Leisure World - Casino Cruise

Alvin and me boarded Leisure World at Harborfront on Monday morning.

He was very excited as he hopes to win some money to clear his debts. I gave him a morning call at 6.30am and he already woke up and was about to leave his Bedok 1 room flat.

I do not know what debts he has but I do hope he can win some money.

We paid S$48.00 each for the ticket and had breakfast and lunch on the cruise.

We changed S$300.00 worth of playing chips so that we get a refund of S$30.00.

I had a hard time winning back my S$300.00 thru Black Jack and later I realised I won S$200.00 at the end of the day.

Alvin was not so lucky. He lost S$450.00.

We left early at 5pm instead of the original departure time at 8.30pm.

I told him not to continue playing as he might lose even more.

I could tell from his face that he was very sad and disappointed but I cannot help him much.

Today, he sms me informing he is going to the cruise again. He hopes to win back his losses.

I can understand his feeling as I lose nearly S$2,000.00 the first time I board the cruise.

Gambling can be addictice.

It can make one rich and can also make one bankrupt!
