Only the spin can save me

Counting last night, I've now played 59 spin and gos. Here's my place count to date:

1  22
2  19
3  18


If the first place prize for a $10,000 buy in were restricted to $20,000, I would have lost $150,000 so far. However, I've only lost $10,000. What does this tell me? Two things:

1. without the spin occasionally bumping up the first place prize amount, spin and gos would have no profit potential whatsoever
2. even with the spin, spin and gos may be a losing proposition

Actually, there's a third thing :-)

3. I never would have played that many spin and gos if I didn't enjoy playing them
