So touching on what Finisher said, if you are going to a casino for a 6 day trip and you blow all your money on day 1, Why not just make it a 1 day trip and play heavy.  There is only one answer here.  You have a much higher chance of making more money if you have many small sessions especially if you have a edge at the game.  Please make the right decision and play smart.<\/p>\n<p>\tMidnight<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"migrated-reply\" style=\"border: 1px solid #eee;padding: 15px;margin-bottom: 15px;border-radius: 5px\">\n<p><strong>Posted by:<\/strong> Dr Crapology on June 12, 2014, 6:04 pm<\/p>\n<div>This is a no brainer.  Bet low spread out your betting as your bankroll allows.  Funny things can happen in a game of chance you can lose everything early on in a trip or you can win big or lastly your wins and losses will bounce back and forth.  <\/p>\n<p>\tSo play smart.  We all assume you have a slight edge with your GTC skills in tact so time is on your side.  Don&#8217;t get greedy.

This could mean betting more when your shot is on and you are feeling good.  Never roll on the first or last days of your trip.  There are many times when I avoid playing when the tables are crowded or conditions turn against you due to outside factors.  Last but not least, only bet on yourself and five count or avoid betting on random rollers all together.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"migrated-reply\" style=\"border: 1px solid #eee;padding: 15px;margin-bottom: 15px;border-radius: 5px\">\n<p><strong>Posted by:<\/strong> Dr Crapology on June 12, 2014, 10:03 pm<\/p>\n<div>DP&#8212;well said.
