This Month's Kicker



Every other year, myself and a few buddies go to the "Mosconi Cup" in Vegas. It's an exciting pool tournament between 5 of the best Europeans -vs- 5 of the best Americans. This past December, it was held at the Mirage, where I stayed. I was playing 25c Deuces for 2 days, and on the third day, I felt I was going to hit, so I played the same machine for about 5 hours, not losing a dime. The Americans had just lost the CUP, and I went back to hit the same machine. About an hour into it, I had to go meet some people for dinner, so I headed towards the elevators across the casino. As I near the Revolution bar, I notice the high roller room, and I go in for a quicky. I said to myself, I'm going to drop $200 into the $5 machine and that's it. The first hand I get a pair of J's. The second hand, I get 10HJH, and hit deal....BOOM. Royal Flush. $20K. I'm so dazed; I get back to the room, and realize I forgot to cash out the machine. So I go back down there, go back to the machine, and hit Cash out.. and the manager says "now that's luck."
