Trying Out The Theory

I've noticed that I do better at the casino when I'm feeling tired or ill. I think it's because it puts me in a more pessimistic frame of mind; i.e., closer to reality. As a rule, gamblers are far too optimistic.

The theory came close to success. I was $900 ahead at Thunder Valley. But I lingered a half hour too long - was I feeling better, perhaps?

In any event, final loss Sunday evening was $350.
