Default Lost chip costs me 5k.

I hate long stories so i'll try to make it short.

I go to Fallsview Niagara. Grind 5/5nl and win exactly 6k over 4 days.

Bump into friend (literally) on the way to the cage and drop a stack of quarters. One is missing (presumably under the foot of someone).

I find the lowest variance(?) game, Pai Gow Poker, place $25 and lose. Martingale it up until I am down 4900.

Take last $100 (I may be a degenerate but I'm definitely leaving with some profit) and place it on the Don't pass on the roller directly to the right of me and win.

I place $100 on the pass and hit a 9. Buy the 4 and 10 for $35 each. Roll for a while, parlaying each time. A few more rolls and I'm back to 6k profit. Pit boss change. He knows me and tells me that I'm an idiot for playing out here and to get my ass back to poker to win. I ignore and 7 out when I hit some jackass' hand.

He says Bad Beat Bro in a 'i told you so' way and says he'll be generous on the comps.

Brag: None.
Beat: Lost 5k chasing $25.
Variance: Free room next trip up.

Bumped up to 2 spots. Whenever I had two strong pairs or better, the dealer would tie by getting some [censored] straight in the back.

The funny thing is that you pay a 5% commission on winning Pai Gow bets... so if you'd scooped on your first $25, you would still be at only $5998.75

THEN what would you have done??????
