Surely "juliack" should have something to post here, unless he is a family member of Hoffman?

I knew you was a roller, but Now you got me wondering... that time you spent a month playing blackjack in vegas... did you come out ahead. (if you don't mind me asking - totally
if you think I'm being nosey)
Seeins as how I've got this gambling bug, I'm kinda glad I'm not too well-heeled... my overall losses would be extrapolate.
This is another good balance to the Winners screenshots thread... SW mentioned there was another one recently too.

In April/May 2005, I went way up(much larger than you see in my post), then back to even after 24 days, was leaving in a few days when I went on another major run and The Venetian pulled the rogue crap and 86'ed me. You and I corresponded about this rogue behavior many months ago in a thread where I even posted an article from the LVRJ that iirc even surprised you that B & M's can be so rogue. I was fortunate to get out of the casino with the chips I had as they are rogue enough to confiscate them illegally and it would take about 5 years(at least in Nevada) of hell to fight them legally. So yes on this trip I won......................That being said, simply put I have lost on similar trips and in the long run gamblers like myself lose,end of story..........I prefer to win as most but most importantly I will never put myself in a position where my well-being is at risk............If ever necessary I will quit gambling in a minute and never look back. Consider this nothing more than words as that is what it is for most.Fer cry sakes Nash
I just reread through this thread and one of the point's I made in my prior post is that in the long run gambler's like myself will lose. I have worked hard at improving discipline and money management over the years but still need to improve. What most do not realize is the house not only has you mathematically but psychologically which to me is even a bigger advantage for the house. I will not go into the sublimal but will say this as Gaahl correctly alludes to, THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS PLAYING WITH THE HOUSE'S MONEY. Unfortunately, myself included, 99.9% think there is something defined as the house's money. We are 100% wrong and I am comfortable saying the house's pyschological advantage far exceeds its mathematical advantage.Hello lojo
My point is. If you have won money up to 7900$, you own those 7900$ and could cash them out. Therefor if you loose the 7900$ you loose 7900$ of your own money.
Im not here to raise a fight tho, I see your point. I just didnt agree to your statement.

I can't believe anyone would find your post offensive Nash! Mine on the other hand are usually another story! Damn! You're a whale in my book Nash! A $75,000.00 Neteller balance?? WoW!!!

Anyone who actually sent you an email criticising your Neteller screenshot must be one greedy, miserable person if it bothered them so much! Sad!!
Imagine that
Tim,
You should remember b4 you left, the crap I took for posting $45/spin,$3000 win or so (for an example) screenshots, and then the being told it was not 100 times,,,,,if you remember, you with only a select few others supported the screenshots and told the critics so which I appreciated but I did eventually stop posting screenshots after enough of that crap...........just thought their logic was ridiculous(and still do) in wanting to see a $50 screenshot (for example) @ least 100*bet but a $4000 win @ less than 100*bet was unacceptable and required assinine comments. The culprits still do it so now we both understand the sad

Yeah.. I remember! Those screenies were nice! I always start out with low bets, but after awhile I have to raise them somewhat in order to keep interested. How some people can grind out 20 and 40 cent spins all day long day after day is beyond me. I guess those people are the lucky ones because it stays affordable that way.
The psych of it
When I'm bux-up lifetime overall again - coming soon to a screenie near you - and I make a deposit and I am bux-up on that deposit... I will be playing with 'their' money. That's my psych, not what they want me to think... because what I do with some of that money is throw large (and seldom if ever dip back into my original bankroll) sometimes you win sometimes you lose, but it gives me the chance, for 'free', to make max bets (for any given coin size) that I would rarely do with my own sweat-garnered cash.
It's all about management; risk and money. All you have to do is add zeros to the end of a bet or session and its all the same as far as the game goes... the experience, well that's something else
I tried doing the .20 .40 all session long betting and it bored the piss out of me. I've also thrown a light week's deposit in a spin or two.
Hard earned cash: I never bet more than I can stand to lose.
"Their" money: I set ever changing plateaus and limits, and unless I hit too quick for too little, usually make it my money.

Wrong!!!!!!!! If being honest, nice, sympathetic and letting people know when they are wrong is bad, then whoever had a problem with you is the one in need of help. You are not at all like tim and me, and maybe lojo, who seem to have the inate ability to piss people off.
You are one of the reasons why I still visit this forum.
Luv ya,

Did I just get slammed in there somewhere?Liz! Where's the love we once shared?
I'll never forget the times when our bodies were intertwined as one and the sunlight danced on your lovely breasts while you screamed out my name in ecstacy! * and then I woke up!
C'mon Liz! Show a brother some love!

When are you going to put me in your Sig again?
right now my love
Certainly a bunch of different personalities: Tim will just let in and tear a new a-hole if he thinks someone is full of sh*t and needs to lose some. Liz just tells it like it is with the occasional 'boo effing hoo if you don't like it' thrown in
I tell people to stfu (sometimes spelled out) if they annoy me (what an a-hole) and probably piss off certain affiliates and definitely bonus sluts with my sober opinions.... but Nash? Humble, straight forward, but certainly no nonsense on serious matters...Dammit Pina, look what you've created
My biggest loss in one evening since January was the respect of some members before I learned how to avoid getting another PUI ticket

The common bond lojo is the fact that all of us in our own way tell it like it is, which is why we all share a bond with each other.

Thanks so much Liz for the kind words,very meaningful and appreciated
...............however, you may be selling my innate ability to piss others off very short.............luv ya anyway and you are also one of the reasons__________ Thanks L J and like you I love to get crazy and have a good time but you are very perceptive on how I react sometimes on serious matters.Kudos!.....................It is not Pina's fault... but Nash? Humble, straight forward, but certainly no nonsense on serious matters...
Dammit Pina, look what you've created

been there , saw that and its really a disgusting sight. i went with friends back in the early 80s when i lived in san diego and they were my ride back. its a sick thing to watch, well when i didnt have my eyes closed. ....laurieit is time to stop the talk and walk the walk, tell me when and where, be there!
I think no one would get to TJ as you would miss your lay(way too often)over in Vegas and just have to be stuck there. However, you prolly could find an underground tunnel and walk to TJ if you want
...............only the wacky will be needed from TJ

lol, well my 22.5k was all in cold deposits unfortunately. I lost most in 3x5k hands at BJ at will hill. I'm not saying It's rigged, but i did get very unlucky when betting that big (like I got 21v6 and pushed).
On the plus side, it was basically all the profit that I had made in one year. And to be fair I was getting a bit cocky, so I think I had it coming. When I lost a bit I'd martingale sometimes, and had always won. On this occasion, I'd got a slots bonus, ended up about $10 up or so, but pressed on and decided to quit when i next hit the bonus round. It didn't happen, and as i pushed bets up, i lost about $2k. So i quit and decided to make it back in BJ. That didn't happen either.
So.... I lost everything that I made in just over a year's careful play. So it was all profit (well I was net -2k). And I think I learned a ""valuable"" lesson. Hmm!
It was obviously pretty rubbish, but it doesn't keep me awake at night or anything, partly cus I lost something that wasn't mine really, partly cus I think I had it coming to me anyway, and partly cus I didn't NEED that money really (tho would have been nice!). I learnt my lesson.....
And now I'm over +4k in profit again
But Will Hill didn't make me a VIP or anything, and I only got a lousy 25 quid back in comps, and that was it

Won slowly and lost fast on Boss media blackjack
Hi, yesterday was my darkest evening ever and I don't know how I can emotionally recover from that. Last weekend I joined German Casino Club which had a generous bonus and single deck blackjack with a slight player advantage (+0.15%). I deposited only 25 and got 100% bonus. I won very quickly on blackjack and roulette and had a balance of 700. I decided to withdraw it all but was only able to withdraw 500 because for higher amounts they will send verification code by regular mail which takes one week to arrive.
So I withdrew 500 and had 200 left on my balance to wait for the verification letter by mail. However, while waiting for that mail I decided to play with my remaining 200 a little bit. I played single deck blackjack with small (1 - 5 ) bets and stopped as soon as I gained 25 over my starting balance that session, that is 200 -> 225 -> 250 ->. Then I did something else and returned to repeat the same process the following day. Using this method I slowly and patiently increased my balance from 200 to 750 . Every day I hoped for the mail to arrive to get the security code for withdrawal and had decided to withdraw the amount I have at that point.
This scheme worked fine until yesterday. I started with a balance of 675 and got 3 blackjack hands in a row. Therefore I quickly hit the 750 mark and this was the amount I had decided to stop on playing anyway.
But then I started thinking that I have grown my balance from 200 to 750 using only small (1-5 ) bets so why shouldn't I try something bigger and if I lose I will stop at 675 balance where I started from the same day. So I started betting 25 per hand but the odds really turned against me and I lost 5 first hands in a row plus a double bet. I couldn't believe my bad luck so I continued hitting with 25 and losing rapidly. I wish I had come to my senses and stopped at any amount but I just felt I couldn't stop because I had had so much trouble building the bankroll slowly and I felt I don't have the patience to do it again so I kept betting 25 until I lost it all. It took only about 100 hands to lose all of the 750 I had built so the return percentage during these 25 bets was
(100*25 - 750)/100*25 = 70 %
So the game which allowed me to build my bankroll slowly, suddenly gave only 70% return when I increased by bet size to 25 . So either the game is rigged with bet size or I was just incredibly unlucky. I hate myself for playing such a disciplined game for so long and then losing all my self-control in a split second. It is true as someone said that gambling is 90% boring grinding and 10% pure horror.
I guess I should feel lucky since I still withdrew 500 for my 25 deposit but getting that 750 extra would have compensated for all my losses up to this point. And what happens the next day? I get the verification code by mail where they say I can now withdraw the rest of my winnings but there's nothing left to withdraw...
