Very well done! aYou bring out the thrill and disappontment of gambling very well with your words. I am sthe same way when I go to gamble, thrilled with the chance to win but well aware that I will lose. The biggest reason I do it very rarely!

Hi Sue...this is such a fun poem with a good ending that made me laugh. You have used the required words cleverly and if I didn't know better I would have thought you used them just for the sake of the poem. Good luck in the contest....blessings...chey

Sixteez!

I love your writing. I don't know how you can write with such rhyme and meter, especially given the words for the contest. Good luck in it.

    Fred,

    You're causing me to blush! I credit my rhyme and meter to entering loads of various contests so I could learn what the heck it all meant. And to Domino, who taught me so much - by observing his writing and his reviews, which didn't let me get away with anything! HA!

    Still studying and learning. Thank you so much for your lovely review and compliments. So glad you enjoyed this poem.
    With regards,
    Sue

This was a very cute poem. It flowed nicely and used all of the words required in the contest. I have played blackjack in Vegas. It is so much fun yet I always end up loosing what I have won. That is why the casinos are so beautiful and we keep coming back.

It has a very good readable beat, and a well thought out meter. I loved your use of the required words. They are unforced, and blend well. Good luck in the voting booth.
