Apr 2020

1. Gambler signs a life insurance policy to be paid out to the casino if they die of COVID.
2. They will be branded on the hand to show that they have been in a casino, so they can't go into any other business for 1 month following their last visit to a casino.
3. On their first visit to a casino they will receive $10 for each hour they stay. On the next visit, $20. And so on. You are put on the sports board. People bet on which day you die. Odds change depending on how many hours you have spent in a casino.
