    On my honeymoon 7 years ago my wife and I took a very expensive 13-day Mediterranean cruise on a huge ship with a casino. One afternoon I went there and spent $300 over about an hour.

    I still kick myself for throwing that money away.

      Best thing that could have ever happened to you. If you won it ‘big’ you’d have ended up losing way more than 300 bucks. A moderately priced lesson.

      I went to the casino with friends around 12 years ago. We agreed to get a few coins (around 20€ or so) at the beginning, play them and leave once we run out of coins.

      Everyone lost their coins except me, I left with like 27€. It was the only time I went to the casino.

      So now I can never go in a casino again ! I have a perfect record, I’ve always won against the casino and I intend to keep it this way my whole life.
