Evidently not. I read it on my phone and scrolled right past that paragraph, I guess.

Oh, goddammit. I shouldn’t read stories on my phone.

This reminds me of the book Positively Fifth Street, written by a guy who was doing a magazine piece on the Binion murders but happened to be in Vegas covering the trial during WSOP and wound up finishing fifth in the tournament that year.

I appreciate your leniency.

Guilty as charged. But sometimes, that’s all you can find.

Don’t go hungry, go Hungary!
