Yea I know you're right Mickey. I really do wish everyone could win though. I hate to think what's makes me a living, costs others money.
I know it's necessary to maintain the biz.
Everything you are saying is true. Doesn't mean I have to like it.

I had to think about this about 8 years ago when my nother and one of my sisters visited me in Las Vegas. I was showing them one of my haunts, the Horsehoe. They bolted for the bartops and played video blackjack. You know, the even money on blackjack sucker game.

Should I have marched them over to the 4 Queens 10/7 prog. and stand over them and tell them how to play? My mother don't like that kind of stuff. All I would be doing is turning it into work for them, AND ME!! They didn't come to Las Vegas to work. So I left them alone and let them have their fun. Sure they dusted some money off. So what? The only thing I straightened them out on was tipping $5 for a free drink.
