As this monster seven plus month Vegas trip comes to a close, I have some thoughts.

Over all what I have found is that CONTROL is what affects the outcome of a casino trip more than anything else. Win or losses happen constantly but how you deal with them is what affects the session results.

The play isn�t what makes the difference in the end - so much as how you react to it. I had more than a few sessions in early part of this latest trip where I came back to even and just left with a few hunny, content. Towards trip end I noticed that I�d get back to even and just want to keep playing.

Early in the trip anytime I started to lose I�d just deal with it calmly and get out of it. Later in the trip I�d get agitated and while sometimes the losses would lead to a massive win sometimes it would lead to a big loss. So what happens after too many sessions in a row is you start losing control.

Also earlier in the trip walking ahead even a few k was easy. After getting used to big wins it somehow became harder to walk ahead unless well ahead. Over all - the more you play the more worn out you might get and greater potential for mishap.
