For the critic who says I only post about "wins" I want to make you aware that on Sunday at Rincon I lost.

I mention this because there are a couple of forum members who have become increasingly critical of me for reporting my wins.

Well yes, I think the "wins" are "newsworthy" especially on a thread such as the one we have here for big casino wins.

But I also lose. To be honest, I lose more than I win. I have never claimed a winning year in casinos... though this year is still looking good despite Sunday's loss. It wasn't a big loss, but it was still a loss and a loss I wish I didn't have.

Was I ever ahead? Well, on the first $100 bill I put into a $5 Aces and Faces game I drew a straight which paid $125 so yes, at one point I was ahead.

So for the record, on Sunday, I lost.
