Atlantic City Casino & Won....

Couple of days go, I went to Atlantic city just to frive around and take a sort of small trip. And we went to casino and I looked around most of the time, I realized that I have three quaters in my pocket, then I decide play. I lost 2 right way, when I played the 3rd one, I won almost $12 dollars. Then I was walking around and spending from what I have won and watched how desparately other people are playing. Eventually I lost all of them. But I came to realize that all those people are playing for big bucks, BUT WHERE IS THAT BIG BUCK, I mean if you will lets say thousnd quaters, which is the highest and very rare, it would only be $250.00. But people are already spending hundreds, with the hope of hitting big. So People pschycology is very complicated. I saw an old woman, wanted to leave, but then sat again to the next machine, saying that want might have big, so I looked at her and told myself how big, and she has already lost alot. Anyway, next time u go, think about it.

ya I guess many of us feel the same way u did. So best thing would be not to repeat it once again, and if we think that before we do it, I think it would be helpful.

I used to be addicted to gambling, every time I went past an arcade, I was popping coins into the fruitmachines, sometimes I'd win, sometimes I'd lose. the addiction was so bad for me, that I was even going into my rent money, thats when I realised that I needed help bigtime. Now though I am able to walk past an arcade without even looking at the place.

Wow, That's really great and I hope that u really feel great for being able to walk pass machine and not to bother or look at at, and once u were addicted to it. I guess it shows again that there is nothing as IMPOSSIBLE. If we try we can do it.
