You are powerless over gambling. Get over it.

BTW, anyone else blow a tourney win (of at lest 50K) that fast?

Last Sunday (the one eight days ago, didn't get around to posting right away), I went to a wedding reception, got drunk, then went to a strip club after with several friends including the bride and groom (they'd been married a month already), and got much, much drunker.

After that, I figured I shouldn't drive home, so I took a ride to the casino. They had 5/10 NLHE/NLO (talk about a crazy game) going there with an uncapped buy-in. I kept buying in for 2K-3K and before I knew it, I dropped $28,000. Biggest loss ever by at least 10K.

Probably about -110k.

I've lost 100k in a day about five times. Because of my tendency to chase losses (not really a bad thing) and my tendency to book wins (definitely a bad thing), my biggest wins are considerably smaller. I think my biggest winning day may only be like +80k, if that.
