It’s one of my favorite vices. I don’t bet away my whole paycheck or have a “gambling problem” but I love putting a couple dollars down on a sporting event to make the game more insteresting. Anyone like to gamble, go to the casino, etc…???
I was doing those scratch off tickets for a while. It got to where I really wanted to play them - like I was addicted. I don’t gamble well. I don’t have a good head for it. I don’t have an instinctive feel for risk vs. reward. I have a hard time keeping track of what is on the table.
I used to gamble heavy. Roulette and Black Jack was my favorite. Then my gamble- and also best buddy took his own live then I quit the gambling. Nowadays I play the lotto only.
I like blackjack and the slots. I’ve gambled in Reno, Lake Tahoe, Las Vegas, and in an Indian Casino.
The trick to gambling is to set aside a certain amount of money to gamble with that you can afford to lose and don’t spend anything past that limit.
If you lose it, “Oh, well”.
If you win then be happy.
