*what the hell is going on?*
I returned to Raiden Gold Casino as a VIP and up L$43,000. My strategy was working and I was ready to take the casino for all it was worth. After winning a few quick hands the dealer began getting impossible cards and I was left with 16, 13, 14, 15, 6, etc on every deal. If I hit I bust, If I didn’t hit the dealer immediately had 21. Performing back flips for good luck only resulted in timeouts and having my money returned to me.

For the second time I transferred money from my Paypal account. I tried a different table betting L$64,000 and amazingly scored a Blackjack! *shiiiiiitttt* the dealer also amazingly had a Blackjack and cancelled mine out with a push. I was still down L$63,000.
Again I bet L$64,000 and was dealt a King and Jack. 20! Great, let’s see you beat that!
12, 13, 16, 21 Bet: L$63,000 (Lost)
I could not believe it. I went from being up L$43,000 to down L$127,000 in half the time. Disgusted and disillusioned I immediately closed Second Life and watched South Park until 3 a.m. muttering to myself.
The next night was New Year’s Eve and I received an invitation to the Raiden Gold Casino’s New Year’s party. They were offering a special cash raffle every few minutes so I thought this was just the occasion to turn my luck around.
For the third time I transferred money from my Paypal account but instead of betting L$126,000 immediately I thought I would start of humble and just try to win my money back and break even.

Lost 6 hands in a row without a single win?! Impossible! Down L$189,000. But I had lost so many times I was due for a win. The casino owed me a win. I transferred the remaining money from my Paypal account. This was my last hope. I didn’t have enough to double the last bet but it came close.
Bet: L$157,180
I had a queen and 4 showing and the dealer was showing 3. I hit and received a 2 for a total of 16. That was two low cards in a row following a face card. There had been many face cards in the previous hand. I would have to wet myself in order to hit on 16 with this much money on the line and the dealer showing a three.
I was shaking as the dealer turned his cards….(had I really bet L$346,180 in 3 days? That was roughly US $1,153. I wouldn’t bet that much in a RL casino. But it had happened so quickly and it didn’t seem like real money…..until now).
This picture speaks for itself:
I lost….I….lost. That’s How to loose L$346,180 in 3 days of Second Life Gambling.
