Having a brief run of good variance and luck at a variety of casino games including my favorite (poker). Personally, I have a hard time just risking it all, but I like to pick spots in the riskiest gambles; budget (from $20-200). Prefer to employ this after I already have a profit at one game or another.

Quick craps - Budget $100-200. Looking for a table with field bet patterns. I play martindales. Minimum bet, win, same bet. Lose, double.

Roulette - Even money or 2-1 spots. Martindales

Slots - Pot shots at $1-5 slots and others.

Poker - Up $400, heading to the dungeon at Grand Vic for some 10-20 Omaha 8 with half kill to lose it all back.
Just a bit of my craziness for now.
Geezer blue collar redneck, lifetime grinder. Get my kicks on Twitter.

Well "da team" won a hundred each last night, no thanks to me. Played 4 hours of O8, full ring game, and they come to gamble I tell ya! Some of the hands played aren't listed in the Hutchinson point count system. http://www.omahaplanet.com/omaha-hi-...and-selection/
Pot sizes range from an average $200 up to a grand. My 4 hundo stack never got any higher. Caught a steel wheel when all in and only got 3/4th. My brain fart hand: Slight frustrated, but wanting to mix it up, raised to 20 utg with 2c-3c-3s-4d. Flop K-K-Q (2clubs) I bet 20, I bet 40, one caller left. The guy who already had 3 buy-ins. I shut down on river. His pair of sixes scooped my threes. The game is mad. #addicted. Split some slots with the neighbor to min cash. Got any stories? Love to hear them.

Jesus, Arky... Your line screamed AAxx. He'd have had to fold to a river bet. But that is being results-oriented. The moral of the story is, ask yourself what kind of board lets you scoop before you even enter the hand with your cards, let alone raise. Your pf hand really wants people to come along, hoping a low board comes with an Ace in the flop.
I know you said you wanted to mix it up, but UTG is a dangerous place to pull that kind of stunt. With those cards, consider that play in late position when all others have folded. Maybe raise (A4)5K from the button when 4 or 5 limp to you. Those are the kinds of nonstandard plays that make folks uncomfortable. But notice the common denominator here is position.
That said, if people call double barrels with 66xx on that board, hoping to hit their 2 outer to the under full, I may need to get out to the GVC soon....

If that's your read, why double barrel in the first place? :banghead:

See you soon. Can I get 25% of you when you go? Be fun to play at the same time if you're up for that? BTW - ain't losing no sleep over it.

LOL. Actually, a friend of mine went to play it for the first time last month and claims he took 900 out of the game. That's the guy you want to stake! I am thinking I'd like to get out there before the month is up. What days so you go?
