Disasters Whilst Drunk?

**nafanny29** · 25th April 2006, 12:01 AM

Well ill start off by confessing that I lost $300 on a crypto poker site and couldnt remember a single hand in the morning.

Oh yeah and �900 a couple of years ago on William Hill casino.

Any other confessions guys/gals.

why the casinos in las vegas give endless free beer and cocktails...

for me i can say, my wagers are much higher when i had some beers. i'm not really drunken, but the willingness to go for higher risks is given.

Dropped 1K at Sportsbook.com playing BJ in about 5 minutes.....lost 10-12 hands in a row and I was stupid enough to keep pressing my bets.

Was up 2.5k and started betting $90/spin on T/Struck, I think it was about 7 mins. What a hangover!!

I saw the title to this thread, and thought you guys had unearthed some hidden video of me.

Good topic by the way Nafanny, not sure if I'll own up or not. Have to think about it.

If there's one out there, I get first dibs on a copy.

As far as GWI (gambling while intoxicated), I've come home from a night out a few times and dropped maybe $50 into Intercasino for a whirl.

It's even funnier when the only hazy memory I can pull out of the mental cobwebs is me and my buddy both squinting at the computer screen trying to make out what cards were there ... and why I had six cards instead of the normally dealt two.

Oh, yeah, I was seeing three of each of my cards ... at least I didn't split the 10's like my buddy was yelling at me to do.

Worst I've even done is $7.5K or there abouts at a land based. Fortunately $7K was the casino's money, unfortunately I'd won that in the previous hours. I just accepted too many free drinks which makes me feel 10 foot tall and bullet proof. Least to say each time I feel like a land based punt I never go, I've still got a bad taste in my mouth from that night 7 years ago.

I don't think I've ever drank much while playing (B&M or on my home computer), but I have played AFTER a bender. At least for me, statistically, not good.

a) I generally don't remember too much the next day... except something about losing all my credit.

b) While playing (despite not really remembering what was dealt/what was spun), I'm probably just trying to keep my eyes from closing, and my body from falling off my desk chair (I've had more success with my balance than my game-play

).

c) I find that if the reels are spinning and not hitting on something like "Thunderstruck", I find that the session can be hypnotic. Which isn't true, because it just means that I'm going under... (glub, glub, glub, grrrglll...)

cue shit-faced man falling-off chair, to the ground, which will be his bed for the next 10 hours...

On the flip-side, after a losing session while being intoxicated, I go straight to bed and don't ponder the losing session (until the following day... that is

).

I'll admit that I probably (generally) make higher bets (crazy ones at that), which could go either way. It just hasn't worked.
