Nick, it's a lot more fun if you actually earn it. "I got in because I'm rich" isn't something to brag about. "I got in because I'm damned good!" is something to brag about.

The one thing they always say about gambling is "never bet more than you can afford to lose." That doesn't mean just financially, either. It means psychologically. Sure, you can afford to drop $500 financially. But a few of those losses and a little voice is going to start to mutter "you wanker, what could you have given your kids with that money you're blowing?"
