I read an article about Gambling being Sexy and here are the points in the article I happen to agree with.
(I didn't write the points below, they were taken directly from the article)
* Bond and his gazillion movies: The guy looks handsome and suave with his martini, playing and calculating every one of his opponent’s moves while impeccably dressed. He oozes sexiness while defeating his rivals at the table, who wouldn’t like that?
* Gamblers are smart: Gambling is more of a game of strategy, not just anyone can make split second decisions where hundreds or even thousands of dollars are at stake. It requires character, boldness, confidence. All of that rhymes with sexy.
* It’s unpredictable: The rush of the uncertainty; just like when you’re trying to conquer that special someone you have your eye one, you can never know what the outcome will be. You must risk it, take your chances and hope for the best. Pretty much like gambling, except, when you gamble you can also win money!
* The primitive instinct of the strongest one leading the pack can also be a characteristic human trait found at any casino: players who are on winning streak experience a surge of confidence: bold movements, loud voices, jumping, smiling, laughing. All of this could be part of a “mating” ritual perhaps? a silent psychological display of power aimed at attracting the ladies (or the gentlemen) based on who takes home the biggest jackpot.
Do you find gambling sexy?

A bunchof high school kids washing cars to raise money for the school library is not sexy.
replace them with good looking ladies in bikinis....and car washing is sexy.
stripping isnt sexy if the person stripping is out of shape and ugly.
so put sexy people into gambling scenarios....and they will still appear sexy.

Years ago, my nephew and his buddies in their early twenties, took a road trip cross country. He took his tuxedo with him because he wanted to wear it while gambling, James Bond style. He won big, then got himself and his buddies a hooker.
He said it was sexy, but I suspect he was talking about the gambling in his tuxedo part.

Yes, but james Bond could make anything look sexy. He could sit and read the phone book aloud and make me swoon: "Aarons, Abraham Aarons." Like that.
I mean James Bond as depicted in the Ian Fleming books, but all the movie Bonds could do just as well. All of them, but especially Sean Connery and Timothy Dalton.

Somewhere I've read that women who gamble or are into gaming (video games, facebook games, etc) have more orgasms then those who don't. Winning money on a game of chance seems to do crazy things to people. I've never had an orgasm playing video poker or table games BTW, but hitting a 6 figure payout will make me wonder....

Or is this something completely different?

I was kidding, but I wish I wasn't. I think the WIZARD strat is sit next to her and flat bet the minimum and flirt with her. Full table of course, with a straight woman next to her as well thus preventing a degree of competition.

"No! It's cold, calculating, and cruel!" Forget the ads and movies. Have you looked at the people gambling? I've had lots of sexy moments in casinos, but it's never been part of the gambling. I have seen very attractive women at the tables, but the act of gambling has never given them any sex appeal in my eyes.
