I’m spending the weekend and the next day in Las Vegas for a bachelor party for The Hoff. That means I’ll be on a Thousandaire vacation until Wednesday.
Wish me luck here. The craps tables haven’t been nice to me so far.

Good luck Kevin! Hopefully you don’t lose too much money and you can turn that luck around. I’m sure you’ll enjoy the bachelor party though.
I can only lose what I bet, and I’m not betting much. 🙂
The craps tables don’t have any legitimate place in someone’s race to $1 million.
Rule # 1: The house always wins.
Rule # 2: See rule #1
It has the same purpose as seeing a movie or going to a concert. Its paying for entertainment. I’m not looking to win money; I’m looking to spend money on something that’s fun. If I win anything then that’s even better
Hope you have a budget set aside and don’t go over budget when you start losing. See TX CHL Instructor’s comment above, LOL.
And “Don’t Debt” to pay for the vacation or the gambling.
I have a specific amount of money. When it’s gone, it’s gone. 🙂
Craps huh? Hope you find a table with a hot shooter and can ride them to big money.
I agree with what you said that it is paying for entertainment. Since you don’t drink at all you are missing out on some of the “freebies” but even without spending a lot Vegas is a fun city.
Enjoy and good luck!
I’ve heard the martingale system is a sure way to come out a winner. Works every time. 😉
