I consider breaking even when leaving a casino a huge win.

What do you consider a "win"?  If I only stopped on when I got a Royal, I would be there a very long time...
 
Normally a hand pay will do it, but if I am still down after my first hand pay I keep going until my next hand pay.  They have to come sooner or later.  To me it makes no difference if I play 10 hours on 1 trip or 3 hours on 4 trips.

I'm with you marie meijer. If I can return home even or close to even, I consider that a win. That means i played hours of VP, $1 (tips) drinks, and not a worry in the world while playing. Now thats a winner.

I play in as short a time periods as possible, minimum 6 hours, or until Im broke. Any handpays I get become fond memories. My friends at the base call me a degenerate gambler.
