We play the lottery every week if that counts. Other than that, usually once or twice a year the wife and I get the urge to go to a casino. We'll each take 50.00 or 100.00 in the door and play slots until it's gone or we've had enough. Never really won enough to mention. Fastest time in and out was 20 minutes for us to each loose 50.00. Longest was 3 hours and we came out ahead by 8.00

I don't gamble, but I do "play the horses" for "entertainment purposes"

I LOVE the races.

Never got into the horse races, I do like to bet on sports games though. Makes them way more exciting.

Stay out, you'd be hooked. Way too much studying in there.

You think there's studying involved in that, you should try some sports betting. Will make your head hurt.

I don'tgamblemuch, but I am really in favor of building a casino in Cleveland. We have some great spots, but we always get the "gambling is illegal/immoral/brings drugs and prostituyion" crap. Yet we here in Ohio have a Lottery and lose a great deal of money to New York, Michigan, and Ontario. If people are going to do it, why can't we take some of their money, too?
