Recently moved into a house with two other colleagues in order to save money for a year. They’re both early 20’s and fun to be around. So it’s a Tuesday evening and the three of us decide to do a shot to commemorate the occasion of moving in. Earlier that day I had blasted off 500 on an online casino and was looking to relax. After we all take the shot I decide to have another couple beers as we continue to chat and eventually I make the decision that I’m going to go to the casino to play a few shoes of blackjack. I don’t work the next day, however I do have a management meeting with all levels of managers at my workplace as well as a new director, so I have it in my mind that I’m not going to drink any more. I'm a junior employee, so this meeting is a big deal.

So I drive to the casino, and pretty well immediately lose the new 500 that I brought. I was a little pissed at my run of cards, and decide to go to the bar. They serve a local beer I love and I think its just what I need. I Grab a pint, and pretty well straight away hit the ATM to pull out another 500. After all, swings happen, and I think I can win it back. I take that 500 to the table and you guessed it, it’s gone in no time.

At this point, I’m a little buzzed but pretty pissed off in general that I’m getting so beat up. I go to the ATM and grab another 500, bringing my day to 2k in on a Tuesday. I grab another beer and go to the table. This time, I’m starting to grind my stack up, and begin to win. The server keeps coming and coming with beers and a short while later I’m pretty wasted, but sitting with almost 3k in chips in front of me.

Midnight rolls around and I decide that I better get going so that I can make the meeting the next day, but as I’m walking out who do I see but my old love the roulette table.

Bet 500 spread around on the first spin… Ball lands in 34. Complete brick.

Okay… Bet another 500 spread around… Ball comes 9. Brick.

Well, I guess roulette isn’t my game tonight. I look over and I see a different variant of blackjack. It’s the ****ty low limit 6:5 payout BJ using the auto shufflers not the shoe as I had been on before but what do I care, I’m hot and decide I’m going to win. Sit down, check change a purple chip and in 10 minutes it’s gone.

At this point I decide I just better leave, and take my remaining 1k or so to the cashier and exchange it for bills. With those chips I’m only down 500 on the night, and even though I'm pissed I better just go.

So as I’m stumbling out, I pass by the high limit slots and just feel the money burning a hole in my pocket. I start having visions of hitting a quick 2k payout and walking out a winner.

Needless to say I pissed away every dime I had and hit nothing at all.
I stumble outside to the cabs and get a ride home, leaving my car at the casino.

In the morning I’m so hungover I’m puking my guts out. I had to uber back to pick up my car and drive to this meeting I can’t miss. Pulled over a couple times on the way there, and eventually sat through it all hoping no one talked to me while also wondering if I smelled like alcohol.

Had such a brutal day I promised myself I’d recognize that I was at rock bottom and smarten up.

Went back a few days later and got smacked for almost another 2k on an insanely bad couple shoes.

One thing im trying and it seems to be helping me get my fix without losing a lot of money. I have been just going to the casino on Saturday with just 100-200 in cash and leaving everything else home (1.5 hours away). I play 1/2 no limit and so super low stakes Ultimate Texas Holdem and maybe some VP. I am 3/4 with leaving up to about 350 and when I lose the risk is minimal. I know when you are betting $200 a hand in BJ its impossible to think about doing this but it's working for me after I took some time off.

Wow this is dude has been this weird for over a year

@dm07ca get help now. It only gets worse.

HOLY **** PR IS ALIVE

49ers rocked my world. I think they have got me pregnant by covering the spread...

Pretty grim one here tbf...

Was watching a live roulette table bring in like 10 black numbers so said to my mate ''If the next one is black, i'm going to put £1,000 down on the number after being red.''
Obvs the next was black so being a person of my word went and jammed a grand down.

Turned out I had got the wrong table (they were back to back) - The table I wanted dropped in red, the one I put it on came in black.

Vile.

Anyone play short deck holdem on acr??its a game for true gamblers, its NL unlike PLO, you can overbet jam pre, gets alot of action, and have a good chance of winning. Im up over 10 buyin in 2 days playing this. I learn this game watching that trinton poker on youtube. Sucks that not alot of midstakes tables running. i know im just a fish on a heater, but whatever its money.

I treat poker as another form of gambling than a grind. I mostly play PLO, but online these guys have some kind of system and software tracking that if youre in it to gamble, you will drop on your neck. shortdeck is the way to go!

You better thank Jackie Bradley for that game lol.

Nice.

Why are you idiots talking about random sports bets in this thread? There are a few posters who have destroyed this thread that was once a 2+2 legacy. You guys should sit in the corner, stare at the walls and contemplate what you have done.

Was about to post the exact same thing yesterday but refrained. These cretins have turned a legendary thread into an embarrassment. Better to let something die than murder it slowly

I have to agree. This thread has been one of the absolute best things I've encountered online in general. The posts have been legendary and have always made me laugh.


I keep coming back for more, but alas I only find these dry dull sports betting posts. I'd rather read 2NL bad beat stories.

Say the posters who did not post ****. This thread would have one post a month

Omg I won't post a degen story because some one posted there picks lol

Stfu post degen story and stop being anal about posts , dem dam kids posting there none degen posts I remember when we waited six months without a post they were the good degen thread days

Every one go out and lose loads money so cry babies can get there degen story fix while they exercise correct bank roll management...

Is there anyone remaining who hasn't got singasong on ignore?

you, apparently.

I just degenned off about $150 on mega millions lottery tickets. Can I use my ONE TIME! to win?
