How Not to Win Big in Vegas.
1. Play four rounds of multi-hand video blackjack. Freak out that you just lost $28 in 3 minutes. Stop playing.

3. Resort to playing penny slots, even though you have no idea what's going on or what the bets are/what the payout could be. Rejoice when you win big - twice - to the tune of SIX DOLLARS PROFIT. Wonder why you didn't start here and come out $12 richer from your trip to Sin City, instead of about 80 bucks lighter.
4. Consider sitting through a two-hour time-share pitch for the chance to score "free" tickets to Rita Rudner. A gamble if there ever was one.
