ANGELO FROM TABILISI, GEORGIA


My story takes place in the city of Tbilisi (Georgia), where I lived for three years with my father. We used to go to the casino in the city often, but I’ll never forget this one night because the next day we had to catch a plane to Italy to attend my sister’s wedding.

After several hours of gambling, my father noticed that he had played all the money we had, including the money intended for my sister! We only had 100$ left!

My father took the remaining $100 and played video poker games, making 10 to 100 credit bets. After 3 or 4 games, my father held the A, Q & J of hearts in his hand and discarded the other two cards. Next thing we knew, we were hearing jingles and the machines siren lit up. My dad had been dealt the K and 10 of hearts, scoring a Royal Flush. We won 5,000$!

I still have the photo from that casino session, a day I’ll never forget. We were able to give my sister a more beautiful gift.
