***Similar situation:*** Went in for work group lotto tickets at $20 each for $180 total. They sent me to the state line to buy the tickets. Since I took the time after work to drive all that way, I bought $10 of my own tickets. All the group ticket numbers were cataloged and a copy was presented to each contributor. Not one of the group numbers hit. I, on the other hand, hit for $120,000…said not a word!
I know it’s a comic, so not going to comment too much. But “rolling slots” for someone, with expectation to be paid whatever is rolled is…weird, to me.
But, damn, man did Dave dirty; could have *at least* given him his tenner back.
Ever since the slot machines turned digital the odds of winning have dropped much much lower. Meanwhile, the number of ‘wheels’ that all have to align have multiplied.
Many moons ago, a friend gave me $5 to play craps however I would normally play it. Gave him $80 back, and he bought me a couple beers. I also played my own bet next to his, so we both came up.
If your going to roll slots for someone just agree that you’ll split the winnings on that roll if it’s a winner. Simple solution and they’d both be happy and better off.

Bankers be like:
Dude, give Dave a $50 and say he quadrupled his money. He’ll be so happy he’ll never question anything about it.
