Casino...a place you win or lose....

I went for my facial today (Saturday), did the rejunevating treatment. I feel myself rejunevating from my wallet rather from my face hahahaha.....but anyway it worth a try. It does glow if i took a picture.

After my facial, I went for a dinner with my family. We went all the way up to Genting just to have our dinner. We had steamboat at Genting Permai. The soup is a prawn soup, not the usual chicken stock soup. A bit different but like always after I took steamboat, I definitely have to take supper hahaha...

Got pursuaded by my sister to buy the facial mask, the negative ion material....Well just see how good it is going to do for me.. I dont believe in direct selling or its product because there is always a side effect on their stuff. Anyway will see. The great moment of the dinner is when my sister and brother in law shared with us some of the malay jokes...

1. "Dalam dunia ini...binatang apakah yang paling kedekut"? ~ Kuda kerana bila dia berlari "kedekut kedekut" hahaha

2. "Dalam duina ini....binatang apakah yang paling seksi"? ~ Zebra...because ia memakai zip di bra hahaha

3. "Apaka kereta di dunia ini, tidak dipanggil kereta"? ~ taxi

4, "Sekiranya terdapat suatu kemalangan....drebar dan kereta semuanya sudah mati, tapi apakah yang tidak mati"? ~ road tax hahaha

After the dinner, we went to the Star World casino at First World Hotel. My god, I almost suffocated myself in there....so smokey, stench smell of smokes and bad ventilation. I went around tables to tables to see the game. I dont gamble because I do not have any interest in that sort of game. And see many people in the casino...full. Some looked cheerful but most of them looks like either they want to kill themselves or they wish to kill others. Very fierce looking and some look so sad. I told my sister...my goodness, it looks like loan shark business area.

How can the owner cannot be a millionnaire? The casino opened 24 hours a day.....hundred thousands or so people came in within that hours and spend maybe 1000 ringgit per pax (i am talking about average). You basically just need 10k people to come in a day to have a million. I see many money presented on the tables and over the counter. I started to ask myself....they put before them thousand of their hard earned money, how much did they expect to get in return? My answer to them is NIL. Because based on possibility wise, the moment you started the game....you have already lost 70%. This is not based on my opinion, it is based on some researched study in mathematical analysis of gambling. Meaning to say, you have only 30% of return if you are lucky. That could explain why the shark loan could easily make their business in the casino. I went around tables to tables, from one end to the other.....each table is always the banker will win more than the player, that is 1% for player and 99% for banker.

Sooo the wisest thing to do is to resists gambling. Of course many people would said it is just a game to release stress. For me, gambling is a big NO NO. I hate it and I dont agreed with anyone even to use gambling as a leisure. It is just not the type of thing I would have in mind.

Ok enough said.....got to sleep now. Cheerio.

p/s: Our new maid has finally arrived....oops our domestic helper. Finally, no more house chores....not that I did it all this while hahaha I am a spoilt brat!!!
