Anyone here go gambling lately? Weekend at Tahoe.

Post by TrailerParkJawa »

I burned 200 bucks at Roulette in about 10 minutes today. I had a great weekend up in Tahoe. Stayed at a timeshare with a group of people, only a few of which I actually know. I lost another 40 bucks in the slots but that took a while. The part of the trip was just how relaxing it was. Even though it was only Friday night through Sunday afternoon, this was the first vacation I've been on since spring 2002.

I'll tell ya, driving up to Tahoe in a friend's M3 BMW is a much better way to go than my anemic Civic. At one point we were doing 110 trying to keep up with this G35 in front of us. The then we decided to slow it down, cause there is no point in getting hurt or hurting anyone else.

If you ever get a chance to rent a kyak, give it a try. We went out on the lake for 2 hours for 20 bucks. It was nice and peaceful.

Anyway, anybody here think going to a casino for a day or two is pretty fun?

Rookie. I had some wrestling matches in Vegas last year. A bunch of us drunken wrestlers hit the casino in the Hilton at about 2 in the morning and gambled all night. I woke up in my hotel room with a half eaten steak in my hand and my throat felt like the Death Valley desert. When I finally managed to get up, I checked my ATM account and discovered I went through 1500 dollars. I don't even remember most of it. My other buddy burned 5,000 and woke up with a woman he didn't know.

Personally I don't like gambling, it's whole risk of loosing my money aspect that I don't really appreciate, now if there was no risk, then I'd be the biggest gambler ever.

Besides religious reasons banning gambling I dont like it because of the idea of losing money.
I have to tell you something everything I wrote above is a lie.

Well if that is what I have to do in order to earn the title "veteran" I think I will keep my rookie status. :D

I know someone that put 5000 dollars on red and it came up black. That hurts.
