If Qui Gon won, he got the ship parts and Annakin. Did he also take the winnings? Cause Annakin comes home with winnings to Shmi. Watto also says "I lost everything" (he bet everything on Sebulba).<br /><br />In AOTC when Annakin walks up to Watto - he is on the street - wearing a pit-droid's 'head' for a hat. I'm guessing that Watto is on the down and out... living on the street. Is that right? Or is Watto just on the street at the time? Would years of living on the streets have made Watto susceptible to Annakin's Jedi Mind tricks now? Or is Annakin just that much more powerful-a Jedi - or was it is burning urgency to get to his mother what fuelled his apparent ability to perform a mind trick on Watto? <br /> </font> </td></tr> <tr bgcolor="#E5EAEF"> <td valign="top" width="18%"> <font size="3" face="Trebuchet MS, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif"> <b>CaptainMike</b> <br /><small>Member # 709</small> </font></td> <td width="82%"> <font size="2" face="Trebuchet MS, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif"> <img src="https://flare.solareclipse.net/posticon.gif" border="0" alt=" - " /> posted <script language="JavaScript1.3" type="text/javascript"> document.write(timestamp(new Date(2003,0,19,8,5,0), dfrm, tfrm, 0, 0, 0, 0)); </script><noscript><span class="dateformat-0">January 19, 2003</span> <span class="timeformat-0">08:05 AM</span></noscript><hr /> </font> <font size="3" face="Trebuchet MS, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif"> i thought Anni didnt mind trick Watto.. he just demanded to know, and Watto told him. <br /> </font> </td></tr> <tr bgcolor="#A3B9CC"> <td valign="top" width="18%"> <font size="3" face="Trebuchet MS, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif"> <b>E.
