Ever had a dream day?

I wondered if any of us had a dream day when it seemed you couldn't lose and everything you did or touched turned to gold. It usually happens on your birthday if you are lucky enough to be in the casino on it. blackchipjim

My last trip to Vegas was unusually smooth. Very few losing sessions, even very few scary moments intra-session, and a few big wins.

It's really, really fun when it happens. But at the same time, I think it makes it hard not to become too cocky on future trips. It would be much more emotionally stabilizing to just grind out small wins without the big swings.

my last trip was incredible.

in the first round of cards 12 more lows than highs came out. this in a 6D shoe. of the 7 or so shoes i sat through, 5 hit TC = +4 early. it was like christmuka.

everyone was winning hand after hand.

i didn't win a TON (14 units in 1+hour), but was more excited than i have been in a long time, especially after several mediocre trips as of late....

I had a session about 2 months ago where I won $8K with a $25 unit.

Last week, I wonged into a shoe at +4 TC and did well. I stayed for the next shoe, and flat bet 1 unit the whole shoe as the count never went anywhere. I only lost one hand the whole shoe. The dealer even commented "you should have bet like you did the last shoe." I replied saying I thought my luck was about to turn, but it never did.

never did have a dream day. :cry: thats my own fault because i would always suspend play after getting about one standard deviation up.:rolleyes:
that'll change in the future however as now since i'm going to be making less trips to the casino i'll be playing longer sessions when i do play.
best i ever made out was +50 units on a session.

Dream day

I walked into a riverboat casino with $300. I bought in for $100 and never had to dig again. End of the day I was up over 100 units. No heat, whatsoever. Even got a comp from the PB. I don't remember ever doing this well, since.

I had a spectacular series of runs where I never had a losing session from Thanksgiving until President's day (almost 3 months)

In one night in Atlantic City I celebrated a 175 unit win :).

That was my best of the run.. but I have to say it wa fun while it lasted.

3 days

About a year ago on a trip to Vegas. My first 3 days it seemed I just could not lose. I played in 11 casinos and won at blackjack in 10 of them and several were big wins. In the one casino where I lost at blackjack my loss was small and I also had $100 free play for their machines. So I put a $50 into the machine, plus the free play and am playing one of those new (not a good game really) super times play things. Running a little behind the multiplyer comes up as an 8 and I am dealt 3 to a Royal, playing 10 times quarters. About the 7th line hits the royal for $8,000.
Had a blackjack hand on the strip shoe game. Get a pair 6's vs a dealer 3 and split. Land up getting 2 more sixes and get three doubles. I double 10 and get a 10. I double 10 and get an ace. I double 9 and get a 4 and land up with 21 on the hand that I could not double on. Win all as dealer busts but also important what had been a moderatly positive count had continued up nicely and as I raised my bets just continued winning.

After 3 days I was up $7,600 in VP and over $20,000 in blackjack with no backoffs and minimal heat. On my 4th day, I drop $2,000 very quickly and though it makes no math sense, just slow played or hardly played my last several hours in town. That one trip accounted for about 75% of my blackjack win for the whole year.

I had a dream day once. I can sum it up with a quote that is sort of an inside joke for supercoolmancool.

"Barney Town's getting bigger!" :grin:

just had my dream day

Came with $600 on me with more in the reserves and turned it into $2600 using my hit and run strategy. $125 of it roughly was due to me hitting 4 of a kind on a video poker machine :)
