I'm sorrry, but I have the german version, and I don't remember which chapter or year it was. IIRC, he describes the parents of one guy or girl (minor character) at the ETA with it.
Though, it's more than worth it to read the whole book (or read it again).

Just got done grinding a 12 hour session at the casino and profited about 1k. Came back to the room and started throwing playing cards into the trash can from about 10 feet away. Starting betting with my buddy $50 every card we could make into the trash can. Ended up down around $900 and lost damn near all the money I just won in poker.

Will contribute with one of many degen story, thining after is quite funny.
At the time i live and work in London with a strong attraction to roulette games. Beginning of the month (same date of my wage hit the bank account) I go to the casino as usual and start play the roulette machines that runs on the live table results. I'm playing for 2 or more hours (withdrawn the 1K max) until the good run kicks and bang in 20 mins I reach the 6.000£ balance. The balance attract the pitboss that after looking at it goes to grab some free meals and stuff to help me go back to casino in the future. 5 minutes pass by he comes back but my balance is 30£, I lost them all playing 1K per spin.
His face while he is giving me the vouchers says it all, I did my long 40 minutes walk because I didn't had the money for transport.

memo to all in NJ.. do not play the online casino. Ive dabbled a bunch of times over the past few months and have NEVER won... its hilarious because even in an actual casino you win sometimes.. online you just lose every single time.

+1 on the online NJ casino BS..

The amount of BJ's the dealer gets when you pull a 20 is absolutely insane. Always seems to come right after you press your bet as well.

So glad I banned myself.

Kinda funny tho while I was at Ceasars over the weekend and im trying to get some cash out off my CC and 4 security guards come over and escort me out like im a criminal. NJ still needs to get their shyt together with all this online nonsense and allow an ONLINE only ban and not online/brick and mortar. I was took ****ed up or I prob would have put up a fight. Guess security doesn't have much to do when its 7am and a blizzard outside. I was one of maybe 10 people in the entire casino. Really creepy and degen feeling.

They probably escorted you out because of something you did. Have you written them bad checks in the past? Maybe you didn't pay back some cash advances?

@clever

They escorted me out because I was on their self exclusion list and CET employees are a bunch or morons.

I filled out forms for online exclusion but got banned for both online and land based. The only reason I was even in the casino was because my friend had a room there and did not feel like driving home in the bad weather.

yeah thats bs.. i banned myself from online casino.. obviously not poker.

i would always have to end my session with a round number .. like OCD about it.. for instance say there was 1267 in my account.. id play 5 dollar blackjack until there was either 1275/1300 or 1250 in the account and stop.. i did this dozens of times and would end up at the lower plateau... its like how? ive played a million hands of blackjack in ac and vegas and to be totally honest i have won a bunch of money doing it.. lose more than i win obviously because its gambling but the dealer in live blackjack never REPEATEDLY kills you. you will get killed but ive killed the dealer a dozen times too.. online you have no chanceeee

i once killed it over about a month time at a "shady" pokersite (pitbullpoker)..people starting claiming i was a bot/superuser, because i made the weirdest plays and allmost never lost a pot (mainly shoving the river)..i got so bored with it that i broke my silence with a string of l0l0ll0l0ll0ll0lll00 to add to cofusion and the claims i was a bot...but it backfired ..my account got frozen..i had to answer loads of dumb questions about why i played several hands in weird ways..

long story short..took allmost 2 yrs to get my money and was banned for playing there..even tho i did nothing wrong

side brag: i never deposited there it took me a year to get from 0 to 50 and 1 month from 50 to 1.5k..im guessing that added to the sites respons for claiming i was somehow cheating them
