Hello! Last weekend I went to Vegas and pretty much gambled for the first time. I mainly played Blackjack... and guess what? I won an earnings of $240 total! Isn't that awesome?! The first night, Mike gave me $60 to gamble with Sung at the Blackjack table. I was actually up $150, but then I started doing not so good.. so I was at $100. I decided to call that game over and stopped... so I won $40 total from that. The next morning, we went to The California Hotel again to gamble. The Cal is not on the strip, but Sung likes to gamble there because they always have $5 min Blackjack tables there. Plus he always goes there when he's in Vegas so they know him there. So in the morning, I put down $50 and played Blackjack again. I played for about 3 hours and when I decided to stop I was at $150, so I won $100! Then we gambled again at The Cal after dinner, so I put in another $50 and stopped again at $150, so I won another $100! I was so freaking excited and amazed. I never had so much fun gambling. Well, I'd never really gambled ever to begin with... it each time I gambled, we were at the table for about 3 hours... the time went by so fast! I think I definitely got lucky. I just kept getting fairly good hands. I wasn't putting a lot down. I mean.. for me, putting $20 down on a hand was a lot for me! I never put down more than that per set. Some people were laughing at me because I made sad faces even when I lost just $5. hehe.
Now Mike says I caught "the bug"... We're going back to Vegas at the end of June, so that should be fun... =) And I'll definitely gamble a little bit then too!
In one weird aspect, I feel OLD. Or something. I can't ever really get drunk anymore. I'm too sickened by the thought of alcohol as I'm drinking it sometimes that I feel nauseous when I drink. It's quite annoying because I'd like to be able to drink like I used to! My mind won't let me do it is the problem...
Regardless...!
My first hundred bucks winning!
