If that vendor ever played poker, it would SUCK, as he would probably chase the fish away. GEEZ.

except that the street vendor provides a service to the world and the poker player doesn't

fleecing the unknowledgable is good while teaching the unknowing to protect themselves is bad??????

ok, most table captains do it because of some ego issue or something, but a few genuinely view the game in terms of a fun challenge (not profit) and like helping the ignorant. I've met a few of the latter type at local casinos. They're an interesting lot. In no way were they what I considered experts, but they knew enough to help people with major leaks.

This pisses me off.

I try to write you guys this nice little story about a street vendor and suddenly everybody's reading stuff into it, like everything's got to have some "double meaning." Not everything has to be about poker all the freakin' time.

dbitel, you misinterpreted everything I said in this thread. Just stop talking -- I'm embarassed for the both of us.

As this is the moral of the story. Be nice to idiots.

Re: The Parable of the Street Vendor (tl;dr)
 

When I was a kid, I worked as a parking lot attendant at a local restaurant. There was a guy with a hot dog cart nearby, and I would grab a couple dogs & a coke for lunch now & then.

One day he gave me the "you're a moran" schpeel. It pissed me off, so I punched him in the face, and then stole his cart. I had free lunch for the next couple weeks.

(Nice post, Pokey)
