This experience was a first for me. About halfway through the 8D shoe the RC (zen) went up to 40+. I lost. The count continued to climb. Soon my max bet was out. Again I lost. And again. And again. And again. I lost about 6 straight hands. I was $1200 down in 5 - 10 minutes. I was gonna cry. I wanted to quit. I thought, "OMG it took me 10 minutes to lose what took me 40 hours to gain..." :cry: The dealer commented, "Woah there, slow down buddy!" The other players looked at me like I was a fool. I felt SO MUCH pressure to quit and walk away! Fortunately, the TC remained high for the rest of the shoe and I didn't give up. The blackjack gods granted me mercy and I won the remaining hands. I walked away from the table with about $1600. $400 up! What a relief! Now I really understand why I have such a big BR!
I switched tables and ended up walking out of the casino up 105 units. :laugh:
A message to all my fellow newb counters: MAKE SURE YOU GOT THAT BIG BR AND DON'T GIVE UP!! :whip::whip:
