Just did Vegas or should I say Vegas did me!

First things first:

Trip highs: Single deck and Double deck all downtown from main street to 10 street and Fremont.
SATURDAY morning: Five hours total play; Good to deep pen. ro6-ro7! Heads up. Could not stop! 100+units up
SUNDAY morning: three hours at play: 45 units more profit!
MONDAY morning: One bad game lost ten units, 15 losing hands in a row! I still made 30 units profit for the day.
TUESDAY morning: A DD game with pen down to 20 cards or less. Lasted an hour and I made 10 units until MA and PA IOWA farm sat down and started betting three spots. Then Mr Smelly sat down and burped garlic on me. I figured I should leave after a plus six true count win and two 25 dollar bets on the table. Made 20 units later at another single deck location.
Total wins on single/dd:210 units. Great time huh? Read on.

TRIP lows:
SATURDAY afternoon to 2am: Six deckers played 8 hours sluged it out. Lost 154 units!
SUNDAY Evening 5 hours of play six deckers came back within 40 units of breaking my BR even.:(
MONDAY evening: Six deckers lost 100 units more. Shit!
TUESDAY afternoon: Manna from heaven I won over 120 unit win. I was still short 13 units to break my BR even. Got a nice comp for three in the mexican restuarant and ate with two freinds. We ate like grizzilies to eat up the comp slip. And I mean LV grizzilies!
TUESDAY night late: We decided to do hailmary plays. Bad thing to do with limited time. Wonged and wonged and wonged. Lost 60 units. SO sad so bad. Hey its card counting.

...AND to top it off $100 loss to vid poker and $100 loss in a five dollar slot (Wheel of Fortune). OK OK so I need to go to gam anon!

Moral of the story: Dont gamble tired. I started hallucinating. Dont play with three or more at the six deckers. Get up early for heads up single/dd games. Try to wong its better. And have fun! The ploppies were there in droves!!!!!!!!!

Thanks for the Report

LTC,

Sounds like you did well on SD and DD. Hindsight being 20-20, maybe you should have stayed away from the 6 deckers?

Re: Thanks for the Report

Single deck play would have been great all day but due to exposure, value and the ability to keep heads up play we had to move on. I love six deck when you hit a positive deck from the start you can ride it to the end. I actually had a heads on game on a shoe with one deck cut off. All I will say without giving too much discription is that I saw, I conquered, I made a lot of money. The only thing that was noticeable was that several stores were really having good deep discounts on pens. Get there early.
