I played blackjack at the casino over the weekend (they have a great day-care) in Tunica.
The first hand a guy next to me got a jack and an eight. The dealer had nine showing. He decided to hit on the 18. He got a three! Winner!
I took that as a sign of what would happen to me and kept hitting if I had less than 19.
Eventually, I lost all of my money, including the $21,543 I got advanced on my credit card.
On my way out, I stopped by the office and told them I’d gambled and lost everything. They said they were sorry and gave me my money back.
They told me that this happens all the time and they were more than happy to give me my money back since it was really their fault that they advanced me the money in the first place to play games that you could lose money at if you took stupid risks.
Good thing. Betting all that money when I couldn’t afford to…what were they thinking?
