Don’t feel bad for the people with means that play this way. This is only sad when a degenerate plays this way down to their last quarter destroying their lives and family.

People with means, money, and brains visit casinos like others might consider taking the kids to Disney Land a treat. Nothing to feel bad about, in fact you sound jealous of these type of gamblers.

We love the phony personal attention, the front row shows, 5-star dining, the massages, etc.. The wife loves the facials, manicures, pedicures, shopping, etc.

Yes, most of us lose most of the time, but casinos for some people is no different than a trip to Disney Land.

For the records, sometimes we even win, and win big.

I guess you would consider the whales that gamble stupid asses also, even after you consider they could buy and sell your whole live with their tip money. Imagine a group of whales all pounding away on a video poker progressive game trying to win 7K. Some risk more than that on one hand of BJ.

Casinos are lots of fun, and not everyone would even consider the need to, or would even want to chase plays all over the place in an environment that gets played out rather quickly.

I understand becoming an AP like Mickey Crimm who was a destitute street bum and too stupid and lazy to do something more rewarding than chasing 2-bit jackpots, still traveling all over the place like a tour bus, fighting to make a livable income.

As far as me proving the ability to enjoy casinos the way I explained, lol, go fuck yourself.
