So we were at JANugget this weekend...
Aside from starting OFF hitting a 5c royal...
The 50th Anniversay for the Assosciation of The Blind was having a big convention there...
I was playing at the bar and a guy came up next to me, and the bartender (Bill) asked him if he needed help, and Bill kinda looked at me, and so I asked the guy what he wanted to play, and he said Poker, so I selected Single-Line 25c 8/5BP, since on the single-line, the cards are the biggest (and I actually thought about it; those particular machines have the biggest card displays in the casino)
So I noticed he was feeding in 20's...and I thought maybe HE thought they were dollars...
So he continued to play (he was LEGALLY blind, not stone blind; so he had to have his face like right on the screen, but he was actually playing correctly)
After a while, I noticed he got up and started to walk away, but I noticed he still had $20 left in the machine; so I tapped him on the shoulder and told him he still had $20 left, and he said thanks and sat back down and played some more..
After about 30 minutes more, he got up again, and this time said "Well, I can't do anything with it, you can have it." and I told him he STILL had $20 left, which he told me I COULD HAVE IT; but I just hit the cash out button and said "No no, here, just take this ticket to the cashier." Which he did...
SO, we'll see what happens...
Karmacially Correct Choice: Hopefully it'll keep going!
Tim-
Regardless of the Karmic impact, you did the right thing. The true sign of integrity is doing the right thing when nobody is looking. Also, since you are a regular at the "N", you have involuntarily become a goodwill ambassador for other casino patrons. I think all of this adds up to the "why" you have been hitting all the Royals lately!! Keep spreading the good karma.
