A new revolution in Casino(onlinexcasino) ! ! !
Posted on June 5, 2007 - Filed Under Uncategorized
The innumerable wonders, among the many blunders. The already had it, blown it. The nothing to everything slot machines. The make it or break it dice rolls. The do or die roulette. Lucks parody. The Gambling Beat.
Vegas strip, Atlantic City and Life, all synonymous terms for the Great Gamble. Luck, struggle, bets, loan sharks, jackpots all variables; what makes you gamble? Its 3 a.m., I am sitting across the black jack table in one the biggest casinos on the strip. I am about to hit. The only thing I own, the only money I have, worthless green, sits on the table, in the form of chips, placed on high, the bet. There’s smoke in my face, as sweat rolls off my forehead.
The dealer across the table waiting for the words, knowing very well the house has won. Odds are against me, they are always against me. He grins.
“Hit” – I say. I have lost. There’s a smile on my face, wonder why? Maybe I knew. I borrow a cigarette from the valet and leave.
Why is it, what is it that makes me lose everything I have, why is that the crowds never learn? I am still smiling. I haven’t given up yet. I am a risky man, that inflates my ego to heights that no casino has ever reached, or a dealer has ever seen.
I head for my apartment, knowing very well that I am going to be back again. Where will I get the money from? The formidable question keeps nagging in my head. I already owe my life, worthless as it is, to three loan sharks, who, if not already, will want me dead as soon as the sun rises. That inflates my ego even more, I am a risky man. I smile.
I reach my apartment. The door is ajar. I enter.
He just shot me. My red blood is oozing out of my chest. He is gone. I have lost. This inflates my ego even higher. Why is it that you gamble?
Life’s parody.
