Winning Streak
Winning streaks
happen the same as losing streaks, only not as often. Paying attention
to the streaks and trends in gambling can pay off big,
especially if you're gambling slot on line because of
the advantage they offer over real life
casino slot machines.
There is a saying
which I am quite fond that goes "luck is a short-term
marriage of prepared meets opportunity". I couldn't
agree more and if you think about it the whole theory
makes perfect sense. People who get pictures of once in
a lifetime random happenings were lucky enough to get
that picture because they were in the right place at the
right time (opportunity) and unlike those around them,
they had their camera with them (prepared). Winning
streaks will happen but the question remains what will
you do with that stretch of time when it comes around?
I suggest it is
wise to stay alert for when that winning streak is
coming to an end because a few bad bets combined with an
increased amount in wagers can wipe out what you've
gained very quickly. I'm not condemning gamblers who are
brave. Quite the opposite as you'll see in coming pages.
I just think it is that important for a player to
remember to stay aware and not let themselves fall into
a false security when they are winning. It is very easy
to do and yes, I have a story to tell about that very
subject.
When i first
started playing on line I visited a no download casino
which I can't remember its name (now defunct anyway) and
I hit a stretch of good fortune while playing blackjack
that accumulated a fifty dollar buy-in to just short of
a thousand dollars. Having just arrived on the scene of
online casinos I was lulled into a false sense of
security because I had started out doing so well.
I naturally have a
progressive approach to gambling but my
blackjack strategy is extremely aggressive. I
basically play double or nothing over and over again,
only pulling back wins about a third of the time. It
adds up quick and according to my strategy you're
suppose to back down to the minimum bet after you lose.
Well long story shortened is that I was far enough up I
thought I could afford a few more bets at the point I
had reached which was about a hundred bucks a hand and I
proceeded to lose about half of my winnings back in
about 4 hands. After that I never felt like I had enough
to merit cashing-out so I ended up playing it all back.
I lost my money gained from the winning segment of that
streak in a very short losing streak. Welcome to online
gambling.
