After 5 months of frequent visits to the local casinos I am done with it. Here is my story. I bought an annual levy pass that costs S$3,000 on September 2023 which allows me unlimited entries to the casino for a year. I mainly played Bacarrat and slots throughout and created a spreadsheet to track my nett profit. At first I was winning, my highest peak nett profit was S$12,000 then it fell to -$7,000.

I was devasted, and then limited myself from visiting the casinos to 6 times a month via the NCPG website. I then managed to get back to $7,000 profits again and fell back to -$21,000 on November 2023. I stopped going to the casino, as $21,000 is a very huge amount to me.

On January 2024, I went back to the casino after a month break, this time I turned -$21,000 into a profit of $21,000. In total I won $42,000, I was so happy and would like to call it quits. However tradgey happened on February 2024, I lost back -$22,000 which means my nett profit is -$1,000 now.

I am calling it 100% quits now, and sharing my views for the past 5 months, so if any of you want to visit the casinos over the chinese new year period, you can reference and think twice.

Casino Membership - Loyalty Program

One of the best perks, is the casino membership program, sign up one and you will receive free vouchers monthly. Over the past 5 months, I have received over $1,000 worth of vouchers to spend within the integrated resort.

Game of Bacarrat - Conspiracy Theory?

When you are in a winning streak, there will be some punters appearing out of no where that will try to tag along your bet because the minimums are high. I think (not confirmed) (conspiracy theory) that these punters are just there to stop you from winning more. At certain times, I was betting $1,000 per hand some punters will then place a $25 bet on top of your chips and guess what is the outcome? It always lose. So how to prevent such things from happening? Simply tell the dealer that you do not want others to tag your bet.

Slots Machine - Run after you hit jackpot handpay.

In my view, if you win more than x100 times of your wager on the slot, just leave the slot and cashout. If you continue to play, you will lose more.

Good luck and have fun!

I am calling it quits, this time for real as I lost nothing, -$1,000 in nett profits can be subsitute by the vouchers the casino are giving me. I think they will still continue to give me vouchers until the end of this year to entice me for coming to play.

By your trend, you should visit once more to get net winnings before you quit right?
Sorry, no wonder you didn't win bacarrat as it is about trends.

Why u never play the video bacarrat? Then u no have to worry ppl join u.

Also, the problem with humans is always stop after making a loss, and not after a winning streak. Which should be reversed (I think?) 🤔

There's no need for conspiracy one lah, all the games follow their respective calculated odds, which is in favor of the casino. U will win sometimes and lose sometimes, but in the long run, u r almost certain to be losing.

Yes I have thought about to re-visit to get back more money but after two incidents the feeling is not the same anymore.

Incident 1: Nett lost -$21,000
Incident 2: Won back $42,000, Nett wins: -$21,000 then lose back -S$22,000, leaving with -$1,000 nett lost.

The feeling of losing -$21,000 and -$22,000 in one day is unbearable, let alone it happened twice. So I am not going back, maybe If I go back, I may win $40,000 again and then lose back $40,000.

Lucky I studied maths in school. No need to make the mistake to learn. Statistically I will lose money.

Good that you almost break even. Hope you don't itchy again.

Can't afford to lose don't go in the first place. When you play with $ you can't afford to lose, you will never win big, because every bet you place is with pressure. Only one who gambles without pressure will win big.

Why not stop the moment you won?

Yes this is true, on the month of January 2024, I won $42,000, everytime I go to a bacarrat table, (not permium table) the supt will tell the dealer to ask for my member card, the dealer won't deal me until I give my card. One instance when I take a long time to peak the cards, the dealer told me, I cannot peak at the cards.

Yes I have a thought to stop at the moment I won, but the thought of I am still in positive nett profits, why not just continue to play. This time round after 2 incidents, I am stopping for good.
