Preview.
By chance, I had the opportunity to witness a mini preview. Of our state's grand IR plans. Of human nature and greed. Of a man's $450,000+ winnings in merely 2-3 hours. Of unbecoming behaviors a far cry from their initial states of poise. Of well-heeled ladies who now spoke loudly and excitedly as dealers handed out cards and newly-found male companions placing hands on their perky arses. Of high-society mingling in haute couture gowns. Of spectators who only just held on to their glasses of champagnes and watched the others play. Of men who casually bought $400 worth of chips just like how we would buy our $1.50 jack n jill potato chips, and also men who asked if we accept cheques too when they ran out of cash.
