Blade - Slots Game - Squirrel Session #2
Blade was the second Marvel Comics slot machine game I played at InterCasino.
I liked the original Blade movie. It sure as beat the Hell out of that sorry Hulk movie.
I mean, what was the deal with Nick Nolte in that movie? He had these giant poodles that could go toe-to-toe with the Hulk, and he was sneaking around and being all cunning and stuff, and then he was ranting about the government. It was really lame stuff.
Besides, Kris Kristofferson would kick the hell out of Nick Nolte any day.
So I figured the Blade slots game would blow the Hulk out of the water. That Hulk game took $30 from me.
This turned into a marathon session. My Blade session was the longest turn at a slot machine since this experiment began. It lasted a whopping 114 pulls.
With $0.45, $0.90 and $2.25 wagers, I decided about halfway through that it would take a while to blow through $50. But I plowed on.
46 of the 114 spins were winners. Of those, I collected wins of $13.50, $7.25, $18.75 and $11.25.
None of that mattered. I still ended up dropping $31 on the session. Most of the other "wins" still lost me money, so I got nickled and dimed to death.
And once again, I never got ahead of the house, so I never squirreled any money away.
This squirrel system doesn't work very well when you're losing money.
Starting Money: $365.95 Ending Money: #334.15
