hi
I like going to the Casino. It has just recent become a hobby of mine, to spend a few hours there now and then. You meet some intersting people...
I prefer to play BlackJack and Roulette. Sometimes I win, sometimes I lose. I guess I break even in the long run and I never play for too much money.
Just wanted to share. If anyone has any good strategies for these games to share, please do
Love to you all
Newborn
I don't know nothin' 'bout birthin' no babies ... er, I mean gambling.
Just want to say Hi and that you've been missed for the past 2 months.
Good to have you back.
Syl
hahaha
Dearest Syl, thanks sweetie
How are you doing?
I'm happy and in love . However my boy friend lives 1600 kilometers away so a big change for us is necessary to be together and that's what keeps my mind busy these days. Shall I move, quit job etc or shall he? (he has 2 small daugters where he lives). On one hand I long for a family of my own (I'm 36), but I'm also protective of my freedom and independance. But we can't have it all, can we? Well, time will tell I guess...
Things were easier at 20...
Big hug

I think you should move to where he is.
Might be too much of an upheaval for the little ones to leave familiar surroundings.
If you don't like it there, you can always move back.
I'm glad you've found someone.
I hope it works out just fine.

Thanks I'm sure it will work out in one way or the other...however he lives out in nowhere...and I'm a city girl, not sure I'll be happy there and what shall I work with? may questions
But of course if we want to be together and it feels right we will find a way
Are you ok?
Are you ok?
Fine, dear one.
I'm gearing up to begin online classes toward a degree in History.
I'm so scared!
Syl
You scared!!!!!!????
You will do just fine, I'm sure
Sounds interesting too.
I don't play roulette in Vegas. The odds are too far in the house's favor. Blackjack, however, is a beatable game. For basic strategy I recommend Edward O. Thorpe's classic, "Beat the Dealer." While this book is very old, nearly every new book I have read on blackjack still refers back to Thorpe's work.
Beat the Dealer also goes into card counting, and how to adjust bets according to the count. However, while card counting is not illegal, most casinos frown on this activity, and will ask you to leave if they suspect you of card counting. A banishment from a casino will only happen if you are wagering big money. A guy like me that bets $5 to $25 dollars a hand is not going to get noticed.
Some of the better books can be found at Gambler's Book Shop. Google them or visit their store in Vegas.
My games of choice are craps, blackjack and football (NFL & college).
