$20 at Treasure Island

Was there with my girlfriend (now wife). We had just eaten at the breakfast buffet, and I saw a lonely croupier at the roulette table, and felt pity for him, so we walked over and sat down. I laid out my twenty and received four red chips. I played them on numbers (I don't remember which ones), trying to hit it big! He asked me if I was sure I wanted to do that... (Are they supposed to talk you out of stupid bets? Maybe he had more pity on me, than I did of him...)

Any ways, my numbers didn't come up. I blew twenty bucks in one spin (not quite the high-roller) felt about an inch tall... the croupier even gave me a second chance to rethink my bet!

That was the first and last time I played roulette... but she still married me!
