I don't know. As for me when I walk into any of those places I see a very nice location that has to be rented or bought somehow, and then built up and furnished with very nice carpeting, fixtures and a bunch of machines that probably cost more than half the cars on the road. Then there are all the payed attendants and I'm sure a certain amount of cleaning and upkeep after hours. And then there's the electric bill. And I'm supposed to come out ahead with all of that? But then when I was in Vegas I did make references to those machines as to the reason to why I couldn't take out pretty ladies on a "date" when they would ask me for a date. --Just being polite.

Hmmm, I thought that you had to be MATHENMATICALLY ILLITERATE to gamble real money...

I know a whole country who gambled by voting a man called George W. Bush into the presidency and NOW you see what has happened...

Not the whole country, as I remember the majority voted for Gore.

A very wise person once said to me "never gamble with scared money" I have never had money that I thought I could throw away so I don't gamble.
