Real casinos

As I said in my other post I live about an hour from 4 different casinos (The moon, the star, Ameristar, and Rainbow or the other I forget) and about an hour n a half from a few others here in Mississippi.

The first time I went, I walked in with $100 and left with $400 (I'm rounding the numbers because I don't remember exact amount.)

A few other times I walked in and out with:

In with $200, out with $700 (But had got up to $900)

In with $140 out with $300 (But had got up to over $500 I think)

In with $100 and out with $190 or $200

I've always got UP TO more than I came with - but many times I have came with $100 and $200 and left with $0.00

I'd say 8 out of every 10 times I've got up to more than I brought. I end up spending it though.

Example: I walk in with $150 and in 30 minutes to an hour more or less I've went down to lets say $50 and then up to $180, $190, $200 - so I say to myself "It was an hour drive, I'm only $30 or $40 ahead, I'll go ahead and try my luck"

Then I'm back down to the same amount I came with.

SO THEN I SAY TO MYSELF "It was an hour drive, I came with the amount I have in my pocket and played for about an hour...Mise well spend some and try to get ahead again"

Next thing I know I've got $50 in my pocket and feel it would be best to use it to get up to $150 again so I can say at least I had fun.

MY OPINION

I think anyone who has been to a real land based casino will agree that:

1) Your much much much more likely to get ahead at a real casino opposed to a VIRTUAL casino or online casino.

2) Real casinos are more fun, free beer, concerts, music, dancing, thousands of slot machines, dozens of tables, easier to cash out, and better for trying to get the extra money you need.

3) No trouble, no waiting, no faxing, no scamming, no customer service problems, no problems with cashing in the money.

Note: Real casinos (Not all of them) in the new times are digital - no coins. I can put in $20, get up to $30 or down to $10, hit "Cash out", and a ticket is printed. I can take that ticket to 1 of the many cash-in machines, insert it, and the machine spits out my money from the ticket

OR

I can take that ticket and put it into any of the slot machines.

So instead of carrying around a bucket of coins I can have a little ticket that I can use in any machine and it will print out the ticket from all machines.

Instead of carrying around $2000 in coins I can have a ticket that says "$2000" with a barcode and can either 1) Put it into any slot machine or 2) Cash it in for cash at one of the cash-in machines.
