I take my "spending money" in my left pocket in cash. My winnings go
in my right pocket.

When the left pocket is empty, it is time to walk away. Both
pockets empty...time to get in the car and go home!.....vbg.

A very sensible solution, Ward, and it actually can pay off.

The security guard at my office was telling me last week that the prior
weekend he went to a local casino. He took only $30.00 to play the quarter
slots. On his next to last quarter, he won $27,000. He didn't even play
the last quarter.
