Since MIL is watching the little one tonight, i thought i would hit the Casino for a little while, i thought i come home rich.... lol......... but wrong answer

It was really busy there tonight and i always just play the penny slots, so i headed in there looking for them, finally found one, and lost 3 bucks....

so i think maybe i try the Wheel of fortune, walked around found one and started playing.... i won 10 bucks there so i thought i should stay there and maybe win a little more....

but i lost 19 bucks there and had to go back home ............

well it was fun, i am always amazed how many older people go there, there were many 70 year olds gambling away having a blast, one grandpa he was 86, he told me, he goes there every weekend, and he loves gambling, the most he had won was 860 bucks in one night... thats pretty cool. i thought it was cute, he could hardly walk, but he goes to the casino every weekend....

well i lost.... but thats OK

As long as you had fun, that's what counts.

Penny slots take a lot of pennies. Winning a few bucks is getting harder too, as the casinos are struggling to take in only a million dollars a day.

SORRY YOU DIDN'T WIN A BUNDLE

I love gambling. lol I haven't been for a long time. Last time hubby and I lost too much and banned ourselves from casinos for awhile.

I'm sorry you lost some tonight. Another night, another chance to win. Glad you had some "me time" for yourself. That's important.
Monica H. Jan 31, 2009, 1:15am EST
At least you had a fun night out.

Having fun is always the most important thing, not necessarily winning money.... I always Play blackjack and 3 slots.. that's it.. I never take more than $50.. and make sure that it's extra money that i'm spending.... that way i can have a limit.. I have never lost money at a casino.. but i'm sure my day will come.

My Dad and Mom go every weekend too. I never here of them getting rich though, lol =)

Glad you had a good time out...
Did your $10 win make you actually be losing $9 for the night?

It's good that you're able to leave with such little spending, not losing more than a certain limit. For some, that can make for an enjoyable time, but with others-well, many others shouldn't allow themselves to be within breathing room of a cassino.
For me, IF I went, I'd have to take only a set amount, and as Sarah said above, make sure it's extra money.

It's hard to win at slots, but glad you still had fun.

Sounds like you had fun though, that's the main thing.

The couple times I've been in casinos it's 90% old folks. I wonder if they are gambling away what little money they have.
C C. Jan 31, 2009, 10:36am EST
sorry you didnt win, but at least you didnt lose too much and had some fun!
Sandra L. Jan 31, 2009, 1:55pm EST
Sounds like you had a pretty good time for under $20.00. I know a lot of people who lose hundreds every time they go.
