Ladies and gents, exactly 31 days after making deposit of a little under $2,500, my account stood at a STAGGERING $31,768.
Today, 20 days after that, the deposit is back down to about $2,400.
After buying a motorcycle buyers guide, researching HDTVs etc...
boom, I'm actually down.
ASTOUNDING.
It's been a helluva ride though...and the FOURTH time in the 20 months or so that I have made at least $20,000 in gambling runs...only to give it all back (and then some)...usually just as I was about to pull it all out.
The difference this time, unlike the previous 3 runs, is that this time involved (virtually, except a few 1-5 dollar bets the last few days) NO online blackjack. Which is good. Discipline is good. My net BJ losses/gains in this most recent run? I lost exactly $17.50 playing BJ. The other $30K was lost exactly the way I made it...a helluva streakish, freakish array of bets (and some bonuses).
I am a book's dream! The quintessential idiot gambler who goes on a tremendous run, thinks he's a god, and then comes crashing down.
Oh well, it was entertaining, I suppose. But a tremendous waste of time. I still have a rollover requirement in the one book I still have money in. I already emailed them asking them to please let me just take my few remaining pennies and sit in a corner and sulk. We'll see what they answer tomorrow. If they let me do it, I'm going on a nice, long vacation....away from gambling, and back to real estate (a far safer form of gambling). If not, well, I'll be back here within a day or two bit$ching about having blown another couple Gs....
This is one hardcore business, gentlemen. Not for the faint of heart.
