I was at the MGM playing some quarter VP in a section of the floor with a
really friendly cocktail waitress. She wouldn't stop bringing me
drinks. I asked for the first one and the others kept flowing.
Beautiful. It might have been because I tipped her a decent amount on
the first one or because I'm incredibly handsome. It's one of those two
options and I'm betting it's the latter.
I was more than a little
tipsy at this point and this extremely well dressed, good looking woman
sits down at the machine next to me. From the way she smiled I knew
what was up. She was working. I didn't feel like getting hassled and I
didn't want to leave my waitress. After a nano second of internal debate
alcohol won and I was staying no matter what.
Since I am a
moderately friendly person I say hello, smile and got back to my game.
It was obvious she was trying to chat me up, but my single syllable
answers weren't giving her any help. So she started acting casual,
messing with her purse and phone. Eventually she put $5 in to her
machine and started playing. One coin at a time.
My waitress
comes by with another drink for me. The lady orders a water, doesn't tip
and continues to slow play, one quarter at a time.
About ten
hands later she gets dealt four to the royal. Holds the four and the
fifth card pops up. Boom! A royal flush, the most beautiful hand in all
of video poker. Since she was only playing one quarter at a time
(instead of five) she got 250 coins instead of the 4000 she would have
gotten if she'd been playing with full coin in. $62.50 verses $1000.
Ouch.
This time she screwed herself.
