If you were at the casino and had doubled your money would you walk away or continue to play the slots until it was gone?

I'd probably walk away. I've only been to a casino a couple of times during my life, not because I don't want to but because the closest one is three hours from where I live. I always take a set amount with me and leave my debit card at home.(I don't have any credit cards) The amount I take is only an amount that I can afford to lose.

I like the slot machines too. I never learned all those card games. If I won double, I would be so happy that I would walk away and count my blessings.

The only way I wouldn't is if I won double the amount within the first hour I was there. Then, I would store half of it somewhere and only play with the other half. After going that distance, it wouldn't make sense to give up and go home.

:-).

It would depend on how early it was and how long I was planning on staying there. I would only go with a set amount to lose. If your ahead a good deal is to return what you came with to your pocket and never give back more then half of what you win.

Once your losing streak starts it doesn't get better. If you have deep enough pockets the only game you can always walk away a winner is roulette.

Being at a casino would be scary - I think I'd have to plan it out beforehand. I'd have to bring a set amount of money, and if I ever got up to a certain amount I'd stop. Just having the possibility of "winning it big" haunting you the entire time you're there, pressuring you to use just one more quarter - that's scary.

I don't see the point in casino gambling, I think I'd rather do scratchcards or the lottery.

Money is hard enough to come by, so if I won double what I started with, then yes, I would walk away. I have been to a casino once or twice and I never won a thing. So winning would be like a dream come true lol.

Go on take the money and run. flickr.com/photos/mrchriscornwell/262773... youtube.com/watch?v=jZwLsvO6YTw.

I know I'd keep playing. I have impressive luck ..but also impressive addiction to winning lol I've won quite a bit of money gambling but also lost quite a bit because I can never make myself stop. My mind starts computing the gain...Okay I won this much if I bet this much I could get this much and then use that to win this.. and so on and so on.As a result I no longer gamble.

I'd walk away. Honestly, if I was playing slots, I'd be shocked that I managed to double my money at all; usually it's a slow plod down to nothing. If I kept playing, it WOULD be gone, no doubt about it, and probably really quickly.It just isn't worth it.

I should be happy with what I had!

I'm not sure I'd have the nerve to do what it takes to double your money in the first place. That being said, I'd definitely either stop playing entirely or take a significant portion of the table. I might take 75% off (my original sum plus half my winnings) and see how well I could do with the rest.

If I lost it all after that, I'd still be up by 50%.

I am a walk away kind of person. The odds at casinos are always in the house's favor. If they weren't then the house would lose and more people would win.

This obviously isn't the case. If I were somehow able to even spend money at a casino (which I consider akin to tossing it in the toilet to begin with), and if I were able to double the money, I would grab the husband (or some other cute guy nearby) and head out the door. We have actually done that a few times, particularly on slots.My husband somehow managed to double his money on some video poker machines and we collected the money and left.

Staying would just have meant giving it all back to the casino. Most people will win and then give it back to the casino, and that is what they bank on. I like to be a rebel and leave.

I like playing the slots....the key to having a good time is play with what you can afford to lose, and be willing to lose it. As soon as you walk in the door you are at a disadvantage. If I doubled my money, I would stay and probably be willing to gamble until I left with what I came with.It would also depend on how much money I had brought.....doubling to $40 is alot different than doubling to $2000..

Casinos spend a boatload of money on casino security. Most days, the casino staff has very little to do except keep their on on security cameras and scan for suspicious activity. What if casinos actually leveraged some of their existing technology to make sure the players are having the best time possible.

My biggest "Pet Peeve" was always waiting for machines to be "filled" -- and the casino never seemed to staff enough people for the busy times, meaning you were waiting up to 30 minutes in order to get your payout. Further frustrating, was the fact the machine could not be played while you were waiting. Thank goodness for ticket out -- ticket in.

However, there are still reasons slot techs need to be called --- and a call for a tech has become so infrequent, that it is almost more difficult to get one when they are rarely needed. I was recently playing an Aristocrat machine which was beside another machine with a flashing light (they call these "candles" in the business). That machine sat there, unable to be played for 60 minutes.

Eventually, I became annoyed, and reported it to the cashier cage. The slot techs just missed it. Why can't the casino use their high-tech security cameras with their paid guards to spot flashing candles and help to alert slot techs on a timely basis?

What ... and actually use the equipment to benefit the gamer instead of just monitor them?

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
