\nI suspect people have a whole lot of reasons for gambling, some good, some not so good
\n\tbut reasons non the less.<\/p>\n
\tI have a few myself, some good, and some i will never understand. <\/p>\n
\n\tBut also for me and i bet for many of you, we gamble or fish or fly or what ever, because
\n\tonce and awhile..,.not often, but now and then something happens that you will remember.<\/p>\n
\tCraps is like that, you dont remember the all the losses, but your first 30, 40 50 or so on
\n\tyou remember that.<\/p>\n
\tLast night at the table was a completely forgetable event. I was at stl 2 on a small table
\n\t…perfect…. but nothing, no on had anything…at one point i had a 28-30 and got
\n\tback to even almost then down hill..<\/p>\n
\tI only bought in for $250 so i was not going to starve Tuesday, but i was not going
\n\tto buy in for more. The end opened up and Dennis said you did well from there two
\n\tweeks ago try it… i had $75 left so i did and couple rolls looked better but not
\n\treally,….. end of story….. had $15 left….. Pit boss said looked like a rough night
\n\tyou have enough for pass line bet and double odds…. come back of the year and
\n\twe laughed.
\n\tWhat the hell, i have left over supper in the fridge for lunch tomorrow.
\n\tCome out roll…..6
\n\t3v set $5 pass $10 odds no other bet…. i am all in.<\/p>\n
\t8-10 rolls and i got the six. have enough now for another pass line and $6 6 & 8
\n\tcome out is a 4… i make the 4, then an 8, then 5- 8 eights in a row.
\n\tIt was not an hour roll, but when it was over i had $200 in the rack and $90
\n\ton the table…. bit boss gave me a big smile and walked away….<\/p>\n
\tThis was fun… i was all in …. i had to make the numbers that i bet.<\/p>\n
\tOver-all the evening was a not a money maker, but i enjoyed the ride home
\n\tas much as if it were.<\/p>\n

"Did you win anything for me? etc…etc…I’ll be there in less than an hour." Similar situation…I have a full tank of gas, and my take home container in the fridge. Oh darn! I have to play again. At this table, all the dealers know my wife and I well, and were really ragging me. Stickman says, "stay focused, and win Karen some money." \tI was "all in". For the best of reasons. I would not, and could not, have done this without a proper 401G. It takes the pressure off. Karen was happy, I was happy, and they had a great week end. I went to 5th grade cheer practice, and fund raiser. It doesn’t get any better than that!<\/p>\n \tShoot with passion… I suspect people have a whole lot of reasons for gambling, some good, some not so good but reasons non the less.

\n\tI am leaving Friday, and wife is coming in with 3 co-workers, to take my room for the week end. <\/p>\n
\n\tThirty five minutes…the only winning run I had. It was also the best concentration, goal oriented , of anything I had done. I think sometimes, I just enjoy being there too much, and don’t work hard.<\/p>\n
