    Mr Boxing Fan - all the sarcasm and flaming aside, do not do this in a casino with real money because you will lose it all. What happens when you have to make a bet to chase your losses that the table limits will not allow?

    Seneca/ Salamanca

    Ploppies and addicts can't resist whether the game is coming hand dealt, CSM or the barrel of a gun. CSM's sure do shake counters out of the weeds. Seneca has been garbage for years. It is still there.

    A funny ploppy wanted to buy insurance on my twenty.

    I don't think this is the case with this but I have seen (and maybe done) things like this where I am the small bettor and a big bettor has a good chance at winning with some perceived dependence on my play. "gimme $50 and play my hand for me". Maybe he wanted you to kick him some money in...

    thinking of confronting the casino

    There are two schools of thought, one is to go easy on a game and milk it for a long time or to go in two barrells blasting and take it down in one sitting. So as Flash said, greed is a factor. In a recent post you made over 2000 units with a lot of play. If you are playing in just a couple...
