This might help some other sickos (like me)

Let me preface this with, "i absolutely know that sportsbook casinos will eventually beat you at black jack." However, i'm such a dumbass, that over the last 5 or 6 years, i have squandered a lot of sports winnings in the casino. this is how it usually goes down for me, I click over to the casino for a quick round of black jack. I'll invariably win 300-400 dollars(sometimes a lot more) I'll increase my bets and eventually lose all my winnings, and then chase to get back to where I was before....And you guessed it....I'll emty the account. I'll double down with 9,2 and the dealer showing 6 and lose 7 out of 8 of such situations.

I thought I had learned my lesson, when last night after 4 or 5 beers, I did it again. A really good week of baseball, thanks largely to ACESUP's totals, gone in less than an hour.

I truly hope noone else here is as weak as i am, but just in case someone is, I just found out that you can contact your book and they will disable the casino on your account(or least pinnacle did for me)

Maybe this will help someone, if not maybe someone will get a laugh out of it. (becasue it really is funny that a college educated 41 year old man would be this big a sucker so many times)

I have played blackjack once when I first started betting online, lost like 20 bucks and havn't touched it since.

I like to stick to games where I can have an edge.
