I’m not sure how people on this board make regular trips to the casino. I can probably go and enjoy it about once every 8-12 weeks.

You know it’s -ev, and it’s just a visual representation of math/probabilities.

Now, for those who can make it +ev, I see it making a little more sense. If you can play for an hour and make it enough to pay for your dinner, cool. But video poker gets extremely boring after a while.

I just think there needs to be some mental stimulation to make it worthwhile.

In the Pet Peeves thread, I listed a
bunch of things that irritate me
about casinos. I forgot mind numbingly
boring.

I find playing games to be mentally stimulating... That's what gambling is...

Baccarat is mentally stimulating? Craps? Candy land?

Yes?

I own Candy Land and played it a couple months ago. With another adult. I think we might have been drinking at the time, though. But then again I'm always drinking in a casino, too.

I agree in general that casino gambling is boring. If you want to make it more exciting it is very easy. Bet stakes much higher than you are comfortable with. Put your mortgage on the line, the food for your family, and all other bills that you have due. That makes it more more exciting.

I think my views are the exact opposite of TigerWu's. I could never spend as much time in the casino as I do if it took any thought at all. But it's kind of nice to not have to think about anything at all while waiting for free games to hit, waiting for a must hit, etc.

Drinking does make it more tolerable. But
I'm always there around noon, a little too
early for a cocktail.

You can make a lot of things exciting if you do them while skydiving.
