View on "entertainment" money.

[spiker1977]

Hi

So this happend yester day. I come home from work, checkt my email that i hade some free money on casumo. 

It was 6€ bonus money, put auto play on moon p and doing some household thing at same time.  After few games and running good i was up to 180 €.

My missys comes home and we are gone leave to meet some friends for dinner. So i put 3euro spins on BOD, no luck. 

Already here she is a bit fractious about me losing the money.

Pic of why i hate jamming jam shit



So when we come home we watch some netflix. After a while i take the laptop and put 25€ in leovegas, some fun on low stakes but ends like always a bust. 

So after i go for a run and do a core training. I start play some poker on pokerstars but after 10 min im bored whit the tight nit players on the table so i close it down. 

So i go back to couch and watch some stuppid reality show whit her, Back to laptop and put 20€ on Paf. I run realy good, 

This is as close i got to wild line on DOA (never will happen



So i run the 20€ up to about 600€. Im having fun and running hot on slots. storm 300x



So here comes the intresting part of the story. I have gamble alot in my life so i have a "entertainment" budget every month, i dont spend more then i have there every month.

So that money is going for me to have fun, what ever it is. I enjoy experience/treat for my self, dont realy care about stuff, but she is the oposite

So now i have 600€ and i feel that now i can try some stakes that i will never play other wise. some 100€ bonus buys on white rabbit and 5-8€ spins on slots.(normaly  0,2-2€)

I run ok, and it takes few hours to lose the money, i was happy that i got to feel some higher stakes. So now the drama starts she been sitting beside me seen all the wins and loses and explodes! she is argue that im mad that i lose all that money, what all things i could have got with it, in her mind i lost 800€+ that i could got stuff with. 

In my mind i used 45€ and got many hours of entertainment for the money.

So now you are wondering why the hell im i reading this shit.... It becouse im intrested to know what point of view you have on gamling and how does your family think about it?

Usually i advice to set a bottom line after really big wins and cash out most of it, but naturally , and in this case as you wanted to play much higher for once of course it can rip it all..

still you lost 45€, not 800 or whatever other number came up there. You WON that money, but lost it again. End of the day, you spend 45€, but had the chance to cash out wins.

of course that is way different than depositing 800€ straight up and lose it all imo
