I go to a CA Indian casino just a few times a year and only for five hours, some of which I spend moseying through the gift shop or dining. I will play some 2-cent or 5-cent slots just for fun. If it looks like I’m going down the tubes, I stop and go listen to the lounge band. I look at it as entertainment only.
