ReKO Kid: Just had one of THOSE trips

[ReKO Kid]

Just got back from one of THOSE trips that reminds you just how ugly fluctuation can be and wanted to vent to people who understand!

In two days I lost an amount equal to negative 2.5 standard deviations!!!! UGH!!!! During one session I lost every single bet I put out in every single mega-plus count. It seemed almost too ugly to be remotely possible.

In one particularly memorable shoe, I lost 14 bets and double downs in a ROW off the top of the shoe with the count going plus throughout.

I double-checked my math, I was within expectation, but just about at the bottom of the barrel...

Friends, this was NOT my trip. Thanks for understanding!

""""""" Do you recall if, while playing in the two above mentioned shoes, whether the number of players at the table increased, decreased or remained the same? Just call me wagon wheels I have been thru that same crap. It always seems to happen when other players leave the table.

I think anyone who has played this game for a long time can
relate!!!!!! I've lost 32 units in 5 minutes, lost 60 units in 10 minutes, lost 72 units in a half hour, lost 340 units in two trips ( 60 days apart). I've had trips where I've lost at every casino I've played at. These are some of my losing streaks that come to mind.

But I've had more wins than losses.
