...."What were you playing?"

Video poker. I knew that in Nevada, video poker can't be
rigged to predetermined wins & losses. Every card dealt has
to be as random as if a real deck was being used (of course
they can make the payout schedule puny).

...."Next time, try playing more slowly and at least get that second free beer."

LOL! I mostly played 50¢ a hand. I only got a scant few
winners. And now that I'm 29 & "some" months, I don't down
those brewskies all that fast anymore either.

I hit my loss limit of $100 real quick & turned in early.
