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

Most people are looking for life changing money, but they aren’t willing to bet life changing money. They lose 100% of the time.

Few things in this world are more depressing than seeing people play slot machines.

This seems to be true. Last year the wife(no pics) and I went to Las Vegas for our anniversary and one night in the casino she made the observation that if you look around you'll see that nobody in there playing slots looked like they were having fun or looked happy and she was right. They looked pretty gloomy really

Gambling may be the worst vice. It brings out the worst in people and has the potential to ruin so many lives and I’m especially concerned about it’s ability to ruin sports.

Its sorta funny how he’s playing the ‘oppressed’ card wearing a wife beater at a casino and bitching about blowing his wad

I’ve never lost my shite but I’ve had some bad beats that made me shake my head and think well that sucked. Todd Gurley sliding at the 2 or 3 yard line a few years ago made me mad and a LSU RB did the same thing at an Arkansas game. The Saints got some horrendous calls at the end of their last playoff game that irked me. I absolutely love gambling on sports. Having said that thank goodness I’ve never gotten out of control with it. I set aside an amount I’m prepared to lose and can afford to lose. I’ve been doing it that way for over 30 years. I wager no more than 1% to 3% of that money that I set aside on one single wager over the course of a year. Historically I’ve always at worst broke even over the long term in a calendar year, but even having a good year is nothing I’m going to get rich on. I view it more as a game to go head to head with the brightest of oddsmakers. Gambling is a slippery slope much like alcohol People with addictive personalities should not chase either one. I can drink a beer or two and I’m done. I’ve got a few friends that alcohol ruined their lives because they are nonfunctioning raging alcoholics. You just never know if you got that alcoholic gene in you or the degenerate gene. I’m grateful I can drink and gamble for fun and not ruin my life. My friend works at a casino dealing blackjack and it’s sad to hear some of the stories he’s told me.

It’s the Black Jack Nazi!

Someone told me a story about someone who has been dead for awhile, but the guy was known to drink and gamble and there were some good stories about him

I never knew that it takes actual talent for someone to tell a good story until I read this horrible intro. It's all over the place; in one sentence.

Organize your thoughts after the rough draft rolls through your head. The wheels turning your brain need balancing weights. No wonder why the 0T pushes you around. Take it step by step. If you plan a little, your story may grow legs and stand on it's own.

Seriously though, your stories truly suck.

Hard earned money, lol

If you watch his expressions and body language, they all say I'm a victim and I was forced into the casino.
