StakeHouse Den: Lady Luck Turns Away Again
Hello and welcome to my blog.


Time for yet another update on my StakeHouse Den's journey. The last update post was shared more than 10 days ago, and during that period, I attempted to collect daily claims but was unable to maintain a streak of more than 4 days.
Despite my pathetic attempt to claim the free Hotsauce, I managed to collect about 300 of them just by the daily login bonus.
I took a look at the refrigerator and saw that I was one day short of 300 Hotsauce generations as well. Not too bad since I only have a 450 Hotsauce cap, I couldn't yet claim it, but I can spend the 300ish I have on my account first and then get it.

If I can get a bit more consistent with my daily claim, I would be increasing my Fridge's capacity to hold more.
As you already know, there are multiple games I can spend my Hotsauce on, but my favourite one is Blackjack. So, the first 300 HotSauce would be spent gambling on Blackjack.

Playing Blackjack
I didn't want to lose all of them at once, so I went with 70 Hotsauce bet each round for a total of 4 rounds. Any guess, how many I won today?
In the first round, I had a 17 vs a 7 from the dealer. I never hit on 17 or high, so I decided to stay and got rewarded as well.

The dealer got busted with 22. That was a good start to the day. I noticed that I won 0.5 Colony token, which seems to have increased. I am not sure why the rewards seem like increased from the last round, but I am not gonna complain lol.
In the next round, I managed to get only 18 after 2 more hits. I was not gonna hit again at 18, so I stayed and just like the last round, the dealer got busted at 22 again. That's a lucky start to the day.

But I wasn't that lucky in the next couple of rounds. In the third round, I got an ugly 16. I hate 16 so much, it is that weird one where you are most likely screwed whether you do. I tried my luck and hit, but sadly got busted.
In the next and last round of Blackjack, the same thing happened. I had to make a decision at 16 again. I decided to hit again, not learning from my mistakes and ended up busted again.
But even staying with 16 hands wouldn't have mattered in this round. The dealer had a 17 in the first two cards lol.
Two wins in a row followed by two losses. A pretty even contest today. It was time to claim the rest of the Hotsauce and gamble them away in other games. Maybe today is the day I can get the Jackpot in Slots?

Playing Roulette
I don't love the wheel that much, but I wanted to play and see if I get lucky here. Unlike the last time when I went for a lucky number, I just went for my usual bet on the colour Red. This was a round of 50 Hotsauce, and I expected to have better results today than last time.

I lost the first round. So, I decided to bet on Red again. It was still about a 50% chance of success. But the next round, I lost again. Looked like Lady Luck was not with me again.
I went for the final round hoping to win this time. The bet was the same as the last two rounds. Finally, the ball landed on number 18, which is red colored. And I won 0.34 Colony tokens.

Winning just one round of three in Roulette was bad. I need to come up with a strategy to bounce back today. So, I went for the crazy idea of spending the rest of Hotsauce in Slots. What a crazy guy...right? I had the worst luck in Slots so far, but maybe today is the day I win a Jackpot.

Playing Slots
Spoiler Alert- Nope, I didn't win the Jackpot today.
I had about 150 HotSauce left to gamble in Slots. I didn't want to do it in one spin, so I went with 10 Hotsauce rounds each for a total of 15 rounds.

Looked like today was not my day in Slots. All the rounds went with no winning until the last few rounds, where I won a x5 spin. Apart from winning just one round, there was nothing fruitful.

If you leave the early Blackjack rounds, today was not a lucky day, well. My luck seems to have gone away. I will be buying more storage on my Fridge soon, and hopefully will be more active, so I won't miss any daily claims. The claim streaks give a lot of Hotsauce, and it shouldn't be taken lightly.
