It's very different, you pay the house to play poker against other humans. You know how much you pay, and you agree.

..you enter the casino and become the 1,500th visitor of the day. Along with confetti and colorful balloons, you win a $500 voucher!

No financial investment...or is that too unrealistic a scenario:unsure:;)

Oh I see, in a casino, that kind of scenario is realistic, sorry I didn't catch it.
In that case, you're in front of 2 "scenarios":
- You can leave though you just got there and haven't experienced anything you went there for.
- Or you can stay and use that free money to have some fun but keep what you came in with.

Good answer. Covered costs lift the party mood. There's no better way to celebrate.

It depends, could I play poker in the casino? , if the answer is that if I played a little I would win what I think I can win and I would be happy, but if I can't play poker in that casino I would immediately go home jashahaj, I don't like machine games, in the long run I'm going to lose, I've played a couple of times and I didn't like the experience.

I risk $100 for fun, who knows I might still win, if I don't win, I'll still have $400 for something useful.

Nope. He did not invest little money and won that amount. He only was lucky by being the 1500th person to walk in the casino that day (post #24). Let's say some kind of raffle.
Would that make you change your mind?

I think so too! Who knows, maybe the voucher is just the beginning of a lucky streak.

Cash out and go home. I would do this because based on my experience so far, when I didn't do it this way, it always ended in a loss.

It's necessary to have an adventure once in a while, whether at slots or poker, Although I prefer poker, For me, $500 is a reasonable amount to start an adventure that could lead us to a prize many greater٠٠٠٠٠٠٠%, good luck :)

Explain your decision!
Locking in profit is what would be right. But we rarely do right because it is quite boring and banal :)
Maybe I would have made a different decision and continued playing but I would probably have gone to another casino.

What would you do with that amount of money instead ...(don't say you'd spend it on an online casino:sneaky:)?

I agree. Such experiences/adventures make life sweeter and are simply a part of it.

$500 is quite a large sum for me. Therefore, I would exchange the voucher for cash without hesitation and continue playing according to plan next time, taking my bankroll management into account.

Its a profit. I spend the playing money and keep winnings separate. Perhaps its time to go home as a winner for a change. Redeem the casino voucher & keep it for expenses or until the next time we are back in the casino.

It's better to divide those $500 into ten parts and, following this primitive bankroll management strategy, try your luck 10 more times :)
