    Started off the day losing $100 playing bj, pissed because I'm down a pretty good amount this week, I decided to make a NBA parlay. I wanted to bet a 3 teamer for $60 celtics 1st half, heat 1st half, lakers first half. But I was for some reason nervous about the celts, so I laid off and only made a $40 2 teamer heat 1st half, lakers first half thinking if it cashed i'd atleast get my money back. So it ended up cashing so I went back to the casino to play a little more bj. Bought in for 100 on the 5 dollar table and was going back and forth for like an hour, at my height i was up like 30 bucks, eventually was back at 100. I got bored so i left my chips on the table, and went out to the car to burn one real quick. Came back in the dealer was annoying the shit out of me, some lady in her mid 30s who would keep stopping in the middle of hands to talk about stupid bs. Ended up losing 2 25 dollar bets in a row, then a 50 dollar bet. I was pretty pissed at myself for being such an idiot, i shoulda just gabbed my hundo and left. So I had like 85 bucks left on me, sat down on a vp machine, nickel 5 play progressive with the jackpot at a little over 8k, lost 20 pretty fast. Went over played some video keno dropped another 40, so im down to my last 25. I had an old school 20 dollar bill and the machine wouldnt take it, so i went to the cashier exchanged the bill. Went back to the machine starting play 5 spot keno for a dollar with the pay out being 810, got down to 10 bucks and decided to play 50 cents a hand, got down to 1.50 and I was really irritated cuz i was going to drop 185 bucks and as I said earlier, im already having a pretty shitty week, and then BOOM 5 outta 5 405 dollars. Couldnt have been happier, finally went my way and keeps me alive for the week.

    Nice job!

    Last week I was playing Craps at Harrahs in Chester. Down to my last $44 I had 22 of it on the pass line, point was a 4, and I had $22 odds. Next roll was a 4! And from there I went up and cashed out $1300.

    wow thats awesome, musta felt great. I had a similar story earlier this year. I went into the casino with a hundred dollars, long story short got it down to the last 20. Went to the dollar wheel of fortune, got the 20 down to 2, bet the 2 so i had 0 left in the machine, and I got my a spin. Now as its spinning im saying if it hits 100 or more im outta here because i would have been lucky to get my money back. Well it hit for 100 and as soon as it did i thought, hell with it ill go do 10 pulls on the megabucks machine, 3 dollars a pull, well started messing around on that got up like 60 got it back down to like 110 and then BOOM, double diamond, double diamond, im thinking to myself shit be anything, be a single bar, whatever i dont care, then BAM another double diamond. 6K!!! It was a great feeling.

    Best Comeback for me was at our local bar poker tourney, $100 buy in and rebuys, payout was real nice.
    I was short stacked, and small blind, had K/10, I pushed all in thinking BB would fold, he had A/K and insta-called.  I lost, but had 1 chip left...  I waited and waited before I threw my 1 chip in, then pushed with Pocket 2's, won the hand, then won next hand, the following hand Pocket K's pushed had a caller, flopped set, and went on fire, ended up winning the tourney, 1st paid approx $1,500, give or take a little.
