Howdy
I was playing at my usual haunt and not exactly setting the world on fire,
This fellow who I have seen there quite often has a habit of smoking those thin
sweet smelling cigars. As he walked by with one in his hand I prayed he
would not sit down next to me. Unfortunately, he landed on the adjacent row of
machines.
Meanwhile back at the ranch, I was pulling pat hands with four to a royal.
It could be my imagination, but this seems to happen more than a computer says
it should.
I resisted moving my seat as the toxic fumes engulfed the area and settled
on just thinking ungodly things.
Finally I reluctantly decided to play musical machines rather than cough my
head off.
I moved to a machine a good distance away and put in my ticket. The glare
from the overhead lighting made it a challenge to see anything clearly. I
decided it a go nonetheless.
Well ..after being down about 50 bucks I draw a A K !0 of clubs. Not exactly
the primo 3 cards for a royal pull.
Bingo..Qc Jc . Pure luck!
I was almost tempted to thank the cigar smoker, but what is left of sanity
overcame me.
