So sad, gamblers anonymous must be bursting at the seams as well as the casino, ever hopeful they wiil lucky number would come up. Victor my friend you did the right thing, to leave - what realism there is in this dynamite poignant write. Hugs, Blessings, Jennifer.

That’s what gambling can do. Some of us have been there, hopefully most have learnt to resist… Belle

Your "Casino" has few words but is so very true for many. If you go and win then leave. Don't get greedy. Have a great/blessed day..............

In the casinos, how much of money is lost as people grow more and more greedy ! Gambling becomes an addiction for many. Great monoku , dear Victor !

Gotta agree with Evelyn's opinion here my friend. I have never been to Vegas and never intend to go. Got better things to throw my money away on than to line some big time Casino owner's pockets. Really cute write though. God Bless, JB

Your terrific monoku highhlights problem gambling with wit and humor, Victor. Guess some people never know when to walk away, and know when to run! :)
