I'm starting at 0 except for the money in my wallet (4 bills after I visit the ATM), and a $20 Freeplay on 5Dimes. This is it, folks! If I go bust, it's time to seriously re-evaluate the gameplan. Go back to the proverbial drawing board as I lick my wounds. I know the errors in my strategy. Poor bankroll management which seems to have insidiously crept in causing my once healthy bankroll to suffer a beating not seen since the infamous Rodney King incident. Also, I have started to bet on too many games, a result of two of my staple sports being on hiatus, namely, tennis and NBA. I've taken such degenerate lines as Women's Handball, Philippine Pro Basketball, and Dog Washing to fill the void and satiate my addiction to 'action'. Ok, Dog Washing is a joke but if it did exist, how many of us could resist a small wager if we thought we had an 'edge'?
Anyways, what I hope to do here is to put on paper, so to speak, my wagers. This will be done in an effort to either chronicle this gambler's demise or immortalize his phoenix-like rebirth from the ashes of bankroll ruin. My first wager(s) hinges heavily on Ivy-League team Princeton. I hope they can shoot hoops as well as they study.

If Princeton loses, I will be left with $5 Freeplay and $400 cash. I am hitting the casino later to play some $1/$2 NL Hold'Em in an effort to quickly double/triple/quadruple up. Let's see where I'll be at the end of tonight.
