The A*ole in a go for your own joint
I am in an Indian casino where the dealers go for their own tokes and really play it up if they have any high toking regulars at their table.
I sit down at their highest limit table with two other players who the dealer obviously knew and take the seat at third base. After a few uneventful hands, I get a soft 18 vs dealer 6 and double, while the two other players stay on stiffs while also betting for the dealer. I hit a 10, the dealer turns 16, hits a 4 and before he goes to take everyone's bets he holds my 10 high in the air and waves it for the other players, doing everything but announcing that everything that just happened was my fault. I do not give one about fault but do care about this uprofessional attitude and told the dealer to his ear that that was unprofessional and that I considered him an asshole. He did not care, he was playing to his two regulars.
Two shoes later we get one of those shoes where over the first several hands the count is quickly rising. Everyone is hitting stiffs and making hands as tons of little cards have been coming out. About half way through the shoe I have max bets on the table and unlike most max bet situations the dealer is getting stiff after stiff and showing a 4,5 or 6 nearly every hand and I am also getting garbage but he must have busted 5 times in a row and the count was just about remaining the same. Finally, the count begins to go down and I score 3 blackjacks in 4 hands and perhaps win the following 4 of 5 hands after that. All told, it is a $12,000 shoe and as it is going on I am telling him what great cards he is dealing but it is against all I hold dearly to toke assholes. He is steaming and I am thinking that I could not have planned this revenge any better.
When his relief dealer showed up I did put a sizeable toke bet on the felt. The relief told him to deal another hand, mistakenly thinking that toke would be for him. I quickly corrected her and waved goodbye to my old friend, giving him something to complain about in the breakroom, I'm sure.
