    What's the fastest you've run out of your session BR?

    I had 30 units and I lasted about 45 minutes.

    I've hit a session stop loss in a very short time, but I've never exhausted my session BR. I sometimes use a stop loss for reasons specific to avoiding unwanted attention, but even then, I always have sufficient money available to complete a shoe. If your bankroll isn't huge, just take it all. Busting a session bankroll is completely preventable and it costs you money. You should never let it happen.

    Seven hands. Paradise Island 1979.
    Seven day cruise- NY to Nassau.
    Worked all summer and myself and three co-workers took a singles cruise last week of august before heading back to our various schools. One guy had a fool-proof system. Bet $5. If you win or push, stay at $5 .If you lose, raise your bet to $10.. Ect, ect.
    Must have played a lose again, lose again. lose one more time.couple hundred hands on the boat, never failed once.
    Get to Paradise Island. Lose. Lose again. Lose a third time. Down $35,betting $40. Lose. down 75, betting $80. Lose. Only have $50 left so i bet $40. Lose. Bet my last ten. Lose. It was a long walk back to the boat.
    Let me die in my sleep like my Grandfather.

    It was my first time gambling. It sounded good and it worked every time in practice. Getting my ass kicked like that kept me out of casinos for almost twenty years. Then a chance encounter with Jerry Patterson changed my life forever.
