Anyone have favorite songs that they like when they win? My favorites are:
1. A lovely day.. Bill Withers
2. Break it down.. Stones
3. Cuts you up .. Peter Murphy
4. Comin around again.. Carly Simon
5. Rough God goes Riding.. Van Morrison
6. Count me in... Gary Lewis and the Playboys
Loosely speaking these could be called fight songs. We are all like little Davids fight the Goliath casinos. Modern day Robin Hoods.:cool2:
Awesome song . . . love it . . .
I don't have fight songs per se, but I do have songs that I have really come to like as they were associated with my largest wins. The most memorable one was a while ago in Vegas . . . I know this story may ramble a bit but go with me on this one
I was out by the pool with my girlfriend and some of her friends kicking back after breakfast. They started getting silly and when I had had about enough, told her I was going in to play a short session. So I walked to the casino in my flip-flops and boardshorts, damp T-shirt, smelling like sunscreen, with a session's worth of slightly soggy bills. Sat at a 6D table with one other player and a fresh shuffle. First couple decks were nondescript, and then, in a matter of a few hands, it happened . . . out of nowhere, the shoe of dreams. Count went into the stratosphere, spread to two hands of 75% max bet each, and I just kept winning . . . nearly every hand a 20, BJ, 10, or 11, with every double working for me. I never needed either insurance or surrender. It stayed this way until the end of the shoe, with the count gradually decreasing.
At the end of it I had a mountain of green and black with a stray purple here and there in front of me, lit a smoke to enjoy the moment, with Jordin Sparks' "Tattoo" playing in the background. I have loved that song ever since, and am comfortable enough with my masculinity to admit it
