    Thinking about putting my tax return on black!
    Have you guys ever done anything crazy like this?
    I'm 22, so I don't have much to lose, and I'd love to let it ride.

    Is there a better gamble to make on table games? I've heard craps has the best odds statistically.

    I'll make a video and post it on here tomorrow!
    What do you guys think?
    Am I crazy? Should I abort mission? Should I do a different game/gamble?
    Thanks!

    (It's 4k by the way.)

          isnt the odds less since there is green and double green? I heard baccrarat is the best!

            No way you got a 4K tax return with at 22 with no kids, solid troll, though. My money is you don't even work and the only taxes you pay is when you used your gov't subsistence to buy video games.

                Not a bad idea, better than betting a color on roulette.

                Or try this:

                        To the people doubting my 4k tax return, it was ~3.7k.
                        I live on my own, pay for my own schooling, and have the energy credit also.
                        I made 35k last year (not bragging, it's shitty I know), and I am an S0, so I get taxed more so I can have a larger return at the end of the year.

                        I'm stuck between putting it all on black, or just throwing 1k on craps putting it on 7.

                          go to black jack table, 1st hand bet 100. 2nd hand 200 3rd hand 300 4th hand 400 5th hand 500 6th hand 600 7th hand 700 8th hand 800.
                          you stop anywhere along the way once you hit a black jack, could even be the first hand.
                          tell us how much you profit or if you lose, must walk away after the first black jack or after 8 hands win or lose.

                          tell us how much you profit. walk to next table repeat if winning of course. walk away repeat, walk away repeat. could last you 48 hours with a major profit. or could lose it all but will be a lot of fun doing so...f**kin off the 4k that is ..

                              That sounds like a fun little chasing method.
                              I might just do that.

                                If you get an 11 or 10 against dealer 5 or 6, double down too.

                                  FIRST things first. You're a gambler and you need a lesson on EV (Expected Value).

                                  You just told us you claim 0 for the sole purpose of paying more taxes throughout the year in order to receive a larger refund check over a year later.

                                  You say you're paying for school? I suggest taking a finance class to learn the Time Value of Money.

                                  You are giving the government a 12-15 month interest free loan. Why not claim 1, pay less taxes out of each paycheck, have more money throughout the year, invest that money intelligently and instead of receiving $3.7k from Uncle Sam in April you will have $4.07k of your own (assuming basic 10% ROI). Numbers may vary, but in theory I am correct. No debate.

                                    So against the dealer's 5 or 6? Or if my cards are 11, 10, 5, or 6, I double down?

                                        Ok! I thought the general rule was to always double down on 11.

                                                    I live on my own, pay for my own schooling, and have the energy credit also.
                                                    I made 35k last year (not bragging, it's shitty I know), and I am an S0, so I get taxed more so I can have a larger return at the end of the year.

                                                    I'm stuck between putting it all on black, or just throwing 1k on craps putting it on 7.
                                                    So you want to gamble over 10% of your yearly salary on a bet that hits less than 50%?

                                                      Put it into your 401k or Roth. You have a future to think about.

                                                          You just told us you claim 0 for the sole purpose of paying more taxes throughout the year in order to receive a larger refund check over a year later.

                                                          You say you're paying for school? I suggest taking a finance class to learn the Time Value of Money.

                                                          You are giving the government a 12-15 month interest free loan. Why not claim 1, pay less taxes out of each paycheck, have more money throughout the year, invest that money intelligently and instead of receiving $3.7k from Uncle Sam in April you will have $4.07k of your own (assuming basic 10% ROI). Numbers may vary, but in theory I am correct. No debate.
                                                          How would you get 10% with less than one year to invest?

                                                            That was just an example. If you invested in the stock market you would be an anomaly if you made less than 15% last year.
