Tues AM, myself and my long time girlfriend Viv, went to AC as a spur of the moment trip. I had received flyers from several of the Casions offering free nights Sun. thru Thurs. Originally we had planned to stay one night. However after I was down several hundred dollars I decided to extend the trip one more night to see if I could win back my losses. I had been playing my favoret Casions on the Boardwalk, the dice looked good but no luck. After about six or sever rolls the seven would appear. I also broke the GTC rule of betting on random shooters. That didn’t help any.

The morning we were to come home I went next door to the Casino that had a $3.00 passline bet. More money on the table but no luck. I changed my grip ever so slightly and that seemed to help my throw. My roll lasted over 1/2 hour with only one other player at the table who only had $ 6.00 on the six and a pass line bet. It was nice having the dice come back quickly with no interuptions. The crew and all of the other crews were very friendly with no hassle.

As it turned out I won all of my money back plus a very nice profit.

In hind sight, after analizing the session , my pressing of my bets should have been alot more, alot sooner. But being a very conservative player my whole intent was to win back my previous losses. My 401G has plenty or money but it is still very difficult for me to lose money. I guess it was ingrained in me from childhood.

All in all it was a fun time with limited expenses and a winning session.

Doug
