These Last Two Dollars
There aren't many forms of gambling where a balance of two dollars will do you much good except for bingo that is.

You know the routine whether you've got a couple of bingo bucks online or a couple of dollars left in cash. A bingo player can always put those last two dollars to good use. Luckily bingo games are cheap to play. You can purchase tickets for mere cents and play in several games.

Finding two dollars left in your account is sometimes comparable to finding the Holy Grail! Whoo hoo two dollars! It may seem a bit funny but think about it. There's no other type of gambling that will allow you to play for any length of time with such a small bankroll. Sure you can gamble one penny on one line on the slots but what are you going to win? With a penny you can often buy a bingo ticket and win 2500x your wager or more.

Once those last two dollars are gone, many of us are left to sing the blues. Here's a little ditty sung by Johnnie Taylor that captures the story of a woman and her last two dollars.

“A lady at the casino, she lost all her money. She said don't feel sorry for me. Don't feel sorry honey but if you wanna do a lady a favor, here's what I want you to do. Just loan me two dollars until the next time I see you.

“These last two dollars I'm not gonna lose. These last two dollars I'm not gonna lose. One going for my bus fare other one for the juke box to hear me some blues, gotta hear me some blues.

“She said I wouldn't be over here if my man had been treatin' my right. I came here to try to catch him, yeah. Cause he been sneakin around every night but I got caught up over here. Got caught up in this scene and I put all of my money in that doggone gambling machine.

“But these last two dollars…”

She had the right idea. Forget the man and play bingo!
