Well I do gamble - small amounts - from time to time but never more than I can afford to lose, and always with "take the money and run" in mind. When I'm up I cash out, put the winnings aside, and play with my starting cash again. If that wins, I quit. If I lose some or all of it, I've still got what I set aside from my first run of luck. We're taking our mom to the local casino in 3 weeks for her birthday. Now THERE'S a winner, at Joker Poker slots. Her biggest win was $3200 with 5 sevens.
Once in a blue moon I'll take a flyer on the Mega Millions (multistate lotto - current jackpot $220 million US) but mostly play $1, $2, and occasionally $5 scratch-off instant tickets. I do fairly well on those; yesterday's $2 Bingo Doubler won me $20.
