Intemperance is most common mistake that SR players do every day. Today, I made a big mistake that made myself a loser. I played two Stinkin’ Rich machines at local casino and won about $400.00 within 20 minutes with SRP techniques. After I figured out those two machines are empty, I cashed out all credits. Even though it was daytime on weekday, there were no empty seats on SR machines. It was too early to leave the casino. I’ve been there only 20 minutes. It took two hours to be there from my house.
So, I decide to play other slot machine I played before. I lost $100 within 40 minutes at the slot machine. My brain keep saying that I still won $300. If I play SR machines when those are available, I could make up the amount I lost at other slot machine. While I was on the way to men’s room, I saw SPAM slot machine. The progressive jackpot of SPAM slot machine was near 4 million dollars, and it wispers to my ears “You could be the winner”, again “It is ready to blow this jackpot now”. The SPAM slot machine sucked up $100 within 4 minutes without any SPAM bonus. I looked arround to find an empty SR machines, and I found one empty SR machine. However, the SR machine was the machine I won $400 about one hour ago. I had to leave the casino, but I thought that it was too late to leave like this. I had to make up some money I lost. I played the SR machines, but the machine kept showing the sign (SRP v.3.0), which noticed that machine has no money to return to players. I had to leave when I found out that, but I couldn’t because there are no SR machines available. I played the SR machine, and I lost all winnings including my bankroll. On the way to home, my feeling was terrible for not keeping the rules I made. It was the worst feeling I had most recently.
List of mistakes I made today at the casino
1. I Played other slot machines that I don’t have any strategy. I gambled today.
2. I Didn’t left the casino after making money over $400 because of time and what if therory.
3. I couldn’t resist the progressive jackpot amount and other temted slot machine.
4. I played the empty SR machine I won previously.
5. I couldn’t leave the SR machine until my wallet was completely dried.
I didn’t upset about the money I lost today. I was really upset to myself. I thought that I can control myself without any problem because I am professional, but what I did today was like a first time casino visitor who won few hundred dollars and lost everything before leaving the casino.
While I am writing this post, I realized that how strong the temptation of slot machines are. Casino designed this money making system that people simply hooked up if people moving based on thier instinct. It’s a shame that I didn’t keep the rules that I made, but I post this confession for our SRP members who might confront same situation like I had Today.
I made some list to avoid making mistake again.
1. Set very tight rules in the beginning. It will affect only little portion of bankroll problem by common mistakes.
2. Do not expect same result that you experience before while you playing SR machines or other slot machines. For example, you won big last time, and you thnk you could win like last time on the same machine you played.
3. Empty machine … Yes, it is empty machine. Leave as soon as possible. If your body is not moving under your control, wear a rubber band on your wrisk, and pull and hit with it to wake you up.
4. Set daily plan for winning amount.
5. Forget about how far you drive from home.
6. No more what if theory.
