$1000 to not gamble an entire weekend in Vegas - Page 2

In terms of what he would spend and what not.....he gets everything comped. Meals free. Room free. Flight would cost him about 250 round trip. Let's assume that I'd pick this up too. It's turning down $1000 to see the sites of Vegas by yourself. Let's not forget that he said he wouldn't even do it for $2000.

I could easily spend a weekend in Vegas and not gamble.

I was at the last two WSOP's for their entirety and barely gambled at all. A weekend would not be a problem.

$1000 to go clubbing/get hammered/eat good food/get a hooker? This isn't the worst thing I could imagine.

I used to gamble quite a bit, but partially b/c of my job I've been in casinos a lot. I no longer have any real urge to walk into a casino and gamble (at least table games). in fact I rarely play those game now, except at Casino Royale. I still like to play poker live, but haven't played online in months.

Aren't you gambling by making this bet?

I don't see how you can win.

It's not really a bet....just a hypothetical.

is poker considered gambling? If poker wasnt included, Id do this for 100$. Ive only played any casino game other than poker the weekend I turned 21, , no poker? probably Id need the cost of the trip, plus a G.

Meals and room comped? I could probably do this. Throw in comped strip clubs and golf, and I could easily do this.

comped striped clubs would be the most dangerous thing I could think of.

Poker is considered gambling. (in this case)

For $1.99 I could live in LV and not gamble for a year or longer no problem. Wouldn't be difficult in the least.
