So the least I can do for SBR John...

[DrStale]

...is give a shoutout to the SBR Casino after taking it (and a bit of the sportsbook) for 20,000 points in the last week. Placed a good-sized order in the SBR store last evening.

Thanks SBR.

Nice hit, DrStale! Awesome start to the new year for you

Winning 20k points in the sbr casino is as likely as growing a rooster on your forehead.

[Dad]

Wow... Dreams do come true. Congrats DrStale.

What did you play in the casino?

[DrStale]

Wow... Dreams do come true. Congrats DrStale.

What did you play in the casino?

Vast majority of it was Blackjack, usually martingaling. Well aware that I had to get very lucky not to bust out using this mentality.

Thanks gentlemen

Debated about the ipad for a while. That will be the next purchase if im lucky enough to ever get back there. I actually held onto about 2400 points which I ran up to 7K before busting out

As far as newegg goes was looking at this guy: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16889005260

Nice job, Stale!

Congrats

[Dad]

Thats a nice tv.

[doublej95]

Good Job DrStale, good choice with the tv.

[Housemoney]

Good job, SBR sucked me back in with that New Years giveaway. I lost 700 on one hand last night.

Didn't help I was very drunk at the time. Figured I would take a shot.

Easy come, easy go.

[BIGDAY]

Congrats!

LG's are good TV's. Got a 50" too, but it's 720p. Actually, it's kind of a dinosaur now at 5 years old

make sure you break in the plasma correctly to avoid image retention(burned image on screen)

[senseionline]

[freeVICK]

thats more of a myth with the newer gen plasmas......unless you are a major tard and leave a game paused or a ticker running for a week at a time

[yisman]

wow it's never worked for me using martingale in blackjack. lost 33,000 points that way recently, plus about 5,000 in 2010 I think.

I've definitely lost plenty doing it before. I managed to avoid the really bad runs until after I had made my store purchase (think I lost 22 of 24 after that) and hit a few blackjacks at 700 points a hand. Probably would never happen again though im sure ill still try at some point.

[yisman]

Wow, that's a lot of trophies! And one for both on 12/30.

[milwaukee mike]

nice work

Congrats! If you could do the above brahma would be outside your house begging to blow your forehead.

[EmpireMaker]

Congrats on the win and being smart and buying something with it !!!!!

Think of all the casino losses and new pro memberships this thread will bring in. That should brighten your day.

[jjaycuny]

20k??? thats awesome. I had some success martingaling the 2 to 1 in roulette then busted out

Can I ask what your starting stack and base unit were?

[samgurt]

thats more of a myth with the newer gen plasmas......unless you are a major tard and leave a game paused or a ticker running for a week at a time

not true. My 1-year-old samsung does it if there is an image there for like 30 sec. Eventually it goes away after like a minute, but it still sucks. I also have a 3-yr-old panasonic that has no problems with it at all.

Samsung makes great LCDs but i will never get a plasma from them again

[Roadtrip635]

Nice hit DrStale!

I won almost 700 the last two days playing Let It Ride Poker. I was just messing around playing 1 and 2 point bets, got on a couple nice streaks and hit a couple big hands.

[DrStale]

Can I ask what your starting stack and base unit were?

It was anything but strategically sound. When I was patient I was starting with 25 and when I was impatient or tilting I was starting with 100, sometimes 50. I had about 200 points on the 28th which I doubled up a couple times on Bowl bets then won some in Blackjack, then had 1500 on Oklahoma -13.5 which I got insanely lucky to hit. I moved up and down for a few days and then yesterday won like 13,000 almost entirely in blackjack betting 25/50/100... or 100/200/400/700...
