What a trip I had today. Played for about 12 hours.
It started out very annoying. Wonging around, losing here and there, seeming like I could never get a good count, and every time I walked away from a bad one I was a couple of chips short. What's worse was the casino was more crowded than I've ever seen it and even getting a seat was a challenge. I backcounted and backlined a BS player and got hit for about 30 units. Really annoying.
Then I sat down at a table, and not only couldn't I lose, I couldn't leave! I don't like to camp out at a table, gives them too much time to get a fix on me. But it was the damnedest thing I've ever experienced- in 4 hours of play I did not see a count low enough for me to leave the table.
And what's more, was this English redhead next to me implying I should come to her room with her? I sure took it that way. Wow what a night! (Of course I would never do such a thing, the only kind of "naturals" I am looking for in a casino are the kind that pay 3:2.) I was trying to analyze this session in Monkeyspace and what might be going on. The easiest way to get abnormal distributions of counts like I was seeing is to reverse the count. Was I subconsciously reversing the count because I was getting distracted by a girl? Was I doing it because I was frustrated by all the bad counts I was seeing during the day? It was impossible to find food without an hour-long line it was so crowded- was hunger working me over? So I really bore down, just wanting to make sure the strenuous playing condidtions weren't screwing me up, and it looks like they weren't.
And the results showed. Between my stack, ratholed chips and chips I sold to players for cash, I was up 101 green. And I still didn't see a count bad enough to leave. Overcome by fatigue and hunger, I left on the next negative count of any magnitude that I saw. It was a very rough session, but certainly one I would like to repeat.
