Default I\'M Running Good or I\'M Running Bad

Hope this hasn't been asked before.

Assuming that I play the same way, will I win more money wearing Tommy's I'm Running Good hat or more wearing the I'm Running Bad Hat?

Great question Casey.

I don't have the answer but in a little known study at the University of Miami's athletic program, they concluded that both hats will make you more money then if you wear Tommy's limited edition "Slowroller" cap.

I think I saw one on e-bay that went for the same price as an Elvis pink Caddy.


Best

Howard

Others may disagree, but I think you raise a good question, and I firmly believe that the I'm running good hat will earn you more.

Yes, I'm serious.

You should wear the Running Bad hat...


... but wear it backwards.

I agree for the same reason I always have at least a rack (and often two) of chips in front of me, whether I'm running good or bad.

Default Hello,Casey! Trying to convince your...

opponents that U are strong when U are weak,Huh?? This is what the "Running good" hat implies--U are running bad.
Hence,U should wear the "I'm running bad" hat when U are running bad and wear the "I'm running good" hat when U are running good. But only if U are playing against opponents who realize that "weak" implies "strong" and "strong" implies "weak".

I think there are two schools of thought on the "I'm Running blank" hats.

School 1 - Wear the "I'm Running Good" hat. Project a positive image and intimidate your opponents.

School 2 - Take both hats to the casino. Start with the, "I'm Running Bad" hat. If you are up, keep that hat on. If you are running bad, switch to the "I'm Running Good" hat and change your luck.

I can hardly wait, I wonder what I will do with my 'I'm running good' hat, then.
