money management (which I'm sure you do) this is basically "mad" money. It won't hurt you no matter what you blow it on. Treat yourself Money should be spent in the same way it was earned. If you bust your ass from 8-5 every day your paycheck should go to necessities, then luxuries. If you go to Vegas for a weekend and luck in to $10k of winnings, blow that shit on coke and broads -------------------- ![]() ![]() |

Congratulations! haha it feels good doesn't it? My dad and I walk out like ballers some times. We get police escort and all. Although, we usually go gambling with one of his friends that takes a shit load of money with him and brings even more back.
But Congratulations! Blackjack is a sonofabitch sometimes. I hate that roller coaster. |

Congrats
Never stepped foot in a casino personally -------------------- A psychotic world we live in. The madmen are in power. How long have we known this? Faced this? And--how many of us do know it? Perhaps if you know you are insane then you are not insane. Or you are becoming sane, finally. Waking up. I suppose only a few are aware of all this. Isolated persons here and there. But the broad masses... what do they think? All these hundreds of thousands in this city, here. Do they imagine that they live in a sane world? Or do they guess, glimpse, the truth...?

But Congratulations! Blackjack is a sonofabitch sometimes. I hate that roller coaster. My buddy and I bet blackjack pretty big, otherwise it's boring IMHO. And usually we'll throw down a large bet just before we leave, and saturday night after I'd won that money I cashed it in and went to play blackjack some more with him, we got to our last bet and here's how it went down: Table min was $25. I threw down $200 (last $200 I had in chips, was playin blacks), he threw down $150. Dealer deals me 5,6, deals him 9s. Dealer shows a 6. Friggin ideal time to double/split. So we both had to go diggin in our pockets for money to double/split with. another dude at the table doubled his $100 bet. I think the lowest bet on the table was $75. She deals me a 10 so I made 21 hallelujah. Deals my buddy to a 19 & 16 or something. dealer turns over a motherf'n FIVE, whole table had a collective "holy shit", then a 3, then a face. whole table went nuts. talk about rollercoaster |

How come everyone I know that goes to Vegas (or some other casino in your case) comes back with winnings, but supposedly the odds are against you?
