Online Blackjack at 04:12 Was a Bad Idea
I couldn’t sleep.
Hotel room. Curtains half open. Phone already in my hand.
I logged in without thinking about why.
That’s usually when it goes wrong.
Online blackjack feels different at night.
Faster. Quieter. Less real.
I won early. That was the problem.
Increased stakes. Shorter breaks.
Everything felt automatic.
When it turned, I noticed too late.
The session ended abruptly, like someone turning off a light.
I slept after.
But not well.
