Knowing your dreaming without being lucid?

In a dream i had just last night i was at some apartment winning tons of money playing blackjack, like thousands of dollars. I turned to one of the guys i was playing with and said something like this to him :

Me: "Damn i wish i would be able to keep this money when i wake up. Is there a way i can give it to myself in real life?"

Him: "Nah, i don't think so dude."

So i guess i subconsciously know I'm dreaming but I'm not aware enough to do anything about it to get lucid. I have the feeling this happens to me A LOT too. I guess i just need to up my awareness and be more alert during dreams, any suggestions on how to do that?

Sounds like an awareness problem. The thing is you prolly know you are dreaming it's just not "Clicking" for you.

hah this happens to me rarely, but it actually happened last night. I had lost my laptop to the ocean, and i became distressed and was complaining about it to everyone. then a DC turned to me and said "It's ok its just a dream. It'll be back when you wake up."
all i can say is: wow.

this is EXACTLY what happens to me every time, i could be lucid all the time if it would click so to speak. actually, it not that im not aware, it more like i choose not to be lucid for some reason.
