I go to the casino to watch my hubby win ... he's the lucky one. Though I did win big once on my birthday in Aruba. Best birthday gift ever ... paid for my vacation & then some. Excellent capture of the casino, Jim. Love your treatment.
Jimbob, the only gambling that I did was in the elderly home of my (late) parents: playing bingo! I wasn't lucky because I wasn't even able to win a chocolate bar, lol.

I took a roll of quarters in an Indian casino in Wisconsin once and when it was gone we left! Now horseracing wagering is where I put my handicapping skills to good use and sometimes clean up! Nice image Jim - slice of life category!
Nice street photography shot Jimbob - been there on a few ocassions to see live entertainment - the venue is initimate and you can always get a good seat. In addition Jim, i like the shadowing on the boardwalk:-)
I've been to a few of them. Mostly Vegas. Always had a daily limit to gamble with. I was usually through that money before lunch and had to spend the day at the pool :(
Jimbob, your post work is excellent, I really like the complete capture, from the actual casino to the goings on in front. I have only gambled a few times, and set my spending limit low. Why should we help Trump, and others like him get richer! :) tigs♠
Lol, the title made me think of that commercial "Can You Hear me Yet", fantastic work and a very interesting & so many things to look at. Glad to hear you didn't loose any money there, I'm not a gambler either
I like the diversity of people in this image. The photo really gives the feel of the boardwalk. Never been in a casino, although we have loads of them here.
Jimbob - You may have captured what is left of the Atlantic City revival, as a number of the boardwalk casinos have closed due to lack of business, caused by competition of many new casinos opening in bordering states. Atlantic City was quite run down, perked up by the casinos, and now, sadly, returning to its run down state again. With you, I'd take a photo or two and walk on by, saving my money for some of the Atlantic City salt water taffy. :-) Thad
Never been in a casino!...I was always unlucky at dominoes too!
Good urban one here JB!
