Not really. You have to be nuts to play craps in the first place.

Thankfully my flying v dice setting technique makes it a positive EV.

Do you also have to be nuts to pay for other forms of entertainment, or just gambling?

My brother-in-law was always harping about how much I lost at the races? Until I asked him if he ever come home winners from
the Colt's games

Gambling is NOT entertainment. I can play this crud at home for free without losing money.



Now you're telling me what I find entertaining? You've lost it.

You can wait for movies to come out on TV and watch them at home for free. That doesn't mean that going to the movies is not entertainment. You can watch football at home on network TV for free. That doesn't mean that going to see the game live is not entertainment. You can listen to music at home for free. That doesn't mean that going to a concert is not entertainment.

I am giving this as a Christmas gift to eight people this year: Syma R/C Copter

An amazing value, great fun: the sleeper gift of the year.

I've lost nothing. Gambling is nothing more than wagering something of value on the outcome of an unknown event, period. If you find it entertaining, then thats your issue and thats ok. I simply see no fun value in betting money, thats all. I dont play these games, I bet on them. Also, I would NEVER pay anything to see a sporting event, concert or what have you.



You sound like a fun date...

Nah, for twenty-five bucks, you can get one for yourself.

The quality, the sturdiness, the sophistication of the toy amazes me.

It comes with the copter and the electronic controller; how they can sell it for that amount and make a profit is beyond me.

Took little time to learn how to fly the copter, and it is stable and maneuverable.

A great toy for boys and their fathers and grandfathers.

What's not to like?

What happens if you hold the dice with the "V" as a "V" (instead of the pointy side toward the wall)?

Yeah this was kind of my point....

You either pay money to do things that you enjoy (watch movies, go bowling, play mini-golf... whatever) or you lead a very boring life. All work and no play, etc, etc. There's no real point in having money if you can't use it to enjoy yourself.

Of course different people enjoy different things, and I'm not implying that everyone does (or should) enjoy gambling. But, if you DO enjoy it, I see nothing wrong with spending money on it.
