Most of my loses are on sports betting.

Last big loss was 1k...

24k vegas

u know there is irony to that, Adam Small found a 100 chip at the Venetian :upsidedow

$600 one night at the poker table playing 1-2nl. I know when its not my night.

Anyone have any "lucky" hotels in Vegas ??

My luck always seemed to be the same for certain places. MGM Grand has never been kind to me. Paris seems to like me better!

I did good last year at the monte carlo and the new one next to it aria city center I think it was called..

Billy Watson is the man!

I gamble way to fucking much, however, I gamble what I can afford. My philosophy with gambling mirrors my philosophy to opening a bar, "Don't ever put in enough money where you'll miss it if you lose all of it."

I'd say last year in total, I've lost about $20K. I attribute the $6K loss in vegas to alcohol and little sleep. You just don't think straight lol.

My problem, is I'm competitive as hell. I don't play so I can "double my money so I can pay the mortgage." I'm a high limit hold 'em poker player, and you can beat that game if you know what the hell you are doing (and the rake isn't obscene). I just always think, "practice makes perfect...I can beat the other players." Unfortunately, practice is VERY expensive.

Spoken liken a gambling addict I suppose lol....

My brother is in debt 10000$ and probably because of toomuch sportbetting.Now i saving his stupid ass with loan.And i think i lost around 500$ or 1000$,dont remember exactly.

It's only money.

Loaning money to a compulsive gambler is just a bad idea (even family). I've given my mom thousands of dollars to help pay her debts, even though she makes $80K a year, is single, and has a cheap mortgage, and she still can't get out of debt (Cuz all her money goes to casinos). Drives me fucking crazy, and I'm done bailing her out.

That wouldn't be on Saturday night, between the hours of 11:30 PM and 1:15 AM would it?

I could not lose at the Venetian last week.

I do not gamble anymore because I just don't get out and about much anymore...but I used to play no limit poker (lowball and draw) virtually every night and lost a few thousand sometimes and won a few thousand sometimes. It becomes to be a very boring game if one plays it properly and patience is the most important part of the game...that is after paying your dues to learn the game.
