The last quarter was down. 20k down from the high point of the year back in the fall, just before that very negative week that we talked about.
But the year overall very good. My second best Blackjack year of my career.
However. My non- blackjack supplemental AP machine play, was down significantly. $8200. I have averaged better than 20k supplemental machine play for years prior. AND more than half of my $8200 occurred before my partner passed in early April. This portion of my AP play was already declining, due to casinos tightening up offers. And with my Partner, who handled all this play, now gone, I just don't have the time, nor desire to invest much time in this aspect any more. I am willing to let this supplemental part of my AP go. I am now playing just enough to keep some food offers rolling in so I can eat for free each day. That is likely to be the extent of my supplemental play going forward. I am back to my blackjack roots.
