I used to enjoy gambling, but money has been tight since I started University so I haven't been in a while.
I used to be a part of a small card-counting team and we made some alright cash. It was too stressful though for the relatively small return. I'd rather go with friends and just have fun. That's when I've made (and lost) the most money.
The most I ever made in one night gambling was about $600. The most I've lost was $300. I'd average $60 - $100 a night. Overall, I'm sure I came out ahead, but losing $300 in an hour was an eye-opening and I cut it down after that.
There's really nothing like walking out of a casino a week's pay richer, though.
