When I deem to drop a dollar in a Slot machine I kiss it goodbye before I drop it in...as I consider it to be gone.

Tabby, this is also a game of skill played for money. But not as easy to become proficient in as poker. But like poker, all you have to do is be a bit better than those you play with.
