I lost $100 in 2 hours at the BlackJack table - Anhil8tor - 05-30-2006

I was holding my own until the liquor caught up with me...



I do now understand about playing like a dick. Four kids from New Iberia showed up at my table.. They were hitting on 17 with the dealer showing a 3 and generally playing terrible.

100 in 2 hours is pretty fucking good...

i would punch faggots for hitting on 17. happens once, roll your eyes, happens twice stand up and leave...seriously. dealers know how stupid it is, and i'm sure if you asked the dealer what he'd do, they'd say the same thing.

I love the irony of 8 having to sit through someone playing terrible blackjack when he said he sits at 3rd base and plays for himself.

that is exactly what I was thinking. I "mentored" the guy once he hit on 17. The dealer punked him by telling him he should never hit on 17 and then asked him why his friends would let him do it. I showed him the ropes I think.

I also didn't sit at 3rd base.

How much were the tables? I'm going to vegas this time next month and will be heading straight to the single deck blackjack tables.

I played on the $5 a hand table.. it is six decks... but they hand shuffle. I laughed my ass off at some old people that came sit next to me. they were playing a table over and a vietnemese (sp?) dealer came on. She delt blackjack three times in a row. when they sat at my table.. my dealer asked how they were doing.

Pops said fine till that chong delt herself blackjack three times in a row. he made sure he said it loud enough for her to hear it..

Also I busted a dealer trying to take my money on a push.. it was only $5 but the bitch was rude the whole time... she grabbed my $5 spot and I said.. hey wasn't that a push. She had to call upstairs for someone to come down and OK it.

dealers have no reason to be assholes...they should be happy to give the players money, keeps people at their tables and helps them earn tips. i can't believe how stupid some dealers are.

Blackjack is fun but costly. Last week I lost 1000 dollars in a 15 hour period. I saw everything people hitting on 17 but only, because there was a face card showing and people splitting face cards when low cards were showing. Those are the ones who pisses me off. They have 20 and they split it because a 6 or lower is showing. They deserve to lose.

Losing $100 in 2 hours must have been a "sloooooooooow" game.

splitting face cards is for idiots, you DO deserve to lose.

It's the smart thing to do when the dealers showing a low card.

You are right. You always stay with 20.
