but how much did you lose?
Considering I've only been doing it 2 or 3 times a week since I started my job (a month) and i've won 150$ id say I'm easily up over 100. I've never put in more than 5$ a time I went. and I would say one out of 3 I at least make my money back

I have an uncle who is the luckiest guy in the world when it comes to the lottery. He won $1 million in the Washington state lottery back in the late 80's. He continued to work at the job in a sawmill until an auto accident in 1993. He still play's the regular lottery every drawing and has won almost $100,000 since then. He plays $5 per drawing.
He also plays scratchers and consistently wins. My mom is the one who purchased his tickets for him since he can no longer drive so she knows how much he spends and how much he wins. As often as he wins he has only won $1000 once on scratchers, everything else is $500 or under.
I personally have never won more than $25 on a scratcher, but everyone gets him tickets for his birthday and I have purchased tickets that got him $300 twice.

Just curious how much are the tickets he usually gets for the scratchoffs? I won my 100 on a $10 one and $50 on a $20 ticket

The cheapest he buys are $5 tickets. Most of his purchases are $10 tickets. He doesn't buy many of the more expensive ones, but will every once in a while

Going to Saratoga Race Track this weekend.
looks like a pretty decent card this weekend...might have to see if i can make some time to place a bet or 3 was planning to save my meager winnings from the Haskell (Monmouth) for the Travers...but that's like a month away
just checked my YTD Spires statement...i'm a whopping $+18.33 so far i did cash like 5% of a winning Derby Super but funded some losing P4's on my buddies account. considering the terrible night i had at the casino a few months back i'm probably about even for the year (i should probably keep better track of that )
