Yeap! The casino! Went to Genting Highlands with my family. It started to become misty and getting worse as we drove up to the peak. Very very windy too. At least 30knots, I think. Visibility less than 50metres.
Parkings were 99% full. Spent like 30minutes to find a place to park. Lucky!
Hotels were fully packed anyway. Arcade already closed. So my siblings decided to stay at MacD while my parents and I went to casino.
Fyi, Genting has quite a few of casinos. 5 I think. The first one I went was located in First World Hotel. The biggest one of all, my dad said.
Bloody hell. It was really huge! Goddamn! Even if you are not interested in gambling, you should also come and get the feel! The slots machines, oh man, I think there were like thousands of them. And not to mention the table games. Blackjack, pokers, baccarat, pontoon, roulette, etc.

I didn't gamble. What, you think I lied? ;p
Only my dad. Not me. Not my mum. I walked around by myself, went to few tables and check out how they played.
The slot machines here are very much like arcades. They don't use coins. Instead, they use 'debit cards'. I saw an uncle with 210bucks loaded card playing that game. Guess how much he won in the end after 10minutes game?
160cents.
Blackjack table seems to favour the bankers quite alot too.
Chinese has a saying, bet 10times, lose 9times.
Just a glance at all the looks in the casino, only 10% of the faces looked happy and satisfied (and kept gambling). 85% looked sad but hopeful that they will win the next round. The rest? Hopeless. Grumpy.
My dad? He's in the 10% league. Shot down "8 tigers" in an hour. Lucky for him.
Tigers mean thousands. When we say: Go up the mountain to hunt for tigers, it means go to casino to win $$.
I only visited one third of the casinos. Gonna conquer all of them next time! ;)
