Being Lucky

**mattysgirl** · 22nd May 2006, 03:24 PM

Ok,
I have been a bit lucky this week online and at landbased casinos. And I am rather funny as believing in signs (I know sounds funnny) For example went to the river boats on Friday night left with 31 $100 bills, started with $300, so not to bad, well on Sunday as going through my purse I found 2 $100 chips lol they must have missed the part of my purse i put them in.

Also as i chose to use my winnings in a good way pay off bills buy my kids a swimming pool ect.. get a new washer and dryer, well the washer and dryer I wanted sell for about $1100 each, went to Home Depot on Saturday morning rather funny that the night before they had just put that washer and dryer set on the floor because somone had changed there mind and took them back a week after buying them. Marked down to a little over $500 each with another 10% off. That there seemed to be some luck in it's self as I was only going to buy the washer and wait for the dryer.

So my question here is if you had all this happen to you would you think you may be on a nice lucky streak or have you had things happen to you that make you think to yourself, hmmmmm this may be the time to play?

When I was in London recently, I was heading to the Old Globe to see Shakespeare's Coriolanus when a Tube employee stopped me randomly and gave me a £10 ticket for that play and that night ... didn't charge me anything and said someone who couldn't use it had given it to him and told him to find someone who could use it.

I decided that it was my lucky night and hit the Gala casino later that night ... walked out £50 richer just in time to catch the last Tube train back to my hotel!

Other than that, I'm not superstitious.

My theory is that when you hit a piece of nice luck, you tend to try and hit a bit more than you would normally - and odds suggest you'll sometimes do well again! You don't often remember the times that, following the nice bit of luck - it all goes pear shaped

The one that sticks in my mind is the 3000 cashout from Roxy Palace off a $10 bonus.. Happy days!

I've flown over from the farthest reaches of the galaxy, because I can't pass this one up.

With the last name "Balls", that sounds like quite the proposal. I think that the poster above misread the title of the read. It reads "being" lucky, not trying to "get lucky".

Sorry, I'm going to go and hide behind Jupiter's moon now.

I defintely believe in luck! Last year during September and October it didn't matter what I did or where I played, I came out ahead. Both online and at the land based casino here in town. I'm a low roller and ended up being ahead around 4k for both months all totaled. A warning though - when it dies, it DIES.. hard and fast, and for me it is still yet to return even in spurts. I went from being the luckiest to the most unlucky. I didn't know when to quit and to a point, still don't. I keep thinking it's got to turn around eventually, lol.

as a great double bonus player once said to me:

"May the fours be with you."

Quick! Buy something with the money so it doesn't go back to them! Luck comes and goes. I for one don't want to think of how I won it all and lost it all. For me, if I double the money I put into it, then it's time to cashout and enjoy.
