Dangerously close to losing your salary
I had a very vague plan to gamble on Friday, the day I'd be receiving the proceeds from the sale of my shares on Monday. However, scumbag brain came up with an even better idea - gamble with the money I'd receive today from my fortnightly pay.
So lo and behold, after work I withdrew $2000 and went to the casino. I saw the same young semi-attractive dealer there, and played at her table. I was up a bit and then there was a dealer change to a big Tongan lady. Slowly, I was up a bit more than $800.
There were two old Chinese ladies sitting at the end of the table talking about the numbers. They weren't playing, but on one spin, one of them rushed to place bets on the first and second dozens. It landed on 15 so she won. She couldn't reach her chips so I pushed them towards her. After the next spin, I heard her start complaining to her friend in Cantonese that she was short one chip.
The dealer knew what was wrong and started explaining it to her. I then started explaining it to her in Cantonese. This went on for a while but she was adamant that she was short a chip. When I suggested she could check the cameras, she refused, saying it was only $10 anyway.
That seemed to ruin the mood for me. The dealer then spun up like five 0-3 sectors in a row, and I had bet in three of them so lost a lot. The old ladies were talking about me, and I wanted to get away so cashed in the $400 I had left (plus still had $800 in my wallet).
I went to another table where I played with a dealer who looked a bit like the devil. I was only there for a short time before leaving with a $200 gain.
I moved to another table where the dealer was a large lady. I made a small amount before there was a dealer change. The new dealer was kinda funny, he kept saying "thanks" and little things like that. I lost a bit playing here, and was close to losing the lot.
Dude, you're going to lose your whole salary...
I didn't care. I thought about the pain Victoria had caused me and it drove me to be reckless. I had nothing to live for.
I placed a large bet on the 0-3 sector and...it landed on 32. I was already down a lot, but I had two straight ups here and three splits - 121 chips. That was $1,210. I had now made a $560 profit.
I cashed out immediately and left. I went home for dinner. I had come too close to disaster.
I can't gamble anymore.
