Re: I just lost 19K playing Party Blackjack

[ QUOTE ] But dude-the screenshot [/ QUOTE ] I once ended up in Atlantic City with a group of guys I didn't know well. They were prep school friends of the college roommate of a good friend of mine, and most of them were Italian guys whose fathers had jobs that were never clearly described, but may have had something to do with construction. This was back when I was first starting to play poker, and I was just there to play 2/4 with my friend. Since I wasn't going to drink, I was the designated driver for the night. Two of the guys got plastered, lost about 30k collectively on table games, then disappeared with a hooker. I eventually had to pick them up from a different casino in kind of a hurry, since one of them had apparently stolen the hooker's purse while she was still occupied with his buddy. He had, of course, promptly lost her money in the pit. Not realizing the situation when I drove over there, I had valet parked the guy's Escalade, so I spent what felt like an hour waiting for the valet guy to bring the car back, convinced we were going to get shot by Guido The Killer Pimp at any moment. Those guys had a disposable camera, with which they had documented their tryst. I'd imagine that would qualify as a B+M screenshot. scrub [/ QUOTE ] This story didn't get enough attention. |

[/ QUOTE ] Seriously. How have I never heard this? On a similar note, a good college friend of mine went to AC with some underage kids. One of them wins 25k and tries to cash out. Has no ID. Casino manager comes and explains he has to spend it or forfeit it, they wont give him cash. So they get a suite, hookers and blow, clothes, and a buffet set up in their suite. He actually sent a limo back to Princeton from AC to pick up some of his friends who weren't there originally. The 25k lasted about 3 days. |

Re: I just lost 19K playing Party Blackjack
Guys,
Have those of you who are talking about how retarded and not fun this is ever played blackjack for large amounts of money? Obviously not, since then you'd know how fun it is. As for the edge, the games a lot of 2+2ers sit in are way more -EV for them than blackjack. |
