I went to a casino a few years ago with friends. Watched one lady at a 1-armed bandit acting like a robot. Put in a quarter, pull the handle, a few coins came out, repeat. She showed no emotions at all, and acted just like a robot.
Me? At the end, I put in a $1 for one, won $5 and got a coffee at a Starbucks. (down payment – giggles)
True Story: Many years ago, I decided to buy a Lottery Ticket. Went up to the Grocery Store Manager’s Counter to get one (That’s where we had to get them at that place back then); Was told they were out of them. Never tried again… ☺
Seen one guy spend a 100 bucks and won 10. He cheered about it as being a winner. I congratulated him informing him he was still 90 dollars behind. He didn’t even blink.
We live near the Res. People flock to their casino, saying that they won $200, $300, or whatever. They don’t mention how much they had to spend to win the money.
Whenever I feel like gambling, I take $5 and give it to the next “street person” I meet. Who knows? He could be Elon Musk in disguise and waiting to split his fortune with a generous person. What? You think that sounds sillier than any other form of gambling?

And he only spent $400 in lottery tickets in order to win.

Instead of spreading his winnings on the floor and rolling in it, he rolls down on the floor and then throws the winnings up into the air.

I had a friend who won $10,000. He was married… Want to take a guess on how much of it he actually got to use? ☺

Part of me would like to win big on a lottery cause I would like to see how many “long lost” friends or relatives come out of hiding.

Note the difference between winning in the lottery and winning the lottery.
