i'm the same way, i'll buy a scratch off every now and then, and on a rare occasion a power ball ticket (big lotto), but i dont really enjoy gambling, possibly because i always lose.

Got a scratch ticket for Christmas one year
Won a $1
Bought a fountain drink.
Then I retired from gambling.

I have enough vice already....
I always say I can buy a 22oz and I'm guaranteed to win!
I spent 3 days at Mohegan Sun for a conference and didnt gamble once. I wanted to play one one penny slot, but didnt get around to doing that, I did have a friend who won 4 grand on a wheel of fortune slot

Given the odds, I never understood why anyone would gamble.

I just don't get it.

I gamble everyday, about 2-4$ predicting the outcome of a minimum of 2 hockey games. Unless it goes to shootout then it's a tie.

But yeah. I know it may seem I'm a degenerate gambler but I only have a 2$ a day habit! HA

I put 10$ in my account once, and never put money in it again, just playing with my winnings.

Is it still gambling when you're SURE you're going to win?
