She was up $0.80 at one point, but chose to reinvest her winnings into more spins. This proved to be a strategic blunder, though, as she walked away penniless and disheartened about 15 seconds later.

like daddit for the fediverse but we all eat pizza with ranch and say "ope" a lot. all dads and non-dads are welcome. ranch on pizza is recommended but not required. ope is mandatory.

My Dad let me gamble my pocket money away on a fruit machine once.
I begged him to let me play it, so he agreed as long as it was my money. He explained to me how it would work, and what would happen, but I didn't care; I had seen people win loads of money. Obviously I lost it all and was devastated.
I very quickly realised that gambling is rigged, and it's a mugs' game.
