My record is 22... but I would be interested in how many losses in a row.
I've had 15 consecutive losing sessions. zg

That's how I approach it as well. One overall bankroll and one lifetime session.

Define session. I sit down at blackjack table in casino X. Count goes negative quickly and I am up and move to a new table, new pit after only 5 hands. I play half a shoe at this second table exiting again at predetermined negative count. I do this 2 more times in casino X for a total of 35 minutes. I then move to casino next door or across the street for similar routine. I return home 6 hours later having played 6 casinos, 21 different tables. Did I play 21 sessions (different tables), 6 sessions (different casinos), or 1 session (6 hour day)??
The point being different people define session differently, so this poll is really comparing apples to oranges and has no real merit.

You Are Right. I Should of Defined Session
For myself, I consider a session to be one day of blackjack play. However, if I play two different casinos in one day I will break that down into two sessions. In the Midwest, I don't think I ever played any more than two casinos in one day simply because the Indian casinos are so far apart. My day ends when I go asleep for the night. So its very possible I may play 4 hours of blackjack and be down $500, then take a dinner break and maybe rest for an hour or two and then come back and play another 6 hours and win $800 for a winning day of $300 which goes in my records. When I play Wendover, I consider the town to be one big casino and only figure out my winnings or loss at the end of the day, when in reality I might be moving from one casino to another in less than a hours play.

I Provided A Line For You
Since your session isn't over yet, we don't know if you won or lost. I guess you will have to answer "Never Had A Winning Session.":laugh:

Easy Answer?
Let's assume you have a 55% chance of winning a session.
raise to the power of X to determine your chances of winning multiple sessions in a row.
an example:
.55 ^ 3 = .16 or 16% chance of winning 3 sessions in a row.
The longer your session the more likely you will be ahead and all play is continuous with breaks being artificial.
