I just wanted to state the experience I had this weekend. I am a strong, confident, intelligent middle aged woman that plays blackjack. I spent Thurs-Monday at Caesars, Ballys, and Harrahs. I encountered experts at each and every table I played at. Now, I dont mind experts but my feeling is this: If I dont tell you how to play, make any comments, stick to myself, not get involved in conversation, why do ALL OF THE MEN , all sizes, ages, races, and types THINK THEY KNOW MORE THAN ME AND FEEL ENTITLED TO TELL ME HOW TO SPEND MY HARD EARNED MONEY? Before I even make a play I am being told what to do. The crap I hear at the same time, this guy last night kept saying he had a Mother in Law hand, you want to hit it but know you shouldn't. That is just ignorant, disgusting and trashy, BUT he would have no idea my view of him just changed dramatically when he opened his big mouth.
The best was at Ballys Friday MORNING this 35-40 year old guy sits down at starts playing, telling everyone how to play and how he is going to make everyone money. I do my usual not talking not looking minding my own business thing and I jump out at a negative 7 count. He starts asking me if I am going to keep jumping in and out. I dont answer him. Do I need to? I dont want to talk to this a-hole. He keeps asking and I keep silent ( I said I am a strong non intimidated Norwegian decent woman who has a very tough Italian other half upstairs in the sportbook). Finally without looking at him I said you can stop asking me questions as I have neither the desire to answer you or speak to you. Then he starts chanting about negative energy at the table and how I only wished to have his life. So, I say I will spend my money how I want and you spend yours how you want. He goes on to tell me that how I play effects his decisions, his game and the table. I said then my suggestion is for you to find another table as I am still not going to answer you as it is none of your business what I do. He got belligerent and said it IS his right and he demands to know. I said your wrong ask the pit boss, who had been listening. The pit said, Sir, she is right, you may want to find another table the Misses can do whatever she wants while she sits in her seat and plays. Of course he jumped through about 6-7 tables in an hour.
3 more stinky., smelly, gross men occupied that seat over the next 2 hours. I do wish they had a rule on taking showers and being clean, not on jumping in and out of the game. ]
I cant tell who else counts. I am obvious, they dont suspect me and never will so I do jump in and out as I please. I sure do piss off alot of people which is why I dont frequent the 25 tables. I did Friday night at Caesars and got one of those older been there done that guys telling me how to play and finally I said Sir can you please just shut up I have 0 interest in your expertise. He said something really dumb and I replied listen I am a chemical engineer I am not an idiot and I am totally capable of making a decision of what to do with a couple of cards that need to add up to 21, this isnt f-n rocket science and if you look at your chips and my chips it clearly shows who knows how to play thank you very much.
Why do all these guys want to get in my face and tell me how to play?
ERGH ERGH ERGH
Going for more abuse Friday through Saturday but the other half is going to spend more time around me, I am getting to my boiling point and I am ready to throw a drink in someones face really really soon.... Or spray a can of Lysol on them. YUCK
