Does this mean I have a problem?

[JimmyTime]

I rarely go to casinos but was quite bored so I went to play some blackjack and ended up leaving 25 hours later! Took an hour break to walk around outside and get some grub. Played $15 every hand and ended up losing $30 total. Time goes fast at the tables but 25 hours looking back sounds sickening. I did have a good time though bullshitting with various people, watching people come and go losing a lot of
$ quickly or some getting lucky. Just wondering if I have some type of record amongst madjackers for my feat. :facepalm:

to go 25 hours and lose 2 units means you are pathetic.



why continue playing at such a grind if you aren't being profitable?

You beat me but here is a good story... Had a good friend who liked to go the casino and play black jack. He always thought he could make a living at it and we all laughed at him. He was the manager of a Hardees and was in charge of making the deposit. (at least 15 years ago) Well my buddy was gone for about 3 days and then I get the phone call... "You got about 3 grand I can borrow?" I gave out an immediate chuckle and laugh and he said I am serious.. I fucked up. He told me that he took the cash to the casino thinking that it takes money to make money. He was there for 3 days and finally lost it all. I laughed hysterically. That was balls.. The kicker is he said that he was up 2 grand at one point. I am like why the fuck didn't you leave and make the deposit. You could of went back. FUNNY

Personally, I was impressed that you only lost $30 in 25 hours. I don't even want to think of how much money I could lose in a casino in 25 hours. :scared

I hope you were rated for the comps. Even $15 a hand for that long will get your some freebies.

Generally......only as much as you bring.

Touche, yyz, touche. But if I knew I was going in for a 25-hour bender, that would be too much. :0008

If you did this SOBER, then, yes, you set a Mad Jack record...

Once did a 24 hour session at blackjack in Laughlin in the late 90s. Harrah's to be exact and think I won $300. Remember have hot chocolates for calorie intake, lol.

i've gone on 30-35 hour benders before.

generally speaking... if i plan on being out for awhile at about the 12 hour point i make a decision to pack it in or stay the night. all depends on the cash flow.

i normally do these long grinds at the poker tables though. I have done some at a mix of craps and 21.

Man no kidding I never have the discipline it takes to just bet small like that over and over... I always start that way then get bored. Start doubling and tripling up and next thing you know im busted:shrug:

This thread is teaching me that I don't like gambling nearly as much as I thought I did. :142smilie
