Tom and I went to the AmVets today and had a hamburger with fries. I played my usual $40 in the pull tab machine. Won $10 and put it back into the machine. Won $1. Gave that to the Bartender. I only spend what I bring and if I don't win Big, I play back what I win. It all goes for the Veterans and that makes it okay to lose.
BUT...I always play the 50¢ tickets. That way it takes longer to lose. LOL There was another lady there playing the $1 tickets...until she saw I had not won big, and of course had quit playing. The lady puts in 100's of dollars while she is there...She started playing the 50¢ tickets and won the $250. It was all good for me. Glad she won, but the bartender thought it was awful. I didn't have a problem...I play what I play and walk away. Happy she won.

You basically lined her up for a win. Sometimes in a casino I will see someone who sat on a machine for a long time finally get up and walk over and put a few bucks in. It usually will spit for me, but never life changing money of course.

She was there playing on the machine before I got there...No idea if she had played the 50¢ stack or not, but she quit playint it when I came in..I watched when she went to the machine. But once I was done playing she DID start playing it..no problem...I would have done the same. LOL

@Ghostlady That's gambling. You just never know when the big one will come.

That's great that the money goes to the Veterans. Maybe you'll win big next time. Have a good weekend.
