1. You can weather the storms when things are bad and ride them out until your luck turns around

2. You can bet much higher amounts, and the losses don’t sting as much, because, as I said above, you can ride the storm out.

I won a few really big hands, I played €100 on the hard 6 and €100 on the big 6 and won, although to be honest, I lost that bet more than I won, but all it takes it winning it 1 out 4 times for a profit. My total today was as high as €4,659 and as low as €3,000. The odd thing was I was determined not to let it get below €4,000 but then I hit a losing streak and really didn’t want to stop after a big loss, so I tried recouping my bet, but that took longer than I thought. When I crawled back up to €3,500 – I decided to take a shot at quickly getting back to €4000 and so I played a €500 chip on the come out roll. I rolled a “6″ heart pounding in my chest, it took about 5 rolls, but I managed to get a  4,2 roll for a much needed win that put me back over €4,000.

Here is the screenshot of the €500 bet

After that I bounced up and down, playing more conservatively than before, and finally called it a day. All in all I would say it was a succesful day, I started out with €3,480 and ended with a total of €4,038

The nice thing about finally having a bankroll to play with is that every now and then I can do something crazy, make a large wager and really help bump me over the top.

After a day or two of playing and hovering between €1,500 and €2,700 I decided that it was time to make a huge move. I decided that I would drop €100 on the hard 6 bet, and immediatley rolled a 7 and lost. Determined to stick with it, I tried again a few hands later, this time on the Hard 8. I bet €100 on the come out roll, (which was and €100 on both the Big 8 and the Hard 8. After a few nerve wracking rolls, the dice came in my favor and I saw the double 4′s. Total win was €1,421.40. What an amazing feeling!
Another nice part about that win is it puts me at €110 in the black, in total so far I’ve deposited €3,370 and now I have €3,480.

I don’t know what happened, all of the sudden I can’t win at craps anymore. I’m finding it tough to adjust to having a smaller balance to play with. A few weeks ago, if I bet 40-50 Euros on a hand, and lost it was no big deal, but now that I had to start over, losing a few hands in a row like that is a real killer. That’s basically what happened to me, I was trying to keep my bets low, until I built up a winning balance, but it was hard. I tried laying bets on teh hard sixes, but I kept rolling 7′s.

I think I lost 5 straight hands, and when you’re laying 40 on the table, thats a quick loss of €200.00, and I couldn’t recover from that. Three times I rolled double 4′s, and I kept kicking myself for deciding to bet on the double 3′s. Of course, I have a sneaking suspicion that if I bet on 4′s, I would have gotten the double 3′s. It’s just Murpheys Law, and thats how it was. So I started out the day with €505.10 and I walked away from the table with just €87.90.

I need to take a break from playing craps, since I’m doing something wrong here. I’m going to head back to the roulette table and see if my luck will change there. One thing I learned is when you’re tired, it’s not a good idea to play the online casino because you’re judgement, or least my judgement, isn’t worth crap. I can’t guarentee that I would have played better or ended up with better results had I been more awake, but I’d like to think so.

 I was playing craps, and I felt like I graduated from the beginners level, so I tried betting on the Hardaway Bets. These are “extra” bets that you can bet on the next roll of the dice, or whether you’ll roll doubles, the odds are anywhere from 5-1 to 31-1 depending on the odds. I plan on making a video that will go over the Hardaway Bets in more detail in the coming weeks, so stay tuned for that.

Early on I rolled double 4’s on a €10 bet and won €100, at this point I was up around €130, and feeling really good. I’m not really sure what happened next, I kept laying bets, at some point I was dropping €40 to €50 per hand, and crapping out. Next thing I knew I was down to around €30. I was so annoyed with myself that I kept betting. I figured either I would hit big or lose it all. I was up and down for a while, hovering between €100 and €30, until I finally lost it all.

What happened was obvious, I got to emotional, once I started losing, I tried doubling my bets trying to recoup my losses and just ended up losing bigger. If you want to succeed and make money playing at an online casino you need to check your emotions at the door. This is easier said than done, I’ve had two miserable days playing casino games, knowing that I would blog about it, and still made the same mistake.

I will deposit more money, and hopefully I will have learned my lesson and come out of this a winner.
