I gotta tell you my gambling story: I was in Denver on a business trip that took two weeks.

On the weekend, a colleague and I bought bus tickets to Blackhawk for $13 each, which came with a coupon for $25 worth of chips which were good at the casinos.

We got off the bus, walked through town to one of the casinos and got our chips. Then we kept on walking up into the hills, past some old mining shacks and graveyards and such, for about five miles.

On the way back through town we turned our chips back into cash and got on the bus for home. A lady on the bus complained that she had lost $200.

We made a profit of $12 each.
