This is the second of 30 pictures in the Dave & Buster's Event Challenge series.

The challenge it's for: APing More than the Machines:
"Work a deal with someone where you win them tickets but are compensated by them, whether it be a split of the tickets, food/drink, or otherwise. You must get AT LEAST 50% of the net profit value of your play (value of tickets at 0.4 cents per ticket minus cost of play at 10 cents per chip), and you must get at least $10 in value out of a single person. I will take you at your word on this challenge, though mad respect if you happen to secure a receipt showing proof of your gains."

You see me here having made a deal with our scaly friend, having gotten him to buy me a margarita in exchange for my services...not THOSE services you filthy-minded followers, me winning tickets for him!

This challenge is an easier one, but one of the more important ones. As an advantage player, the part of your brain focused on coming out ahead should never be turned "off"; if you've hit all the games you know you want to play for yourself, you may have impressed someone watching you to where you can play another game for them and get something out of it. For example, this video shows something I could do fairly consistently, but unless it's half-price Wednesday, isn't worth my time usually. But if I swipe someone else's card 10 times and knock out 10 jackpots for them, what I win from them is far more than the value of what I would have profited myself.

So be aware of your surroundings, your next source of profit or help might come from something that you DON'T stick your game card in.
