Mid week, long day, ate and cleaned up as well as took a nap. Woke up well after 10 PM, felt real positive with a very good feeling. This particular casino I wanted to go to, I normally buy in with $1500-$2500 (having $100-$300 beginning base wagers, X's about 10 or so chances) but somehow I grabbed $500 thinking to wager two or three bets only, and attempt to parlay three or four times one of those wagers successfully.

I get there, full table, just started a new shoe. Everyone saying how bad all the previous shoes were and lots of lost money from all the players. The aura was not very good at all. 

I sat down and bought in immediately after hand 4. I place a Banker wager looking for the continued chop chop. 7 for the prayer and 6 for the banker. I stick with the banker and the F7 and the dragon bonus side bets. Boom and Boom!  Fortune seven and a 6 to 1 pay on the dragon bonus as well. Push on the banker base bet and up well over $1000 now on the second hand.

Stick with the banker, back to the chop-chop, lost a $200 wager.  Stick with the banker. Natural 9 over the players 7. Stick with the banker again, a natural wins for the players. Stick with the banker again and win the next two hands. Stick with the banker again and lose to the players. 

Now we are at hand 13. Stick with the banker and win hand 13 with a natural 9 over a natural 8 for the players.  Parlay the win and win the next hand. Now everyone pulls down siding only twos have been happening. Myself and one other person stick with the banker and we pump it up. Players flop a 7 and people are saying, watch the banker fizzle out right here. Banker gets a Natural win.  Once again most start wagering $500 plus on the player side. Let me tell you about hands 16 through 20.

HANDS 16-20.  Four out of five of those were 6 or 7s for the first two cards fon the players side. The banker won every one of them of course and it was all on the third card draw. Say the player at 7 with their two cards and the the banker had a face and a 4, the banker would pull a 4 or a 5 for their third card. Like I said, it was four out of five of those the banker won on the third card draw when the players opened with a 6 or a 7. Kinda unusual! 

Hand 21 was a tie and it was a Natural 8 for the player and a natural 8 for the banker.  Now most everyone was convinced it was going to switch to player, they kept buying in with extra funds or wagering what they had left on the table on the players side.  Only myself and maybe two others stuck with the bankers. 

Hand 22 was a 6 card draw, the players opened with a 7 and a 3.  Bankers opened with a 5 and a face card.  Players third card was a 6 and bankers third card was a 2 for the second fortune 7 win. 

I've talk to a lot of people about this next event and I don't ever recall seeing it happen quite like this. What happened was hand 23 and hand 24 were exactly the same. Player side opened with a 9 and an 8 and the banker opened with a 7 and a 2. Both hands were exactly the same, back to back and all the cards in both hands were either clubs or spades, as they were all black.  There were no red suited cards.

Played about half the shoe and I was up well over 10 times my buy-in. Tried a few more sections going forward, started to lose what I call, being in the groove. Gave back about 25% of my win maybe a little less, but I was well staying within my 1/3rd, 1/3rd, 1/3rd money management method that I've talked about so much.

Shoe reinforces so many thoughts I have, including those about most all players giving back most all win money in the hopes to keep replicating what has happened.  As well as remaining unrelentesly neutral with not being influenced by previous issues and experiences and allowing those to dictate what you should or should not wager on or for. 

NOTE:  Hand 3 was a 3 card, both sides 7-7 tie, which is a 200:1 side bet at the 5 Treasures bac branded game, but this table was not one of those.  I do like that 2 card 7s/3 card 7s tie bet, paying respectively 50:1 or 200:1 on the same wager.

That's a nice report!
Do you have the remaining hands of that shoe?

I don't have a picture, I have to take few pictures or they will stop me from taking them all together.

But after that bankers streak of 12, it was all 1s and 2s for about 14-15 or so alternating Bs and Ps, which would be around 25 hands or so at the most. 

Then there were more players in a row, than bankers.  Max was 5 players in a row, 3 and 4 players in a row as well.  A few double bankers and maybe one 3 in a row banker.  A few singles separating all of that.
