Over all, it was this sort of thing years ago that led me to take a break from casino play. I was over all ahead, but I was having big swings, and not even as big as some of the swings I have been experiencing lately.
Just takes up a lot of energy for something where I don't really need the money and I'm just putting it away. It does detract from real life for something that is meant to be just a side hobby entertainment that happens to be profitable.
Whether it's time to take a long break or a short one, it is time to take...a break!

Day 47 play.
Baccarat.
Pretty solid. Was by no means easy lot of up and down along the way. It's not always easy to win. Two or three times I kept getting stuck at around +30K and once I even went negative substantially. What�s ironic is that when I passed +50k eight more Players landed (14 Player run) but I had achieved my goal so I bet ridiculously small all through it! once I was close to fifty K ahead. But I did win on most all of the Players on that run.
There was another point much earlier in the session when I took a single 5K chip and kept doubling it on a different Player run. 5K, 10K, 20K, I had 20K left on there was resigned to leaving it up when a female friend of mine "take is easy Tiger" 'ed me into taking a few free hands. Argh. And that Player run went on 4 more hands so I would have ended the session right then ahead over seventy large. And that's why I don't like having friends or family at the table with me. Gotta be relentless sometimes in order to win and the real world looks at 20000 differently from the way I do, at least, when I am at the tables.
Whoever invented gambling was smart, whoever invented the casino chip - a genius.

Day 48 play.
Baccarat.
I had one large hand, and then cut my bet drastically and won 14 hands in a row afterwards! When that sort of thing happens, I think of the line from [i]Blow,[i] about moving 300 kilos and making dog shit, which is exactly what I've been making lately on shoes where I've won 10 or more hands in a row. I need to step it up at such times.
What's the matter, George?
Nothing.
I mean...
...aside from the fact that we're moving 300 fucking kilos...
...and we're making dog shit, nothing.

Going on a trip, returning from a trip, with pretty polly pulled from the casinos of Vegas, quite a feeling!
