Gambling

I was trying to think of some angle for today’s post.  Something interesting, something insightful.  But it is 10:45pm already, and I should spend the rest of this day watching Up with my wife instead of blogging.  So I’ll just let you know how yesterday went.

We got a regular room at Taj Mahal, which is fine for us, especially at a cost of $5.  We played a little video poker, Let It Ride, and slots.  We had some pretty good luck until I wanted to try this Reel ’em In slot game and we blew $40 on it.  But it was fun, I guess, and overall we won about $40, including drink tips.  We also got $30 food credit, and $25 bonus for my wife signing up for the players club card, so it was good fun while even making a few bucks.  Once again, our casino trip didn’t result in us becoming millionaires, but we would take a trip like this any day.  Free drinks, free room, fun games, and if it doesn’t cost us that much, how can we resist?

Taj Mahal has been offering me complimentary rooms on weekends lately, so I have rooms booked on December 10 and December 18 also.  Hopefully, those trips will be winners also.
