    Do you like to gamble? Casino-style, friendly poker game, some other way?

    I've not had that much exposure to it.
    I used to buy lottery tickets when I worked in Michigan, but I'd only typically win my money back, and I bought them out of novelty than actual gambling.
    I don't really like to lose money.
    I can stretch money to where the penny looks like copper wire.

    I only play blackjack..and if I have to play slots it must be from WMS gaming because they have the best/funniest bonus games...like Lucky Lemmings or the new Top Gun (the chair vibrates when you shoot missles!)..also has a Bose surround system...neat ;D

    Certainly. I generally make "gentleman's wagers". I think it may be obvious political horse races are amongst my more favorite sports. I came within 5 house and senate members in '06. Hope for a good tally this time too.

    I gamble with my real life regularly.

    Gambling games don't really do it for me though.

    If I am playing with a reasonable enough amount that a loss would not stress me too much, then I am indifferent to a win. If I am playing with a large enough amount that a win would be exciting, then a loss would be sickening.

    I bet on horse races (won $300 at the Derby this year) and play the occasional poker game, but I'm not really a big gambler, i don't really get a kick out of it and see it as more of something to pass the time.

    I'm like the anti-gambler. Dealing with chances scare the shit out of me.

    Video games are much funner than Gambling. I wasn't much for it before, but I worked at a Casino for a while, which managed to turn me off for good.

    I play texas hold'em every sat. with a group of friends $40 buy in. I about year ago got into a some high stakes. Rather the friendly game got that way with a new person. One of these guys who didnt know when enough was enough and winning was everything. The pot got up to around 5000 that a little to high for my blood. To make this type bet he puts key to his travel trailer in to the game. Not one to back down from a good hand I played. Beat him with trip Aces, the look on the guys face look like I just killed his puppy. That night I and few others went to his place hook up the trailer, got the paper work everything I need to own thing. 26 ft travel trailer, that pretty much solve me from play anything that high again. I could have gone the other way....

    It used to be exciting when I was young, but it just seems too much hassle to go to the pachinko parlor, horsies or whatever.

    I don't much care for money, which tends to spoil games involving it.

    I do enjoy taking risks for greater rewards, although I prefer they rely on my personal abilities rather than sheer luck.
