Oh well, get the ordering done for the inventory and going to call H-Money and see what his plans are for tonight or tomorrow night.  We should probably go to the casino and play a few shoes. 

Let me get a doughnut with those scrumptious multi colored sprinkles and a cup of great coffee.  I will call him and see what is up.  Hopefully he did not sneak out to the casino this week, he promised he would wait till late week.

I think he sees the light.  Hopefully he did not drink too much beer or eat too much PHO this week. 

Oh lord!  I have been accused of spending too much time on the computer and the concern was actually done by someone attempting to discredit, demean and troll me.  LOL! (Disclosure: I did not say here so do not assume I am directing this at anyone here, STOP THE ASSUMPTIONS!)  I asked one of my workers and she came up with this link I am posting, as she came to my environment from a bookkeeping job in an office.  It was a slow office and when there was nothing to do they would of course play on the computer.  She said her boss emailed her this and said, I know you spend time doing other things on the computer, maybe you should help out in other departments.  But the bottom line is, I think it is a great pun innuendo! 

Why would someone really care like Victor says, what another does?  he is exactly correct, 100%!

As far as the Blogs go, If you do not enjoy, like, find interesting, learn from, relate to or something positive along those lines, there would be no reason to waste your time on another's Blog.  In all reality, you are wasting your precious time and you reduce yourself to the mentality of the Blogger and find yourself being frustrated and unnecessarily inflaming yourself with hatred.  Maybe that is why Lee Harvey Oswald did what he did?  Maybe huh?

4 Songs from last night.  Yes, into music a great expression of our experiences, likes, dislikes, and everything else. 

#1)  The Best of the Best:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FBUe_v6Mi70&list=RDFBUe_v6Mi70&start_radio=1

And yes, this was one of the songs on the casinos play list when we were there!

And, when the players can quickly empty the dealers chips rack and the floor manager has to call security and stop the game, it is past exciting.  I do not care what you have experienced, there is no feeling seeing every chip except the white chips in the dealers rack taken by the players.  None, none whatsoever!  And the $5,000 table we did it on was on the main floor, so you can imagine how many people were standing there watching this take place.   

#2)  Second one was:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nM0Fl2MnV5Y

My boys from NYC and Jersey when they collaborated with Areosmith, perfect song at the casino when you are winning of course. 

#3) Another great song from the time we were there:   https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vwqoce0Ruso

#4)  This is the one I continually over sing a phrase or two at the tables on occasion and the past couple of night with two great shoes out of the 3 and a half that were great, I changed to words from wrong place to right place.  After all, gotta bring out the camaraderie and let it shine!

Yeah, we are sitting here after a few hours sleep.  I have someone covering my business all day today.  H-Money is technically closed on Sundays unless he gets an emergency call form a client.  The other family member has a corporate job,spoiled no weekends, LOL.

We got a few hours sleep and H-Money has ants in his pants to get to the casino. I yelled and screamed at him and still holding the first $18k I cashed out. He has the rest.  I am going to give him a crash course in real life Money Management After The Casino Win, in a few min's after some coffee and Krispy Kreme doughnuts someone is delivering to us. 

1) Pay past bills
2) Pay all bills for next 30 to 90 days at least (if not more)
3) Replace your Back Roll, in his case, he blew his 10 times over, so I will design one for him
4) Put away emergency money for his family, his case at least $2,500.00 cash with an elderly family member that does not go to the casino, etc.
5) Put away next few months extra money for his family members, birthdays, graduations, etc. His case I figure about $3,000.00
6) Pay the one lady he borrowed money from with interest owed.  I will do that for him before giving him back the remainder of the $18k
7)  That should leave him around $6k to $7k for his new Bank Roll. 

He will understand how this works, this time he can see it.  No more euphoric recall, the best way I have found to describe bac players and their reasoning, to say what overpowered them or him at the tables the past year or so.

Talking about it and doing it are two separate and seldom connected events.  But this time he can be hands on and he has experienced the bad side for a while.  I know a lot of gamblers and a lot of real casino bac players for many years.  Every single one of them that have anything today, have lost everything several times, but at least once.  Not a single one has won and consistently kept winning and always positive since day one, not one, not a single one.    

We are unwinding (as others say, LOL)  H-Money, myself and another family member still up after the midnight to 5 am outing to the casino for the second night in a row. 

At the house made some pasta sauce (Sunday Gravy) with a 2 pound package of Linguine.  My base gravy form scratch, canned Italian Roma tomatoes squeezed by hand and everything else.  A whole 2 pound package of mild Italian sausage, etc.  Came out pretty darn good, no great!  Huge bowls for each of us.  H-Money the commie does not like Parmesan on his pasta so his is without. 

Oh yeah, please understand the sauce highlights the pasta, not inundates it!

H-Money recouped right at $24,000.00 from the one shoe the other night.  I took $18,000.00 right off the table and went to cash it in.  I held it for him with making him to stick to 1/3rd of the $6,000.00 win in front of him plus his buy in. 

He got up to $11,000.00 or so of win without his buy in, using my 1/3rd Money Management Method and then went went down to $7,500.00. Then I told him I was leaving and he agreed. 

His total recoup was right at $25k to $26k with his buy in put back away as well.

It worked.  Thank the Lord!

Oh Lord, H-Money text me this morning before he got out of his house to go open his business.  He said he had a dream last night.  I will post the text later tonight. 

The following was posted by Lungyeh, in another thread:

There have been countless discussions about systems based approaches, trends, anti trends, dragon repeat, dragon jump (BPBPBP...) etc.

I had an interesting discussion with several gamers recently as to an approach which has won one practitioner S$1mil per year for 2 years running now.

This guys spends 4-5 hours a day in the casino walking around looking for a noisy busy table. Baccarat tables are normally busy in Asian based casinos due to the popularity of the game. He finds a table and watches for a lead customer on a roll ie making unfathomable winning hands. He merely follows with a S$1k bet and once awhile S$2k. He wins 3-4 bets and leaves making S$3-4k per day. No fuss no stress. No system.

One could also find a losing customer who loses no matter what he bets. We just bet opposite to his bets. I am not a proponent of this schadenfreude approach and I find no joy in this practice and do not recommend.

But following the winning bets of a customer on a roll sounds good and less stressful.

And yes, I totally agree.  I have written about this and most things that go along with it, emotions, winning no matter what the person wagers on, losing no matter what the person wagers on, etc.  It all affects the atmosphere of those sitting at the table.

No matter what anyone says, a table of screaming people winning stacks of chips equivalent to most any ones weekly pay check or take from a business within 30 to 90 seconds at a clip, is powerful.  That is a given.  Coupled with occurring hand after hand after hand.

Like wise, the complete opposite.  Losing.  Extremely powerful as well,  Although a miserable aura and heart wrenching feelings abound, especially when you know the people or have played with them for some time, even worse.   

There are players at a table that will very obviously wager very clearly opposite of what some are doing and there are other players that will also wager with those, especially the larger wagering bets being made.  Both have an effect on many people, maybe not all, but most.  I generally do not wager against people, I have if I see something else that leads me that way, but rarely have I for just that sole reason.  On the other hand, I have solely wagered with other players, which I call getting sucked in, for the sole reason of their wager.  Seldom is it a small wager or just asking someone what side to wager on, etc. 

Many things at the bac table as I have mentioned in my long rants and threads, etc., have pointed these things out.  Yes, there are many side ways things that come into play for various reasons I believe we all have, no matter if that is columns, roads, guessing, past experiences, things other players are saying and doing, etc. 

If someone can limit themselves to something such as Lungyeh stated above, it simplifies the game enormously.  However, there very well might be a downfall to that as well.  Can that person looking for a happy/joyous table with a certain caliber of winning player or even a losing one with the player destined in his mind to lose, and place your larger wager accordingly always maintain their winnings and consistently rely on that as the sole source of their betting reason(s).  A few wagers, quick and simple.  A nice possible protocol?

Can that be replicated into its own game plan and schedule for others to count on?  But do it too much and the tables turn, which they always will in the game of bac.

Brings one player to mind I watched for years.  Always came with the same amount of money.  $600.00.  Always bought in for $300.00 once or twice.  Once if he won and twice if he lost.  His wagers were always the same.  I can not tell you why he wagered on what he did, he never spoke to anyone.  But it was clear what he was doing.  He was betting on the opposite side when everyone was all heavy wagering on one side, but never the first time the table wagered on that one side after the guy got there and bought in. He would put the $300.00 on the opposite side and if won he would do it one additional time with a full parlay.  His goal was to wager to win $900.00.  He never played more than the $600.00 once a week and he almost never played past obtaining $900.00 if he won.  I might have seen him wager once more on rare occasion.  I just remember this player now that Lungyeh wrote what he did.

I see many wager small amounts and much larger amounts with that purpose.  I have just never seen anyone that decisively did it without wagering anything else or playing a longer time, with the exception of that one person.   

Fact is, anything is possible and anything can win in Bac for a few hands within a shoe.

When someone admits that his own bred of people, Asians, are degen and stupid gamblers, it is not racist or anything of the nature, BTW, LOL.  Go eat some waffles and watch the changing of the guard or what ever the unintelligent junk is they call it. With their cartoon Peter unintelligent-bro hats on, LOL.

A little over an hour drive to go pick him up, a bit over one hour to get to the casino, then an hour back to drop him home and about an hour to get myself home as well.  His car is in the dealership waiting for parts, so I have to drive and go get him. 

Going with H-Money tonight to a casino.  He has $300 of promo chips expiring in April and only needs $300 to buy in with.  I told him I did not want to go, too much to do.  He begged me.  I told him I would under one condition.  He brings only the $300 cash and he plays with that and I get the promo chips, LOL! , but true!  And, if he wins double the $300, he has to put 50% away of the win ($300) and he can continue playing with the remaining win plus whatever he has of the buy-in.  And, then every time he gets in excess of $300 win, at least 50% has to be put away.  He agreed. 

I will attempt to take pics and post tomorrow night. 

No, there is a lesson to be learned here I do believe.  As well, the insight to minds of gamblers should be talked about and explored. 

He is not going to listen to me and I am not his 'wife' or 'parent'.  I agree with you, most people do not really care or learn what others do at the tables.  But in this case since I have in depth and detailed discussions with H-Money, I think putting it out there for all to read is insightful to those that think baccarat is the easy-money street to fame and fortune.

You know, people do not really look at those that lose and devastate themselves.  All they generally look at and talk about, is the high fiving, the larger wins and how half the table of 4 or 5 players profited by tens of thousands of dollars on a streak or two of Bs or Ps the other night at the bac table, etc.

Re-Read if you are a serious player. 

IMO, right up there at the top of the list.
