arty: like it's 1999
Good job on the card counting. Sometimes it works out like that.
there was no forms to fill out. I did this all on blackjack, unfreaking real. Really, i was down a ton, and some how i managed to turn it into a shit load of cash.:WTF:
i am still puzzled at how i got 21K, i had 35K at one point, and i bet nothign over 2K
Good job, bigbet. I don't know why you would be worried about the gov't. The casinos won't let you do that forever, and some bank tellers might perceive you to be a drug dealer, but the gov't will love the fact that the person that won that money is actually going to report it. Nicely done.
I went to Atlantic City back in 1981 when Resorts International was the only game in town.
I went down with 300 dollars thinking I can play ata 5 dollar table all night with that.
Stupid me, it was a Friday night, and the only mininum tables that had seats were 25 dollars.
Well, I looked around, said 'screw it' I drove 2 hours, I have enough for 12 flat 25 dollar bets, if I lose, no biggie.
Sat down at the green (25 dollar) seat, and instantaniously went on the blackjack heater of my life.
I'd get 19, dealer would have 18.
I'd stick on 16, dealer busted.
All night.
Drove home with 11,500 dollars. Bought a Camaro cash money Saturday morning.
True story, I don't care if you believe me or not.
I've just seen too many undercover exposé where gamblers were thrown out for winning too much. One was tossed for winning a mere $1700.
Personally, I've never won too much to be thrown out, but one time I was betting $100 a hand and won $1000.... two pitbosses started watching me and one even asked to see my ID.
Unless you can post a photo of the stash with today's newspaper.... just don't buy it. Sorry.
