It is all about who wins in the end. Allow mw to explain.
A gambler and his lawyer attend an IRS audit. The auditor says a person can not claim to have made $90 k gambling. The old man says he is a good gambler. The agent asks for an example.
The gambler bets the auditor $1,500 that he can stand at one end of his desk and whiz all the way over and ring the garbage can on the other side, and not get a drop on his desk. The agent says that is impossible and takes the bet.
The gambler begins to whiz and splatters to all over the desk, never came close to reaching the other side. The IRS agent is beaming and over joyed. His lawyer is sitting with his face in his hands mumbling. The auditor tells the lawyer that all is well. He just won $1,500 and proved the man was not a good gambler.
The lawyer looked up and said, "On the way over here he bet me $10,000 he could whiz all over your desk and you would love it."
