The great gambler

So what if you loose money on a slot machine! Now stop laughing. There are people on this earth who bet n loose money even on slot machines....Yes I do not play roulette, black jack, poker...nothing. I like to loose money in smaller proportions at one time and ya of course finally loose everything I have.What has that lady in the bar got to do with me loosing the money. Poor girl. Or is it me....I was thrown out of the Casino for yelling at her. The girl even threatened to call 911. Never thought I will involve in anything that has 911. Do not know if I pleaded her not to call 911, was so drunk am not sure what really happened. I guess my friend quickly intervened and cleared up the things. But did that stop me from playing that stupid game. I went to another casino called Casino Royale. The first one I went is called "The Stratosphere". This Casino had a rule, anybody who looses money on slot machines will not be allowed to play in their Casinos. Does that mean everybody else is winning money and am I the odd man out. Then why is not everybody playing these slot machines. No time for logic in Vegas.

I moved to this new casino and so did my luck. It started going the other direction, from down south to up north. Is it gonna go all the way to arctic. I kept on pressing the buttons and was clocking jackpots. I started with a modest 35 USD. Guess what is the number on the machine now, 378 USD and still climbing. There were 6 people surrounding me and literally screaming at top of their lungs. Not that 378 is a really big amount by Vegas standards but it does not happen often on a slot machine. Okay I kept going and then wanted to know what is the maximum that one can win from this machine. I mean the maximum possible. On the machine the number is 999 USD. Holy crap. 999...!! put 35 and take home 999!!I thought is that going to happen to night. Somebody from the spectators ..oh yeah there were a good number of them as I reached 568 USD.....tapped me on the shoulder. My friend who always plays every other game except this slot machine, has also returned and stood beside me watching me winning, feeling jealous of my luck. There was one more guy who is jealous, the pit supervisor. I could see his green eyes. Somebody from the audience said, dude take your money now and leave the casino for good. I looked at him,like you p.... off. It is my money. Who the hell are you to say that. After this I lost a group of spectators. Never mind. Who cares about the people, when you have free money coming your way. I reached 745 USD. Now my friend also started saying, buddy time to go. He said, "You won more than 20 times the money you invested . Lets go".
I did not pay attention to him.I looked at him, "you looser"!! Now after that episode, I came down by 89 USD. Is the back of my luck pinning, after climbing so much. I started thinking, should I listen to my well wishers. Thought I will leave after recovering the lost ground and I was right. I climbed back to 750 and then quickly reached 850. I thought I will leave this casino only after striking at the top.

My luck ran short of gas. I started coming down and down and even more downk to 448 USD. People around me started booing me. I am not the one to relent so easily. I decided to get all that I lost. Slowly started gaining again. But not much. It became really pathetic now. I was to 2 digits. I thought should I leave at least now!..No...so stupid that I am, started playing bigger combination s so that I get more money when strike score. I was wrong, I was back to 40. You should look at my face then. People around me laughed at me...I was all alone because my friend also joined the chorus. I pressed the collect winnings button and came out. Everybody play to win. But what anybody should remember when gambling is, when to stop playing. Never mind, what happens in Vegas stays in Vegas, it does not come home with us!!!
