Not gambling. Casino's are state owned here. Yesterday, I joined W there while he was aspiring to make it past the waiting list for Graz' Texas Hold 'em tournament. Unfornately no luck there, but at the Blackjack table, I watched him start with 55, and end with 130. In those 30 mins, I also watched a Chinese lady next to him demostrate how this habit can be a sickness. She must've thrown out 400 euros out in 20s, 50s, 100s... she often bet on W, and then critisized his moves, which was highly annoying. He snapped back at her, don't bet on me then. Spreche kein Deutsch. He says it so often. But on the flipside, he gave his end-of-rotation presentation to the big bosses last week, and his manager and I were blown away. He has such eloquent speaking skills. Such poise and careful choice of words. Impressive.
