I found myself a new hobby. About nine months ago while enjoying another hobby (I bowl for a local gay league), one of my teammates invited me to go hit Ameristar Casino. I'm not a regular casino gambler but despite not ever winning anything of significance, I thought it'd be fun to hang out. I even went up and got my first membership card from Ameristar. Staying true to form, I didn't win anything on that trip, spending about $50 in playing various slots.
Fast forward to today and I've been to more than a half dozen casinos. These include Grand Victoria, Harrah's Joliet, Blue Chip, Firekeeper's, Four Winds, Magestic Star, Horseshoe, Hollywood, and Potawatomi (or Pochantas as I affectionately call it). Of course I can't forget the newest addition to the casino family Rivers. I've even joined a slots forum to share my experiences with other slot players.
Each of my visits I average losing anywhere from $40 - $200. I do enjoy playing the slots and I have had temporary wins that I've wound up giving back. My friends think I might be an addict. Maybe I am. I do get lured back whenever I get promos for free slot play. But all it takes is that one elusive jackpot and I'm back on top. Or maybe I just enjoy the pretty flashing lights. LOL...yeah that's the ticket.
