Have you ever gone to a casino to just have fun or do you go to try to get rich?

[Dynamite2013]

My hubby and I go to the casino just to have fun but if we win money it is just used for the next time we go down to the casino. I don't ever expect to get rich there because I play it like they are video games. I love video games. How about you? Do you expect to get rich when you go to a casino?

I don't think I ever really had fun gambling. I take playing there seriously and set a certain budget on how much I will play up to. I'm not the best of company when going gambling, which my friends can vouch.

There is a casino in the town next to ours.  We go a few times a year, set a limit of how much to spend, and generally have a good time.  I don't expect to win, but I figure gambling about $100 a year isn't going to break us, and it gives us a few hours doing something different.

I have gone to have fun.  Sometimes i just walk around watching people put in mounds of money to then lose it all

When we go to the casino it's usually to watch a show or a concert. We have sometimes put a few coins in but only pocket change. It's rare to get rich. We work too hard for our money to throw it away on a maybe.

I think I have been in a casino just once. I not much for gambling. I would never expect to get rich  but I did have fun. I actually think it was more fun to people watch than to play.

Ha! I go just to have fun, and if I win, it's a double good night!!!

The ONLY way I go to a casino is to have fun! 

We have gone just to eat at the buffet at the casino and afterward played a few games using the free tokens they gave us for eating at the buffet.

We only take just so much that we know is going to go down the drain. Although I have won quite a bit. Since we don't drink, party or very seldom go to a movie, it is not much to lose. We also go to eat at the buffet. Maybe a couple times a year as we have to drive quite a ways to get there.

I never gamble....wouldn't either....no wisdom in it.

I go for fun often and just hoping one of these times I will get a big winner

[lvstephanie]

I only go to have fun... I try to follow a plan of just bringing the money I want to play with and that's it. If I lose it all in 5 minutes, then I'm all done. I also try to play with a upper limit as well... If I actually am on a winning streak and double my money, I'll put my original money away and just play on the winnings. If I've tripled my original money, I'll put away another starting-money amount, etc. For example, I usually come with $100... If I make $200, then I put away my original $100 and continue playing with the remaining $100. And each time I get up to another $200 in winnings (that are on the table), I'll put another $100 away and continue playing with $100. That way I don't feel like kicking myself when at one point I'd be up by quite a bit, but end up losing it all in the end. Also depending on how long I've been at the casino (esp. if I went with friends, and depending on how they're feeling), I may also stop playing after losing say 3 hands in a row even if I hadn't spent all $100 that I was playing with... Sometimes it just seems like I never really go up nor down, but rather have more of a steady amount of money, so if I've been there for awhile, I'll employ that 3-loss rule, consider myself in a losing streak, and bail before I lose all $100 that I was playing with.

I don't go to the casino now, but I did back in the day.  I love video games and have earned as much as $1,000 playing them.  I would earn as much as I could then.  I know of people who have had fortunate luck at the casino.  My friend took $5 and turned it into $340.  His niece won $96,000 at the casino.  If your intent is to get rich, I believe you are going to do so but it will cost you more in the end.  What I am saying is that you take your own risks in doing so.

i went to casino few time only to know, i played slot, win few bucks, and that was it.
I am not really having "good luck" on gambling, even the slot machines

[bremer51]

I go to have fun.  And I have more fun if I win.  I never really expect much, but if I come out a few dollars up, I'm happy. If I come out a few dollars down, I'm still happy.
