\nSue and I normally spend the month of February in Las Vegas, however this year
\n\tI managed to mess up the time table.<\/p>\n
\tWe decided to take a couple of weeks and swing down through St Louis, along the
\n\triver down to New Orleans and along the Golf Coast.<\/p>\n
\tI figured there are enough craps tables in that trip to keep me in the life style
\n\tI am use to. (laughing) <\/p>\n

If you want to change it, leave and come back. <\/p>\n \tNow, if you wait until you THINK you are hot before putting out bigger money, you will cost yourself profit because with an edge, at any given time, first roll or last roll of the session might be your big roll. I really don’t like the idea of "Warming up" before putting out bigger money. Decide on what you are going to bet and stick to it.

\n\ttable, They include St Louis, Tunica, Vicksburg, New Orleans and Biloxi.<\/p>\n
\n\tjust from a standpoint of playing. <\/p>\n
\n\tand then back to St Louis and home.<\/p>\n
\n\tGood Rolling. \ud83d\ude42 \ud83d\ude42<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n\tshe had a great time.<\/p>\n
\n\tI am sure I will get enough feed back to make sense of it all.<\/p>\n
\n\twhich is 6 months of play for me. Also in that time I drove from Wisconsin
\n\tto the golf and back home. I ended with an SRR of 7.8.<\/p>\n
\n\tof that playing a negative expectation game for 6 months and being
\n\tahead is not easy.. (26 sessions would be six months play for me)<\/p>\n
\n\tshot developed and some adjustments I made, I was truly disappointed
\n\tby 4 mistakes I made which kept me from coming home well ahead.<\/p>\n
\n\t2……I over bet the quality of my toss on day one when I bet more than
\n\t normal before my shot was right. One morning I did not warm up
\n\t before hitting the table and after several rolls I had a nice hand
\n\t going ( betting more than I should) and a player placed his chips
\n\t right where I was landing my dice, I still had four inches or so
\n\t which on a 12 foot table is more than I need and I hit his chips..
\n\t Total lack of concentration on that shot.<\/p>\n
\n\t and a couple of times I played tired which cost me.<\/p>\n
\n\t me and I normally would have stayed 10 miles away from…<\/p>\n
\n\twhen the pit boss leaned over and said, I can see you can put those dice
\n\twhere ever you want them to go, so I am going to assume if you miss the
\n\tback wall, you did it on purpose.<\/p>\n
