hi all,

went to mohegan and foxwoods in ct this past weekend. made about 4k total. up 7k the past week. slow and steady has been winning for me.....

might head to local casino tuesday night and try for my 1k profit.....

hey marine, im glad you're winning a nice chunk. im wondering if you will tell us the truth if you ever get on a bad losing streak. hope it won't happen but people tend to hold off mentioning how much they lost and always post how much they won. where is the local casinos you are referring about?

[marinetech]

Hey all,
Won 1k tonight in 20 minutes......8k past 8 days or so.

Overall, I'm down probably 50-75k playing baccarat. I would play just to play. Never had a win or stop loss. That was my downfall thinking I would win 20-100k on a magical run.

Once I stopped that, I have been doing good.....

Time will tell and I will keep you updated.....

Good luck Marinetech. You will do fine because now you know how important to walk away when winning.

My problems before was I didn't know what to do when I lost a few hands. I was panic and kept betting to get my losses back like yesterday. Also, I had a hard time walking away after winning like $500-$1000. I guess I learned the hard way.

[marinetech]

ya, i would gamble to gamble. I mean its hard driving an hour sometimes and be up in 3-5 hands 1k and walking. But, treat it as a business and your outlook changes....

1k a day= 28-30k cash a month, not too shabby for most....

I have contemplated the following is I can keep this up for 1 month:

I have (3) casinos within 1 hour 15 mins from me. One is 15 minutes away, the other is 1:15 to the east and 1:15 to the west. All thruway driving, very easy drive.

So, if I could treat it as a job, that's 1k each casino/day, 21k a week, 84k+ a month!

But, I want to see if this holds up for a month. Again, I will update. Me and a friend are leaving at 930am to head to one 1:15 minutes away. I will update later...

Absolutely, I am unintelligent, so I think I will sell all my excavators, skid loaders, side dumps, straight dumps, roll off containers, quick response vehicles and trailers, compactors, traffic control signage and sign boards, sampling equipment, office, equipment, inventory, shop/warehouse and land and play everyday at the casino.  I am tired of working from 7am to 6pm everyday.  Instead of making a couple hundred thousand a year, I figure I can make $2k a day and take in about $700k a year and don't even have to pay taxes!!!!  What was I thinking before working all these years?  Hey Ted, seriously!

[Ted009]

Alrelax, nothing is wrong. There are people making a living by playing baccarat. I know one of  them in my area. Is it easy to do? For me it is not. That is why I am learning it every day. I only can speak for myself. I learned from a few members here and I also learned a lot from you. Those who have helped me know who they are. Thank you all for all your help.
I am not sure when I will get there but I will be there, if the Good Lord is willing. " where there is a will, there is a way."

[alrelax]

Never said it cannot be done.  That is why I want to lock the door and sell the excavators, the skid loaders, the side dump, the straight dump trucks, the vehicles, the trailers, the yard and shop.

The money is not in owning a casino, not in running special events, not in hosting, not in doing any of that.  It is in gambling and getting cash everyday, LOL, I am so stupid for actually thinking otherwise.

hey all,

went to 1st casino made 900 after commission called it a day there, drove to 2nd casino, blew 300 on stupid slot machine. PLayed bacc and won 1300, got my 300 from machine back and my 1k goal....

1900+ yesterday 2 casinos. Keeping the train going. Might go tonight to one 15 minutes away.....keep you updated...

I'm going to chime in on this even though I haven't seen or experienced it myself. Alrelax is 100% correct on his comments and even on his sarcasm. Haha. If it really was that easy to win, people with big 401k or lifetime savings could just cash out and play bac for a living. So many people try that in poker and only a handful hit it big. This is GAMBLING. It's been perfected in the beginning to give the casino the edge it needs, plus they pretty much have an unlimited bankroll to back them up. They restrict us gamblers with limits otherwise a billionaire might not ever lose in bac. Forget the other casino games. Bac might be the easiest to master but everything needs to be in check. Attitude, greed factor, mental toughness, money management and many other smaller factors. Once one of these factors get compromised you are more vulnerable to making a mistake and that might jeopardize the other factors. This will eventually snowball into total disaster. Marine, again I'm happy you are winning and I wish you luck. I wish I had the size of bankroll you do because I would destroy with confidence. I'm destroying at this point but at a much smaller level. Anyway, there is really no need to post EVERY trip to the casino. To me it seems like you're starting to get a bit overconfidence which would be a bad trait for gambling professionally. Take a step back and remain on your goal. As soon as you lose control it all goes down the tube. The story I told the last time was of a fella who did the winning a little every day for a few years than finally lost control and lost his whole fortune and family!!!! Gambling is all random and that random will finally catch up to you with a big losing streak where you need to minimize the damage. As long as the bankroll is sufficient and you maintain your stop loss goal, anything can be done. But once someone experiences 2 than 3 and than maybe 4 losing days in a row after winning 2 months straight can easily start playing tricks on you. Just be safe and be careful everyone.

Hey marinetech, haven't heard from you in a couple of days. Any new updates? Which casinos do you normally play at?

[brokerny]

strange that Marinetech posted practically every day for a few days about his winnings. all of a sudden, he's no where to be found. does anyone think the tide has changed for him in a big way and he doesn't want to let us know? Marine, if you're around, let us know what happened? any kind of experiences give members more information to go on.
