I think it’s a really good one. 🙂

I’ve not seen that movie. I’ll have to look it up and see if it’s available.

Vince is like that with his poker and I don’t mind that. If he loses, he’s done – movie’s over, ride finished. End of story. Then it is just entertainment. Did you ever see the movie, “Molly’s Game?” It is a story (I think true) about poker players who didn’t know how to say no.

That’s a good lesson to learn, Janet. Slots are all about slowly taking money from your pocket to theirs. How else could they build those beautiful casinos? >grin<

I treat my gambling as entertainment. I risk the price of the “ticket” for the next hour or two. If I am not lucky, then maybe it’s only 15 minutes, but one has to know when it’s time to quit. When my stake is gone, I don’t reach into my pocket for more.

I have won small on occasion, but mostly I lose. 🙂 That’s why I consider it entertainment and know when to stop.

Of course they eventually lost all the money, a lesson they never forgot. 🙂

If you stay at Polo Towers, a Diamond Resorts a timeshare facility across from Aria, they give Craps lessons for free. We went that night and played. Vince had won a couple hundred playing poker, and I quickly lost it after the dealer fellow who was helping me left the table. I think we ended up with $13 and had some ice cream. It was still a lot of fun.
