topstep1 Posted April 9, 2014 Report Share Posted April 9, 2014 I had a session the other night and I lost 10 units and all the way home I'm trying to figure out where I went wrong , First let me start off by saying the session didn't start off good because I got into a spat with a fellow player , Rule#1 Don't talk or lolly gag before the shoe starts, You have to be 101% in the shoe before the first hand is dealt , anyway he makes a comment and the conversation went well into the 3rd or 4th hand it totally took me off my game (and I knew better) . Every time I get back from the casino one thingI always do is go over the shoe or shoes I played, that's where you get all your confirmation as to what you did right and what you did wrong especially when you have a losing session , it might hurt but it has to be done , that's when you learn the most , going over losing shoes and practicing when you don't feel like it . If I have 2 losing sessions in a row (something's wrong) and I have to address itimmediately before I go back into the casino or It will continue . And I must say the losing sessions a lot of times is from going on TILT , BEING STUBBORN AND TRYING TO MAKE SOMETHING HAPPEN ( THE PRICE CAN BE COSTLY) BUT ANYWAY I was going over my card the other night and the count got so far off that it cost me 10 units , and I broke a couple of playing rules that were etched in stone. And I preach on this all the time. The Moral to the story is "Keep your mouth shut ,Watch the count and concentrate" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are there to take money from the casino. Your head needs to be 100% in the game and trying to juggle a popularity contest with managing a few columns of numbers is not my cup of tea. I'm not in the casino for entertainment or casual banter with the other players. I will always be civil but when another player gets a bit too chummy for my taste, I'll mention it to them. After all, it's my money out there and I'm there for a reason. You posted up a good message for everyone to review. MVS Quote What's an MVSeahog?
