Whenever a guy is gambling, you can tell he's winning because there are sexy ladies on either side of him. --and the turning of his luck is easily conveyed via a few disapproving glances from the ladies. When they leave, you know what's happened.
These girls may be dressed like tramps, showgirls, or even classy ladies, but they are always good looking and seem to materialize out of nowhere.
