and took family out to gamble and had money for babysitter too. We hadnt all been out for a long time and wastime for us to really enjoy ourselves. Now problem is with Son =in = law. We have agreed to share when we win $40 or more. that keeps us all playing. Well Son- in- law won and turned arounbd and put it in his pocket . We had to ask where our share was and he said he was to busy feeding the slot to put out the money!. Daughter an i do it right away so all get their share. Me and him got to arguing and loud. and Do you think if I win again I should take him out when he acts like this!?

No I'd never take him out again. The money I'm sure isn't the most important thing but it does show his true character by breaking the agreement between you. There's an old saying, fool me once shame on you, fool me twice shame on me. I wouldn't give him the chance to fool me twice and do any more damage to the relationship. It's so pathetic that some people have to be that way. Sorry this happened to you my friend.

If there has been a pre arranged agreement any winnings should have been shared. He is being selfish if he keeps all his winnings and did not share his joy with people that are with him. I used to go to jackpot gambling with my mom and if she wins $500 she would give me $100. At the end of the day I end up richer than her cos she will give me a percentage of her winnings while her winnings she finish up reinvesting in the machine.

SIL Broke your agreement therefore I would not give him anything. He refused to share...you do the same.
