reasons why i hate and love the casino...

[Tzar]

love: cause you put down 5 bucks and get back 27 bucks 15 minutes later.

hate: you loose that 20 bucks in 10 minutes and 7 bucks ain't enough for a decent drink.


doesn't matter... half of my jimmy beam bottle is in my digestive system now.

I just find it funny that they make that illegal, but let people pour money into poker machines whilst leaving their kids locked in the car in the carpark

Unless you count the scratch-n-win by the Maryland Lotto. Which I don't, really.

I have a friend who insists on buying at least 5 scratch-offs per month. She says if I go with her to the 7-11, anything she wins, she'll split with me. One time she made $28 off of scrach-tickets, and I told her to stop. She then said "Well, I wasn't expecting to win this much, so if I win more, I'll be MORE happy, and if I lose it, I'm back to where I started and won't be upset."

Needless to say, she lost it like an idiot (like I predicted), and she just shrugged and left. I wanted to scream "YOU DOUCHE! That's $28 worth of pornography and drinks you owe me!" but I didn't because I'm polite.

I went to the crown casino in melbourne, just to have a look around, and we stop to watch the table where they roll the dice. There's a guy, maybe 45 years old, brown 70's jacket (i refer to him as the brown jacket guy), leaning over the table placing his bet or whatever, and there's this really worried look on his face, and he breathes out through tight lips, you know that kind of "this better fucking work" stressed out look. It was really depressing, maybe 5-10 seconds of watching this guy completely put me off gambling. I hear the carpark there clears out at about 3:00 as all the mums go to pick their kids up from school, and sometimes they don't want to leave a pokie machine so they'll just wet themselves (n)

[Mcmac]

yeah people just pee in the machine

reasons the casino sucks - they dont let you in with thongs anymore

[Kid Presentable]

I got walked out of Burswood. I threatened to blow it up, and called a bunch of gamblers 'Stupid Cunts'.

[Mcmac]

haha

My sister went into a casino in Canada last year and she said that the oldies in it were pretty much tethered to the machines with retractable credit card thingies that they'd swipe into the slot machines instead of using coins. That's nasty.

[HEIRESS]

pffffffffft the slotmachine cards up heah RULE
better than man-handling a shitload of dirty quarters anyday
and the machines give out paper pay slips weeeeeee


my brother works in a casino

he's dealt, blackjack, poker and roulette
worked in the cash cage
and now hes a pit boss
so he gets to just hang out in his suit and act like he knows whats goin down

YAY BROTHER

I keep telling him to move to vegas and make some real money cause hes really good at what he does

[paul jones]

[zorra_chiflada]

And when floating.

I find US law fascinating.

[TonsOfFun]

I don't think the UK would operate if gambling was outlawed... That is one fucked up law not being able to bet.

[Tone Capone]

I hate the casinos where I'm from (the Indian casinos in Northern California) because the majority of the folks that go there are trailer trash and crack heads.

I love the casinos where I'm from because there are hot girls there... and also I win money... and it has good food... and a bowling alley... and zzz....

[jabumbo]

i find it funny that a few years ago they rushed the state gov't to pass the law about allowing a few slot liscences and they still havent sold them or done anything with them.

what the hell are they waiting for?

[icy manipulator]

love : very cheap daquaris

hate : brain freezes

[Tzar]

this is a pretty fuckin' old thread. i haven't been to the casino in ages.. i can't even remember drinking a bottle of jim beam before going to it either?
edit: can't remember the event..

[icy manipulator]

[hitmonlee]

i've never been to burswood, only star city and crown

i was so disappointed

i was expecting glamour

[ET]

I kind of despise the whole casino scene. You know, the whole suckering in suckers thing. But when I go I leave with cash. Always. But here are the only reasons I go...

1.) FREE DRINKS

2.) Blackjack.

Electronic gambling is for fools.
