Leandra

There's no picture of Leandra because I once promised her I wouldn't post new pictures (I've also made that promise to other dealers, even if they forget with the passing of time).

_essence of Leandra



Talking of promises to oneself and others...

I broke one of my own Playtech rules when I met Leandra.

After past experiences I had made it a rule to myself that I wouldn't have any new favourite dealers that were learning Italian ... because I knew they would be leaving English tables soon.

The first time I talked to Leandra I realised she was already an Italian tables dealer. She was just working a couple of English tables in her shift. But I found her so funny and memorable on that first day I looked for her again in subsequent months. Indeed, for the first few months it was 'our thing' how we only met once a month.


She was always correcting my lazy typing and English mistakes, even when they weren't mistakes . It was so endearing coming from her.

I will remember Leandra for being a such a funny, classy, beautiful, and intelligent lady. Who did her best to be herself within the rigid Playtech regime ... wearing black nail polish and dark lipstick when she could 'get away with it'.
