I had a year absent of many real swings in either direction. Had one losing day of more than 5 grand, $5600, which even that was made up of 6 smaller losing sessions. No real big loss.

$500.50

Am I suppose to floor, round, truncate, stat round?

[RS]

Biggest win was approx. $800.

[Ace-King]

A $10,400 loss in a 3 hour session. The average max bet was $400 This happened on a double deck game with 75% penetration.

$1027.50 spreading red up to black. It was painful.

I had five losses over $1,000 in 2012. In fact I had 2 that came in at $1,379 so I tied for my biggest loss twice.

Had two days where I lost $1000. Had no days where I won $1000
But.... I had nine days where I won $500 or more and only two where I lost $500 or more, including the days I cracked $1,000.
On the other hand, I had 29 days where I neither won or lost $100. As I only played 64 days, almost half the time was a complete wash.

Ha ha whew... Cannot wait until my bank is big enough that I get to be in that 30k+ catergory at some point. I started counting this year and have only been up to the casinos 6 times. My first time out was a 340 loss though. I have not had any more like it though.

Spreading 25-2x100 on double deck 75% pen with two days of a 2-3k loss.

Had 3 losses since keeping records 12/1/12. -$800, -$1000, -$1600. These were offset by wins of $880, $1425 and $1700. As of today for the month I am up $4,560. I lost 1 day to travel and 2 for holidays. I should make another $2k before year end if everything stays status quo. Just began to ramp up to black and green/ black. Was playing red earlier in month. So EV should trend better in 2013. (I hope)

You think that's the way it works, hun? Just like a paycheck.

I reported more than $10,000 in the poll, but on second thought, I left Vegas just before year end this year, so it was really a 2011 loss. I had three weeks of all wins, then the dramatic loss just before leaving. I played a $50 min game and hit a plus count right off which turned disastrous. I left that casino and played $25 min games with better pen at other locations, recouping a few thousand, but my total loss was still more than $10,000, which is only 20 max bets if you stop and think about it.
