I was able to hit a big jackpot the other week when I was playing poker with my Russian friend. For some reason that I couldn’t exactly recall, he raised the stakes to our game where he said if I win, he will give me an all expense paid trip to his home country and have me signed up with one of those flight training attractions that he always bragged about that his country could afford to do. It was one of those features in Russia where you get to fly a mig fighter jet on your own and I think they call it topgun.
Anyway, we were playing the normal poker and I guess it was my luckiest day ever because it was the first time that I was able to get three aces and two kings combination in my hand! To make the long story short, I was the winner of that bet and he guaranteed that I will get my winnings since he said he is a man of his word. But then again, I was just wondering because as I remember correctly, he wanted to go back to Russia for a vacation and was telling us that he wants to find someone who would want to go with him…
