I enjoy low stakes gambling. I'll walk into a casino with $20-40 bucks for gambling, buy a few drinks, and see what I can get. If I win enough to break even and pay for the drinks, I came out on top. I'll throw 5 bucks down on a parlay during Football season once a month or so. Outside of that, I couldn't imagine the stress of higher stakes. I do it for fun and maybe turning 5 bucks into 30.
