Don’t say anything, please. 
Down again
May 31st, 2008Blackjack Results: Back up for ‘08
May 18th, 2008I’ve climbed from my negative downfall at the start of 2008 and turned it into a marginal plus for the year.
I realize it’s minimal, but at least we’re not $5000 behind… 
Wish me luck for May!
More Blackjack Losses
April 26th, 2008Have been on a cold streak and it’s hurting. I’ve gone back to gambling more than I was hoping to do, and I’m learning my lesson the hard way.
Down a couple grand for April and only had a couple winning sessions early in the month.
Planning a couple days outside the country, hope they don’t have casinos in Valencia.

Blackjack Betting Strategy: my $100-$150-$250 system
April 7th, 2008
It’s one of the most successful betting strategies I’ve used in my time has been paying off in the past few weeks again. It takes long sessions to make a living, but it cuts the risks to an absolute minimum if you stick to basic strategy.
I used to play each day and quit as soon as I got $1000 ahead. I made about $4000 a week losses included on a 6-deck game.
A quick rundown;
1. Forget about doubles. Stick to basic strategy, but when you lose a double, don’t up your next bet.
2. Lose the $100? Bet $150 next. You’ll win $50 over the course of two bets if you win.
3. Lose your $150 bet? Bet $250 in the next run. You’ll break even over the 3 bets if you win and will be down $500 if you lose.
4. Once you lose a $250, go back down to $100. I know this means you’ll encounter some downswings, but believe me — all you need is a $2500 bankroll to be almost safe to not go broke.
Won $1200 yesterday in about two hours. Never was down a single second.
Two blackjack wins…
April 2nd, 2008I haven’t been a good boy. Really — I haven’t. I was going to really cut back, yet this week I ended up in a casino twice playing blackjack. The good thing is I won twice, but that really doesn’t matter too much to me at the moment. I felt ok coming out, but once I stepped into my car I kinda felt sick and both times — realizing these wins are worth absolutely nothing when my real goal is seriously cutting back on my gambling.
Anyway, bankroll got helped out a little which puts me close to even for ‘08 — but I’m sticking to my plan to tune down the gambling… Bare with me… 
Lost a little last week…
March 28th, 2008
I’ve been doing pretty ok in March, but I did have a little slip-up at the casino when I flipped a coin about whether to take a trip to city A without a casino or city B with a casino. Faith landed on city B which to me was a green light to sit down at a blackjack table.
I did good until at a certain point I lost 13 hands in a row which obviously cripled me. I felt bad but as I’m doing great in the business side of my life the impact on my finances was close to none which is good considering some of the losses I sustained before…
Anyway, trying to get my act together, hickups along the way…
Blackjack addiction 1 – 1 DC
March 19th, 2008I’ve decided to set short term goals, and for now I’m doing okay. I haven’t entered a casino since my last post here, and I haven’t played any online blackjack either… I feel good. I’m working hard, I’m doing good at work, and I’m focussed on the important stuff in life…
I also talked to a friend about my problem. She knew about my gambling, but was quite surprised to hear me say I had a problem. I’m a strong person in the real world, people think I’m not prone to these kind of things. Heck, I thought I wasn’t prone to these kind of things…
Admitting to myself that I am is an important step. I’m glad I made it.
My gambling addiction…
March 13th, 2008I feel better. I have been working hard in the past few days, and have earned back the money I blew off. I got my credit card statement and it hurt – I honestly feel like sobering up is the way to go here. I’m turning this blog into me fighting my gambling problem, I’m affraid.
Anyway, the thing is — I still have quite a lot of knowledge — who knows I’ll write some articles one day — the kind that explains the game, but also warns those who start playing it…
Blergh.
