Blackjack and craps are entertainment as much as they are gambling. Rolling the dice for 30-40 consecutive rolls while the energy builds is addictive.

0-1k I guess. I thought it was 0 but I forgot about the times I have flipped Crazy Mike for like 50-100 and the time he hustled me for 100 in the "how many chips do I have?" game. And playing Chinese for 25/point against Roc while we wait for people to come back to the game. I guess I might be a favorite there but I've been so tired when we played I didn't really bother to look at his cards to see if he set his hands well or not.

0 blackjack/table games though because I'm a nit.

I forgot about last week when I sat at 8/16 without looking at my cards.

I guess it might be closer to 1-3k.

Not that this is news, but a lot of people who win tons of money at poker are long term losing poker players, and absolutely awful gamblers/investors. Many guys have won major WPT tournaments then lost huge amounts of it on baccarat or sports betting.

However, there are several pit games (not baccarat), that can be beaten or are almost neutral EV if you are proficient enough. Not a bad way to earn comps while having a good time with your friends.

This scale need to go much higher, and I'd wager my losses vs just about anyone in this forum.
