Gambling isn't that bad. First time I won something was during a ski trip. Put two dollars in a slot machine...first one didn't win shit. Second one...came out to a $100 payout. Me and my buddies just blew it all on booze at the bar. That was funny shit.

It's fun to play in Vegas though. Nothing like a good Vegas run. The point is just never to play again after you've lost for the day. I budgeted myself $50 a day when I was in Vegas. If I played and lost that then I wouldn't play anymore that day since I was apparently unlucky at the time. I did lose my $50 on my first day but after that, I just kept taking it to the dealers. Spent a couple hours playing blackjack and poker and came out with $500...wasn't as good as the $750 that I came out with the previous time but hell....it paid for my plane tickets.

Casinos are hella fun if you play right and don't overplay.
