    What's the Worst Situation You Ever Found Yourself In After a Bout of Losing Gambling
    A Couple for me:

    Took a trip to Vegas and lost everything. EVERYTHING! I didn't have any money to pay for my airport parking (luckily, they let me mail it in). I had to write a hot check to pay for my gas to get home.


    Again, after a trip to the local riverboat casino in Louisiana, lost EVERYTHING including my rent money. Took out 2 pay day loans to pay the rent. Wrote a hot check to get food supplies. Took 3-4 months of scrimping to get back to living somewhat normally again.

      Geez, maybe next time you shouldn't take EVERYTHING with you to the casino.

      As for me I just endure being called an asshole by the wife. I never put any living expense at risk, it is all just extra spending cash.

            I've found myself embarrassed to myself for having missed key handicapping factors. It really sucks when that happens, and I am ashamed to admit it has happened much more than once, although progressively less as time goes on, which is nice.

                I do know someone who was driving from Denver to Vegas and had to turn around and come home after losing all of the money in Mesquite.

                I'm sure they're not alone in that feat.
