  • When in Vegas.......

    How big of a gambler are you?? You know are you the non-gambling type, the I only gamble 20 or 40 dollars and then stop guy, or are you the drop 5 grand a hand type of guy??

    For me, I'm the set a limit type of guy, usually 20 bucks a casino with a 100 max to lose amongst all of them. I really don't care if I lose, it's the entertainment factor that I like. Like when I went to a casino here and spent $20 and gambled for 4 hours, that is just some cheap fun, if you know what I mean. ;)

    So anyway, what kind of gambler are you??

    Re: When in Vegas.......

    Since I live in the land of gambling and legal prostitution, my urges to gamble in Vegas are relatively low. Though when I was in Las Vegas in November, I put $20 into a slot machine, promptly turned it into $240, then lost it all and put another $80 back in because I KNEW I'd win it back :P Yeah, I'm still waiting for that win :P I really don't gamble but once in a blue moon. Usually $40-$100 is all I'm willing to gamble with, and that's maybe every other year.

      About 10 years ago,we went down to A/C to check out the A/C Classic Car Auction,while we were there,we stopped in Trump's place,I put in $15(I had brought about $300 for the Show...)and won $7500(after Taxes..) :o ;D! Needless to say,I quickly left and simply took the Money home. ~J/W.

        Only about $200 maybe twice per year ... we have gambling here up in the hills. A few times I've hit a $400 pot and that's when I call it quits ....

              If I go to a casino, I might as well just hand over however much I brought to spend. Slot machines and video poker don't like me.
              I'm probably wrong

                I can't wrap my mind around gambling. A bird in hand man. I love watching my friends win some though.

                  I go to Vegas 5-7 times a year. Going again for 4 days at the end of the month. Rooms are freebies at the Paris. I usually go 500-1500. Keeps my comps up. Its close to wash. I get rooms.....meals....comped ......that's easily 150-200 a day. So if I gamble 1000.00 that's 250.00/day average. So it balances out.

                    We'll play poker with $20 per player on the table. That's pretty much my limit. If my $20 disappears, so do I.

                              I think Jim's talking about State Route 93 that's between Wickenburg and I40.

                              And I know what he means about a gamble, if the other motorists don't get you, you better watch out for Mother Nature, I've seen and been in some crazy ass storms that have blown threw there.......
