the gambler

Yesterday we trekked to the somewhat local casino to get our gamble on.

I am not a big gambler. While I absolutely love to win me some money, but simply cannot handle losing it, which let's be honest, it usually how it goes. This is why I play the penny slots. It'll take me an hour or two to lose $20 bucks, so I just look at it as the cost of entertainment.

We had an awesome time {aside from all that second hand smoke - blech} but can't quite narrow down the highlight of the night. It all comes down to

~me winning $28.50 on the penny slots. Yeah, that may not sound like a lot, but that's 2,850 credits...I was ballin'!

or

~seeing a woman reading her bible at the bar while downing a cold one {or three}. Hey, you know what they say...church is wherever you choose to worship. ☺

Cameras are a big no-no in casinos but I couldn't resist snapping a shot {covertly, of course} of the darlin' machine that gave me my fortune. How ever will I decide on what to spend my winnings on?!

How do you gamble? Slots, poker, 21...keno?

I like black jack but don't like how expensive it is! Next time I go to a casino I want to black jack slots!

I prefer the penny slots too. But we rarely gamble. Not my favorite form of entertainment.

I'm not a big gambler either, but I do like to play Blackjack - only if there are $5 tables, though!

I like the nickel and penny slots, too. But the most I've ever won is a couple bucks.

I'm a penny slot slut myself. I can't handle losing too much money there.
