Gambling is a big part of the quintessential Vegas experience. The early 20th century witnessed its evolution from a small railroad town with a population of only 800 in 1905 to a bustling tourist haven in the 1950s. Las Vegas has had its fair share of a love-hate relationship with gambling. So many choices we make daily are no better than well-thought-out gambles.
Admit it, those hours at the Blackjack table, when you feel a rush of excitement, there is nothing else that can bother you. But when done in moderation, it can serve as a fun way to reduce stress, keep your brain stimulated, and an occasional escape from your mundane routine. Gambling has been historically looked down upon as a negative activity because it can be addictive.
