"Technically, this counts as a trip" Report

It's been a while, so I hop in the Mustang and head off to M. I was going to go into the casino a couple of weeks ago while charging my car, but all of the ChargePoint stations were occupied, and the Tesla stations (a) are a bit of a walk, and (b) it seemed that everybody else charging there stayed in their cars, so I figured that I should as well.
Anyway, there is a bank of VP machines right near the entrance from the parking garage to the casino that have my "usual" game (25c Jacks or Better), but they're only 8/5. A bit of a walk into the casino later, and I find the 9/6 bank. I am into my third $20 when I catch quad Aces (too bad it wasn't any sort of Bonus Poker), so I cash out with only a $20 loss overall. On the way out, I grab a mini cheesecake from the coffee/dessert place; it seems a little high, but no higher than what I might pay from a food truck when on vacation somewhere. (It said "sugar free," but I don't know what they used in place of sugar, as the taste came across more like flan than cheesecake.) Back in the car, and I am home in about 10 minutes - Welcome to Vegas!

I myself had a Casino Session/Trip where I only lost about $20 and was ecstatic, LMAO! 🤣🤭 I remember a Poster saying he was down roughly $400 and did a Hail Mary risky bet and won $384 on that risky Hail Mary bet and was beyond grateful that he was down only roughly $16. I, Nathan remembered thinking,"He LOST $16 and is HAPPY? 🤨😳😱😐 He should be UPSET over LOSING $16! 😱😐😳🤨 Later on, I understood why he was happy ONLY LOSING $16 when he had just lost around $400 before. 💡 He got back $384 . 💡 I myself was ecstatic losing ONLY $20 when I had LOST around $100, so I got my roughly $80 back. 😀

Edit. Here is the trip/session in question in full details. 😀

I actually had two bankrolls of $40 each, so $80 and I lost $10, not $20. 😀
