Oh that brother of mine!

Ok, so the only guy I know to say to Phil and I, "lets go to Flamborough Casino" and then When we get there says "Can I borrow some money" That's my brother, Tom. So like a good sister that I have been to him, his whole life, I give him 50 bucks. So we walk in the casino, I get carded and they didn't think I was 30 almost 31. I go off my own way to play Deal or No Deal which has been replaced with Life (but they are still 5 cent machines, phew). I sit down and loose 40 bucks. I go check on Tom and Phil, they are down 200. So Tom goes to the washroom. Phil and I play this quarter machine to try and win our 200 back. When we get to 50 bucks, I cash out and go back to my Life game for 5 cents. Phil, "you will never win back your money of 5 cent machines". We sit there taking turns. We play and play and then all of a sudden, I hit the bonus game. I won the freakin JACKPOT! I won our money (200 bucks) back and then some. So now we have 274.00. We take 250 cause that's what we all together started with and Tom goes plays the remaining 25 bucks. He sits down at a machine and Phil and I are rehashing the whole "you will never win our money back" conversation cause we are excited I hit the jackpot. Tom is at this point three spins into playing our 25 dollars. and BAM, TOM HIT THE FREAKIN JACKPOT!!!!! We won 757 dollars!!!!! You'd think people would walk away and go home. Have you met Phil? that's right, we went and played like 20 bucks in another machine. We chose the dollar machine now. Big spenders. Two pulls, and we hit the "free spin" on wheel of Fortune. We win another 125 bucks. So we think we are on a roll so for kicks we throw 30 bucks into a 2 dollar machine, that's right 2 dollars. At this point I'm freaking out cause how dare they waste our winnings. We ended up winning 120 bucks on that machine. So finally we decided to give up and go home. So all in all, we walked out with almost a grand. Now here's the most funny part of this whole story. Remember I said tom borrowed 50 from me? Well we split the winnings in half. Half for Phil and I and the other half we gave to Tom. So Tom goes into a casino with NO MONEY and walks out with just shy of 500 bucks. ha ha ha. We howled about that all the way home! Needless to say, Phil and I had to pay our photographer tonight for our last installment which was free because the casino paid for it and Tom is using his half to pay for hotel and gas for our thursday-saturday road trip to the states!!! Tom is the only guy we know who walks into a freaking casino with not a penny and walks out 500 dollars richer!!!! oh god it is funny!!!!

  1. I am going to copy and paste your blog and read it back at the house and then comment the next time I am in the city to use the internet, because I have no time now.

    That's Thailand for you... also no Ronan Keating poster sitings yet.

  2. That is awesome that you won so much money, and hilarious that Tom did so well for himself considering the circumstances! Too funny.
