Monday Night Curse... ugh



It's official. I'm not playing on a Monday for a while.

Last night I dropped about $1140. $1000 on the $200 game and then another $140 on the $500 game.

When I was driving to the casino I was tired and lethargic and thought to myself 'I should just go home, pack and run some errands..." but obviously the little devil on my other shoulder told me to hit the casino and try to come up.

After I lost I remembered that I had lost last Monday as well. I just checked my records and it's a lot worse than that. Here's a look at my last

11.24, 200, 9, -800
12.01, 200, 4, +605
12.08, 200, 3.0, -880
12.15, 15/30L, 0.25, +30
12.15, 200, 1.0, -80
12.15, 400, 2.75, -695
12.22, 200, 2.0, -1000
12.22, 500, 0.5, -140

Wow.

So in the last five Mondays I've lost $2960.


In December I've played on 17 days and had only five losing days. Four of them were Mondays. It's kind of crazy and I don't really understand it but it's enough to keep me away for the next few Mondays. I can definitely attribute some of it to being tired on Monday from a long weekend of playing and then waking up early Monday morning for work. Monday is the first day that I work eight hours and then sit in traffic to go play at the casino. Maybe by Weds/Thurs my mind and body has adjusted to that schedule but not on Monday.

I'm taking a break for a while unless my flight gets cancelled tonight. I'll probably go back on Saturday or Sunday when I'm back in Los Angeles.

Happy holidays.
