He had given me $50 to gamble with and I quickly lost it all while playing Blackjack, I then pulled out $50 of my own money and eventually I worked my way up to over $150. I decided if I dropped back down to $150 I would stop right there, and that's exactly what happened. I gave my uncle $50 back which meant I doubled my money and I was completely satisfied with that.

I've also bought lottery tickets (most or all Powerball), more than I should have but not a huge amount. I've only won $4 each on like 2 or 3 numbers

Any prizes you get from it are just bonuses (most of them are cheap toys you'd never really use anyway and can probs find for 50p somewhere) with it just being a social time, so I don't see it as gambling since the amount is set beforehand and all used. I don't play the stuff like the crane game though lmao because it's boring, expensive, and rigged in an RNG way.
