Phew that was lucky

Post by greenbelter »

Was on way home from dental hospital today. In lots of pain after extraction I decided a little punt might take mind off it. Went to a crappy arcade and played WOW which gave MS after about 30 in for a 40.

Then decided to play a golden game for old times sake but bad idea as it took the 40 back and another 60 too. Was about 100 down off crappy machines and was walking out because didn't want to chase anything and still in painand not wanting to go cash machine when I realised I had a quid left. Thought what the hell i'm 100 down so threw this in bullion bars. Anyway got 5 off the 1st machine and thew a quid in the middle one and got 25 and then got streak for 25 on end one too. had about 50 in coins and had a cheeky go on the WOW again as it was about 1 hour since I got MS and someone else had been on it. Anyway I thew 10 in for a 50 MS. After a few other wins I walked out with 120 which wasn't bad ince I was down to my last quid.

Never gamble when you're in pain though as I was being too reckless and it almost cost me.

Then was meeting for parents for tea still in pain and kiling time got stuck on a FOBT playing blackjack. The twat had strung me along for about 30 mins and I was eventually 50 down. wasn't happy as parents rang asking where I was. Made up some excuse and said i'd be 2 mins away. Anyway in desperation I thew 25 on two hands and dealer bust giving me 100 quid. Did a runner and met folks for tea. What a shit day as no winnings and a whole lot of pain and hassle. Should have jut gone to work and stayed out of trouble.

naa I was bleeding heavily from the gums and in pain decided I'd had a lucky escape. Plus I lost the 1ner over two machines. Silly I know but someone else will probably get lucky.

What did piss me off though was when I went the lou and to get more change I asked the cashier to watch my machine or put a card on it but no she switched it off at the wall.

Ah ok, fair enough, a bit messy then. You probably just eased them up a bit for the next punter, although that big flash was maybe just a credit away :wink:

Switching off at the wall? That's a bit extreme, what's the next level? Build up a cage to stop sharks getting to it?

Depends on chip/JP. Can go huge, but equally you can get fooked over on them.

You've got a nerve saying stuff like that. This thread is rapidly decaying into nothing more than an act of filling the page. Anyone with any wisdom would brush it aside.
