Lucky
(continued from page 26)
had to pick up something from the store but I’d be back at the action area. Walked into the store a bit crowded found the cooler and pulled out Lucky’s favorite bottled water. He likes Fiji and they had it. It cost a little more. I had to wait in line with about 4 people all with small purchases all using credit cards. The cash register clerk was a women who had a slight European accent. It made me think that the Casino’s employed a lot of foreigners. When I got back it seemed about ten to 15 minutes, Lucky was reaching for the money on the light and Chang was sitting in the chair his legs stretched out head down staring at the floor. Lucky walked back to where we were sitting putting the money from the light in his pocket, Gooch sitting in my seat. I walked up to Lucky to hand him his water. ‘Oh good you got my water I am thirsty!” I said what happened Lucky cracked the Fiji bottle top and took a swig. ‘Best water’ a second swig ‘Its over I doubt they are going to play again’. I said “Lucky I mean what happened I was only gone a few minutes” well “6 of the games were 10 ball breaks two times I made three consecutive 10 ball breaks and 5 games were cheeses on the 10 a couple of 2–10s games a 3-10’s a 4-10 game and the last game was 1-10’s the 10 was right up to the pocket no one could miss that combo. 11-0 The guy never shot!!!” I missed it. We put cues away and hurried out of the action room because we had all this money. I tripped over Gooch who was still in my chair. We went to the safe deposit box the casino has as a service and put money into it. On our way back to the elevator we stopped by the action room one last time and the Taiwanese player, Chang, was still sitting in the same position. It was nice that not too many people were watching Lucky play. Next time here he would still likely get action again. Vera Cruz (Sebastian Franco) and a few other were still hanging around as the event as it was winding down. One last chance at making money. They were holding finals in the main convention room. We went in to catch some of the matches. Burned out some we went up to the room to pack. We had to rest up and get sleep for an early morning drive. We set up the wake up call for 6am. It seemed like no time at all the phone rang we woke up. We got dressed and I went to get the car. Lucky had the Rivera bellhop take our luggage to the valet. Loaded up the car tipped the Valet. We decided to get breakfast some where after a few hours on the road. We had lots to talk about on our way to the next location. The adventure continues….. Good Luck
