re: Man loses his hard earned money at the casino and loses it

Gambling-100% certainty you will lose. I, myself, am a pathological gambler. I am now only one month gamble free. It is a mathematical certainty you will lose. I am glad I woke up and came to my senses, before I lost everything. (Wife, house, car, family) To me, gambling is the worst addiction. Most addictions, take time and have to be repetitive to count as an addiction. With gambling, you can lose everything in one sitting.

Looks like he was trying to evoke a violent reaction from security so he could claim racism and get a huge payday..

I would bet there are at least dozens, if not hundreds, of people around this country losing thousands everyday online now. At least this guy had to go to the casino and lose the cash in front of his face. It's way more dangerous to me that you can load up the credit card and lose a few thousand in a few minutes on your phone or computer.

Then he’ll get the thing in the mail offering all kinds of free play and a hotel room, and be right back in there.

I love gambling but I find it pretty easy to gamble responsibly. Same with drinking I guess. I suppose I’m just good at having vices.

A big reason sports are as popular as they are is gambling
Not only that, you are betting on games that are often compromised, to put it lightly.
Another reason I will never bet on sports.

Shannon Sharpe burner account twitter I can't stop laughing at the comments, any of y'all ever lose money at a casino and freak out
I lost about $3k at Harrah's New Orleans about 10 years ago and it pretty much broke me of the habit LOL. I have been to Vegas several times since and have gambled all of about 3 hours and to the tune of 2-30 bucks. It ain't for me. I enjoy playing poker in friendly games but casinos can kis my rusty red arse...I don't like paying for my own air conditioning, damned if I like paying for anyone else's...

Few things in this world are more depressing than seeing people play slot machines.
Black Jack is almost as bad in most casinos. The craps table is, at least, home to some lively conversation and interesting characters. Craps can be very fun in budget casinos with the characters such places attract...and unless you are mathematically challenged hard to lose a lot shooting craps...

I lost a 6 grand hand where I was a 8 to 1 favorite on the river….yep I wanted to rob the shite out of that bitch after that….haha
Still came out ahead in that session though.
Never played poker at that level but I have taken some bad beats...it ain't fun. Apparently degenerate gamblers get more out of a bad beat than winning...if so I ain't a degenerate gambler LOL...if I lose a dollar I am pissed off...

I will guarantee that if I acted like that, I would have been "escorted" out of the casino and prohibited from returning.
The level of double standards in this country is absolutely embarrassing.

Most people are looking for life changing money, but they aren’t willing to bet life changing money. They lose 100% of the time.
I read years ago that Harrah's Cherokee, about as shitty a casino as I ever set foot in (used to only be machines, may have some tables now) made about $80 on every pair of shoes that strolled through the door. Just in gambling. $80. Diverting tour buses of retirees through Cherokee is a good business model LOL.
Lots of casinos promote their slots as paying "97%" or some similar number...and people absolutely fail to realize that means for every dollar they put in the thing the best they can do is get .97 cents. Play long enough and you're going to leave more money in the place than you took in. Even skill players will eventually lose a little...because the casinos ain't in the business of losing money.
Harrahs New Orleans broke me of the habit...I used to regularly grind at black jack tables in AC and Tunica...usually could make enough to justify it...but I lost a little in New Orleans one night and simply decided it wasnt my cup of tea...

If you wear a wife beater to the casino you can't afford to be in the casino.
You should be in an alley throwing dice or some shite.

You would be amazed at the number of people that get paid and go straight to the casino hoping to get extra money and end up with not enough money to get food for the kids. Sad indeed.
If you ever want a confidence booster, go to a Tunica Casino. You’ll feel like an OT-10

I hate casinos - but my wife loves them == and wins more than she loses. (no pics, but even at 86 yrs old, most of you would take a second look)
Wish I could learn to enjoy craps = have tried but it is just a boring pain to me.
I used to enjoy blackjack, and I'd play until I lost my pathetic "stop-loss" amount. Then they started upping the buy in = am not about to play 15 bucks a hand at these tables.
Got to where I just go to take my wife - go to the hotel room and do my computer things, and pick her up when she is thru.
