Thanks for the sympathy Babe... misery does love company. I too
always congratulate those near me who get hits, even when I am not.
It's just friendly and I like to see people win. Welcome to this
board and know that I enjoy your reading your posts.

Hi Correna,
Gads!! It also drives me up the wall, when someone who has never
looked at a strategy chart, and is playing a sub-par pay table,
keeps raking it in? I suppose the un-gurus, un-mathheads like Rob
Singer would have a smart answer for these occurances. I think it's
just a matter of having a "lucky seat" during that session. And, I
don't mean the seat that belongs to the casino, but rather the one
you drag behind you. And, of course, this is "only the short-term",
as our Gurus tell us. Some consolation!
My husband always tells me to (a) mind my own business (b) don't
watch other people's play and (c) pay better attention to me own
play, less I get confused, and start making the same dumb mistakes
as the person I've been watching. Usually, I ignore this good
advice. I guess I have an irresistable impulse to snoop on my
neighbor's play. Unless I am really given a VERY hostile look, by
the person being watched, not much discourages me. In my own
defense, I will say that, whenever they snag a big hand, I
congratulate them provusely on their good fortune. This not only
engenders good will, but causes them to keep playing, which, in both
the long and short term, enriches the casino coffers. Hopefully,
this will permit the casino to continue to offer good advantage vp
play to those who can try to exploit it. (Or, on those dark days
that Correna describes above, sit helplessly by, while the not-quite-
so-knowledable grab all the glory!
As long as you're having a good time.......right??
