A Gamble That Destroyed The Marble by Olusharp(m): 8:06pm On Jul 23, 2015
A Gamble that destroyed the Marble..



This story is for the gamblers,people
who throw the dice,shove the card
and know the winning number..




My name is George,my street friends
know me as Gking,I know you will
think the G stands for George far
from it,the G stands for Gamblers
therefore it is ok to address me as
Gamblers king.. Back then when I was
careless,tactless and reckless,when I
move about with dice in my left pocket
and a pack of cards at my back
pocket,those where my own tools for
my everyday business, it is either you
meet me at the joint where we were
battling not with axe,cutlass or gun,
but with dice,cards and money,and
other times we can create some
dubious show inviting gullible folks to
come gamble,imagine telling a person
to bet 500 Naira and he would win
5000Naira by just selecting a card,is
that ever possible? Some people
would say they believe in luck but they
end up shocked when they loose their
hard earned money,some will go as
far as praying to God before
selecting,pls what has God got to do
with this? moreover He has more
important and sensible matters to
attend to, I smile within when our
unsuspecting players think they are
winning until the hands of the game
change and start shouting Foul or is it
Fowl they want to say because that is
what they are,sorry it is late..
Only a master can beat a master at
the game, there was this day I was
going about doing the gambling
wonder then I saw this guy displaying
his brilliancy in the game and making
money, i decided to show my own
talent, atleast there is a part in the
bible that says "don't bury your talent
cause you will account for it" but
unlike this day I never knew I and my
devilish talent would be almost
buried, I move towards the guy,I
dropped my bet on his table and he
did likewise, a large crowd had gather,
I won the first,second and third
round,the guy use all his puerile tricks
at the forth and fifth stage as a master
that I was I won easily,then he
couldn't control his anger, a fight
broke out, I never for once believe in
black magic or voodoo, he hit my
chest and I dropped down like a log
of wood,the mighty gambler was
down, I couldn't stand,I was rushed
home,for month I lay on my back not
moving,not siting,not doing anything
then I was carried to a church where I
was delivered, it was then sense dawn
on me,"It was not as if I was born
with golden plate not spoon this
time,I was born with marble
plate,rather than shine and assemble
it proper maybe God in heaven would
have seen my hard work and given
me a golden plate but I gambled and
it all waddled away"



The end.
