Cheating cheaty cheatsI'm rubbish at cheating. I was asked to help run a stall at a local fair. We sold squares on a treasure map for 10p a go, with the one closest to the "hidden treasure" winning stuff.
I told my sister where it was. I'd not really thought through how obvious this would be. I've kind of avoided cheating since, what have you cheated at? Confess all, it'll make you feel better.

$1(00) chipsIn the 8th grade went to a casino-themed birthday party for a girl I barely knew (she'd invited my whole girl scout troop). At the end of the night we would exchange our chips for raffle tickets for prizes of gift baskets of quite nice shirts, wallets, etc. (her mom worked for Hawaii-based clothing co.)
The only two games I know are blackjack and roulette. After a while I noticed that there were $1 chips at the roulette table, but not at the blackjack table. Out of curiosity I played the $1 I'd won at roulette at blackjack to see what the dealer would do. To my surprise he appeared to be completely at a loss and wound up giving me my $1 winnings in $100 chips (the only chips with a 1 on them, apparently)! Naturally, I kept playing my $1 chips.... By the end of the night I had just about the most prize money, ergo the most raffle tickets...
I won two nice gift baskets (two tank tops, two wallets, and two small purses) and I still use the wallet I won to this very day.
