"Lady Luck, God and Bob" © 2000 J. Mitch Hopper

---

Bob is the unluckiest person on the face of the planet. But, the voice in his head promises a change. Here is just a taste!

The roulette wheel loomed closer. The table was busy but not full. There was still a chair vacant. The chair next to it was occupied by a buxom brunette with bad teeth. Her breasts were parked on the table before her, but Bob saw only the spinning wheel and the green felt gaming table. He sat down, dropped a twenty and received his chips. He let two games play without placing a bet. Black seventeen and double-zero. He placed all his chips on black eleven. The croupier flipped the ball into a spin. It danced and bounced and landed and bounced again and then came to rest.

"Red sixteen." The croupier scooped up Bob's chips.

"Aw, shit!" Bob's explosive expletive was drowned in a chorus of similar dialog from the other players.

"Bob, this is God. Listen to me. Play red nine."
