      I don't know much about video poker. How much can you play per hand? I'm guessing you played a lot of hands.
      I was actually up 2k at one point. I built my bet up to the max of $125 ($5 per hand 25 handed) and slowly watched it all slip away. I remember getting dealt four to a royal twice and never got one out of the 50 hands. That killed.

            You guys are all right, Xanax is horrible. Send yours to me, and I will destroy it for you.

Make this experience a positive force to make you a better man. being unable to sleep is a sign to be taken seriously, as there is always a cause. Popping pill will only blind your capacity to see the root of your imbalance. Yoga, a healthy diet, positive thinking, physical exercise, mind and body cleaning through a good diet and a balanced mind plus a regular sleeping schedule will allow you a to have a nice sleep.

                              OP - I have been in your shoes many many times. I can't tell if 16k is, like, borderline life-changing money or is it a significant amount but not life-changing to you. Either way, it sucks very bad... I don't know if you had ever done something like this but it gets better in a couple days. I have never lost 16k, but I did lose 13k in about 2 hours playing online BlackJack. Granted, it was all winnings (deposited $300, and ran it up to 13K in about 2 days playing in the casino on Carbon Poker. I had played a 2 to 3 hr session on BJ, and completely destroyed the house, ran that $300 up to 8K. The next day, I played all day, mostly BJ. That 8k went back and forth between 5K and 10K, before I finally dipped to 2K. I was playing single hand the whole time and I started playing 3 hands, max betting $200 each hand. In 45 minutes I had 15k. I got up from the computer for the first time in hours, first time my eyes came off the computer for god's sake. I handed the internet modem to my gf, and she went to sleep with it under her pillow. I also had her change my password, I was going to cash out 10k, and play with the other 5k, but not until my cashouts had been accepted. So after several frugal attempts to convince her to hand over the modem and let me play 30 more minutes (she got totally pissed off at me for nagging her), I let her fall asleep. I then snuck into the bedroom and slipped out the modem... 1st step complete. I then clicked "forgot password" and got the email with a new one... step 2 done... Copy/Paste... log in, BAM Blackjack in less than 90 seconds. Needless to say, I was broke in 2 hours. Felt like shit for a few days, had to tell my GF what happened. She was all right. I survived...

                                    i mean i smoke weed already but looking to cut back on smoking maybe try some valium, xanax or something to calm me down when i am stressed at work. I like weed but i dont think i am alert/ mentally sharp enough when blazed. Lately i been getting too high where its not really a functional high. like it just makes me want to chill. Maybe its bc this weed was a indica and i need a sativa

                                                  Painkillers or anxiety medication + gambling=disaster

                                                  If we feel no pain or anxiety while gambling our natural defenses are down and we don't hear the alarm bells I think. Really hope I don't let this happen again. Disgusted with myself. Tony probably got a nice chuckle from it.

Please try something else to help you sleep like benadryl or even nyquil. Xanax and the rest of the benzo family of drugs are given by unethical doctors meant to passify and brainwash society.
                                                  Wait... I have a question.... there's this girl I know who pops Xanax all the time. In fact... she's on like 4-6 pills a day. She says it doesn't even phase her anymore. She admits she's an addict. My question is... what does it make you do or feel like??? Would she be easier to have sex with (like easily persuaded?) Just wondering?

                                                    i mean i smoke weed already but looking to cut back on smoking maybe try some valium, xanax or something to calm me down when i am stressed at work. I like weed but i dont think i am alert/ mentally sharp enough when blazed. Lately i been getting too high where its not really a functional high. like it just makes me want to chill. Maybe its bc this weed was a indica and i need a sativa
                                                    gaba is for anxiety. google is your friend. don't do benzos or ssris. it's gonna fukk you up.

                                                                      people think prescribed meds are safe since doctors prescribe them but what people don't realize is pharmaceutical companies don't spend billions of dollars not to make it addictive. these companies make money by making their customers take them forever.

                                                                      if you still have symptoms of anxiety or what not, get some gaba made by solgar and take two in the morning. you'll feel a lot better than taking benzos. gl
