Maybe the Casino Isnt for Me

Last night I traveled to the newest attraction in Pittsburgh. The brand new Rivers Casino. It is basically right around the corner from my place and overlooks the city of Pittsburgh and the 3 rivers. It had its grand opening this past Sunday so we wanted to check it out.

I didnt want to go. It was already 10:30 when we arrived and I wasnt feeling very well and was extremely tired. But I had no choice as I wasnt the driver. We walked around the casino and did the typical ooos and ahhhhs looking at all the shiny new slots and bars. Out of 5 of us, only the bf and I wanted to spend a little money and test out our luck. So I found a fun looking slot machine and parked my ass in it. I generally only like to play the nickel slots as I dont have much money to spend on this type of stuff. Well this machine was all fucked up and i couldnt figure out how to really work it so after I lost half of my money on it within the first 2 minutes I decided to pack up and park my ass at another slot machine. Mind you, while this was happening, my bf decided to spend $20 at the casino, and had almost already doubled his money.

We both found new slot machines and started playing again. Once again with 2 minutes all my money was gone. And yes, once again, by this time, the bf somehow already made almost $50. Clearly, I wasnt as enthused as he. But somehow he has luck on his side at these places whereas I dont ever seem to have the lucky roll of the dice.

I doubt I will be back there soon.

I don't mind going to casinos - if you're not into the gambling thing it can be fun to walk around and watch people lose THEIR money. It's all luck - no skill needed.
