about its all Byoncee's fault

you may notice that i don't like losing. even if i now go an attend a golf match which i have never done, i will hate to lose. losing in many past games has not change my feeling on this.

I was invited to go to a casino special event- A trivia night.
I went with Genady and igor and as we entered the casino, Gena mentioned that you need ID if you win to collect and i checked and had no ID, people in front of us of ID screened, but i was not. should i be insulted? we passed the 1st check points, exited on the other end and got to the 2nd check point, once again no ID, but no check. 
we are sent to the dirty harry group. each group is a movie name. 
got a shrimp, skipped the Asparagus salmon and the chicken with mushrooms finger food and let the games begin.
10 questions and you can bet on the answers all in the categories of entertainments. there about 15 teams and for six questions- most gets get everything right. some of the questions i was clueless about , but there is enough knowledge in the group. questions like what Hitchcock ended with O, what song written by Ringo star was  sang by others in an 80's show.
things look good for the team and then question 7 comes to break the tie. in some 80's family sitcom what was the name of the daughter added later in the show. why is this even trivia?  . we didn't know and the questions got very hard all of  sudden. after the bonus round we were the 5th team not that far from first. now we had to gamble on points for the final questions- on female Grammy winners,, we figure that at least one team will get an answer so we must be the max and we do. which two female artists won 6 grammies in a single night. i am sure my friend google knows this unimportant questions but that was not allowed. Igor Knew Addle - - we debated  numerous vocalists and somehow Taylor swift was our false answer. this competition hd some nice prizes- had  we put Beyoncee's name , we would have finished 3rd and split 600$ , but ended with nothing. i continued to feel unlucky and donated 10$ to the slot machines.
lost again... but i gained valuable Grammy knowledge... and had a fun evening

 
p.s - see the Martian, interesting movie...
