The value of gambling money

[Ed I]

Ran into a regular from the poker world while checking out a new sporting goods store in town. He mentioned that he quit playing in a certain room and that it was their lose since he was spending 2-3k a month on the slots plus his poker loses. Said he was in the store looking to buy golf clubs for his little grandson but the store did not carry clubs(hunting, fishing and camping only). I suggested he check across the street. He replied ,but their expensive!
