Your "I want to strangle this ploppie" story
Here's my "I want to strangle this ploppie next to me" story.
This guy to my left got two queens of heart in an LL10 game but didn't have the side bet out. The old guy to my right was so enthused that he started gushing about it to the dealer, and then called over the pit boss to take a look at what an awful tragedy that the guy didn't have the side bet out. I mumbled under my breath "shut the **** up old man", but obviously could do nothing to stop what was about to happen.
What happened afterwards? Yep you guessed it. A washing of the cards and extra thorough shuffling of the cards for the rest of the session. The dealer was shuffling pretty poorly before then.
WTF did this old guy hope to accomplish by informing the pit that the 200:1/1000:1 side bet cards were close together? A portion of the winnings as a consolation prize?
I'm sorry but with all the idiot old people I see in casinos....it makes me start to hate these mindless sheep even more than I hate the casino. For ****s sake, don't these people grow more wise as they age? Is this what I have to look forward to when I grow old?
I will be awaiting the morally indignant response from blackjack.info's resident moderator of political correctness.
EDIT: Well I guess this is way more tame than my "I want to become a serial killer of ploppies" thread.
