Saturday Matinee - The House Always Wins

"That's Blackjack, the house wins, better luck next time Sir!"
"My luck has to change soon, another hand!!!"
"You remind me of me back when I was a gambler! I believed my luck would change too! I guess it did because look at me now!"
"You won big?"
"No I lost everything but I got a long term contract to work here at the casino!"
"Well I'm glad for you but I want to play one more hand! This is the last hundred dollars I have to my name and I know I'm due for a bit of luck!"
She dealt the cards as the Pit Boss stood near watching....
"Dealer has 17, house pays 18..."
He looked at his cards, a ten and a three....he had no choice....
"Hit me!"
She flipped a card....another three....
Again he had no choice....
"Again!"
She flipped another card and he stared hard at that 10 of hearts....
"26 sir I'm sorry but you lose again!"
"Wait, I know I can win if I play one more hand! Isn't there some way I could borrow money from the casino....I'll pay it back....there must be some way!!!"
She glanced at the Pit Boss who smiled and nodded....then she reached into her drawer and pulled out a legal looking document.
"There is a way...you can agree to work for the casino just like I did! The casino will loan you five hundred dollars. If you win you'll pay back five hundred and fifty dollars and you are free to go. If you lose you agree to work for the casino in whatever capacity they choose and any other conditions they may impose!"
"Yeah, alright I'll sign....there....one more hand...all five hundred..."
The Pit Boss discretely slipped the contract into his pocket and with a nod two large tuxedo'd men started toward the table stopping right behind him!
She dealt the cards...he had a 10 down and she smiled at him!
She dealt a card down for herself and dealt him a Queen...then dealt a jack to herself...this was it...his luck had changed he knew it!!!!
"Cards?"
"I'll stick!"
He didn't notice that the beautiful girls dealing at all the other tables had stopped to watch!
She flipped her down card...Ace of Spades!
"Blackjack Sir, The house wins!"
He felt the hands clasp onto his shoulders and begin to pull him away as he was stunned in disbelief!
Next to him he heard the Pit Boss on his phone....
"Get the room ready and wake up the Doc...we've got another Blackjack Dealer for him to work his magic on! Tell him I want this one to be a redhead and curvy...yeah...extra sexy....he's the type...he's gonna make a really beautiful dealer! He's already learned the most valuable lesson there is....the House always wins!!!"
