I'll see? The thing is we gamble RESPONSIBLY. We use the coupons the casino sends us and put in a MODERATE amount of our own money. When we lose we lose very little. So far we are over $200 ahead and I still have another $200 in free play coupons that I plan to use on Monday. Plus it is FUn to go to the casino. Some people will actually play video poker for low amounts just to spend time at the machines. That's not my thing but the folks who do so lose very little. I think ten bucks can last you at least a couple of hours of play that way.
Oh, and we also like the entertainment and shows. Once they had free food and dancing and gave away T-Shirts. We lost about 10 bucks total gambling that night but didn't care because we had FUn.
