    I know it's not possible; otherwise, casinos would not exist.
    But I play keno (stupid odds, I know...but I play when I read my Kindle), less than 10 times every visit to Vegas/Reno and I have hit my 4/4 on a $2 bet on the last 15-17 visits. Maybe I'm just on the upside of the odds.

    But...is there any game in which you feel you have that "special" psychic-against-the-odds feel?

    My psychic win should probably be Megamillions, but I'll take what I can get!

    Good luck to you all! But most all...enjoy!

    I get asked this all the time at the craps table.

    Do I feel psychic? No.

    Inclinations, gut feelings, subtleties??? Yes.

    I always go with those. I know it’s not right but it is....what it is.

    Sometimes i feel psychic in poker when getting dealt the 2 cards....I think "I'm going to get a pair because I'm due...and then I do!

    but mostly, I just think I'm an idiot! I NEVER feel psychic in Keno, too amused by the audio...

    Do you feel like you come out ahead? I've just got into craps and that is one deceptive gain as far as wins/losses go.

    Do you play poker against other players or video poker? I've only played video because I'd giggle if I had a good hand against other players.

    It’s even. Win some. Lose some.

    When it works. I look like a genius. I save the money that out there.

    When it doesn’t work I look like a fool. BUT. I still didn’t lose the money.

    Also, I know the "best plays" on most video poker variations and yet I've gone with the aw-f-it attitude and panned out with a very few royals or straight flushes. It's all about that rush I guess.

    Yes, every so often when on the roulette table I get a strong feeling when one of the numbers I play heavy is going to hit. It’s not a general win feeling, it is a very strong feeling of the 5,8, or 11 and I know which it will be. It has happened probably 5 times. Wish it was more regular!

    My psychic ability seems to only work on the dealers hand.

    I don't believe in the psychic ability to change the odds in my favor.
    I do believe the a negative mind set will see me lose every time.

    I used to work at a place with a bunch if giant freezers. They were all right next to each other and some where empty, some full, some half full. The doors were opened at different times depending on if they were being loaded or you were gettying something out.

    I had to take the temps numerous times during the day and they would always seem to record the same temps. There were two not next to each other and they would have different temps.

    Made me think that they can in some basic way communicate somehow if they were next to each other. Our brains work on electric impulses after all so seemed to sort of makes sense.

    I noticed that slot machines seem to sync with the ones next to them sometimes in a similar way. if one hits, I always play the one next to it right away. Doesnt always work of course but there is an odd thing with it.

    About a month ago I had a recurring dream that I was at a Casino (not specific) and the " feeling " I won 12000 ? Went to the local Casino in Columbus and played several games with a Jackpot amount of $12,000 +/- …. nothing. Put my last $40 in a multi hand VP machine, 3 hands in I hit a hand pay for $1201.00... I was playing dimes.... 12000. Go figure ??

    I have times when I knew I would win...ahead of time! Just a few, though.
    I call that being "in the zone".

    Playing craps at the El-Co a few years ago, full table, rookie-virgin first-timer female works her way in to my right. She asks & I explain the basics to her.
    When the dice came around to her, and during her roll, she asked me about "C & E" on the table. After a quick explanation, she throws a 3. I tell her that the one-time "C" bet would have paid on that roll, and then I put $5 on the 11 and told her, "Now - roll an 11"... she did.
    For the next 10 minutes or so of her roll, every time she rolled 2, 3 or 12, I put $5 on the 11, feeling some sort of "psychic" connection to that combination of rolls... it hit 4 times and lost once.
    After the loss, she 7'd-out.

    I had 1,000+ times when I needed that "one card" for the royal flush and I just KNEW it was coming. One time I was right. Psychic ability...confirmed. This is why I gamble. :)

    Continued luck y'all! :)

    I knew you were going to ask that! :D

    I usually get a Han Solo kind of feeling when I walk away from the sportsbook window...

    only time i can think of is when i was turning 50, i had a dream that during a Craps shoot at the royale with cheese i was going to make 100x odds bet with the hard way number...

    we got to said royale, and i waited and not bet a penny until i got the dice.....

    bet $5 on the line and threw a 6....
    $500 behind and a $25 hard 6 bet,,,
    3 rolls later, the flying V....... bingo!

    once in a lifetime thing i guess

    and there were witnesses that can attest....

    I'm psychic in all games.

    I see myself losing money before every trip, and it invariably happens :D

    I don't think I'm psychic at all. I play craps and I test the waters looking for trends developing. If there looks like one coming up I go for the jugular.

    Sometimes it works. Most times it doesn't. But you gotta try if you like this game because you will have more losing sessions than winning ones.

    The key is money management on the losing sessions and all out "no guts no glory" balls to the walls bets when those rare heaters present themselves.

    That way you have a chance of making up your losses. Or at least enable you to lick your wounds and fight another day.
