The Hideout


Recommended Posts

This whole waking up tomorrow night thing threw me off...Did you see the blackjack hand I posted yesterday? You're a dealer right?Only bought in for $5, with $5 min hand. Just trying to get my bowling money back for the night.From seat 1, first card A, second card A (2, 12, 22 being my options). I couldn't split because I only had bought for 5, so i hit. another A (3, 13, 23, 33). Hit again, A(4, 14, 24, 34). Hit again, a 6 for 20. I stand and win. Have you ever seen this before? I thought it was quite remarkable, but I don't play much blackjack...
on your side, yes remarkable :club: here's some of my personal favorites that i've dealt to myselfHand #1:showing a 2, best hand on the table is 16, everyone naturally standsi flip up an Ace, and draw to this: A 2 2 A A A...for 18Hand #2 (strangely enough, this is the very next hand, but a new shoe):showing a 6, everyone stays on their 17/18's and one guy has 20flip over an Ace, and get: A 6 5 A A A A 5...for 21Hand #3 - the worst i've ever done:showing an Ace, no one takes the insurance, i don't have iteveryone busts except one guy who stands on 19i flip up another Ace, and get this: A A A 4 5 A 2 A 4...for 20the worst hand a dealer can pull on you is a 13-card 21A A A A A A A 5 A A A A 5if you ever see that, run, and don't play with that dealer ever again

wow, you're mean. :D What's your favorite game to deal? I would think blackjack is pretty easy, you said craps is really complicated, which I can see. i guess you work at a casino, so you probably deal hold'em too?

nah, poker's the only game i don't deal (yet...whenever they have a class for it, i'm there though)my favorite is probably pai gow, because i like playing it...tips usually suck tough (we do tip sharing, so its not a huge deal)we have "rapid roulette" which is roulette, only all the betting and payouts are computerized, so all you do as a dealer is spin the ball...its pretty easy, which is nice, especially if i don't feel like "working"as long as i get a good variety of games for the week i'm happy

I would think poker would be one game that you'd be dealing for sure. It's pretty simple (I think) and a lot of casinos have lots of poker tables.I have buddies who insist they are "good" at roulette i just let them keep thinking it because they just dont understand. What kind of rotations do you do? 1 hour at a game, then switch to another? or all monday on blackjack, tuesday pai gow, etc.?

poker is separate from everything else, and we're actually way overstaffed for poker dealersrotations, basically its 1hr 20min on, 20min break, and so on...the shift i work (8pm-4am) means i'm usually on 1 game all night, unless it closes...there's one floor supervisor in charge of table assignments (the "pencil") and they decide who's dealing where on any given night, based on game knowledge...so i have no clue what i'll be dealing until its time to go to my tablewe tried the 1hr here, 1hr there, etc. rotations (they call 'em "rubber band strings") once, but people got confused, so we stopped

Yea, i really hated pushing ATs in that spot, but I pretty much had to with my stack
Right move, as far as I'm concerned. Kinda wonder what the guy who folded had, he really wanted to call. Triple up there would be great!

Yeah, I stay up writing bits for the show...wanna fight about it?Announcer: It’s time for everyone’s favorite part of the BC and Clint Show, “Gone Hollywood” – Presented to you by Producer Budweiser (who gets most of his info from trash magazines laying in the studio)Bud: Thanks big voice guy. Umm, so apparently Angelina Jolie is in the news, I guess her bodyguard shot someone, or something, I don’t really know, I wasn’t paying attention. All I know is Angelina, come on, time to get naked in your movies again, I mean, I’m falling asleep over here. Remember your golden age? Gia? Gia however you call it, I call it fun with Lesbian models …now that’s a movie. Mr. and Mrs. Smith…meh, I guess the guns were cool and you blowing stuff up was nice too, but come on, what’s a little breast action gonna hurt?Ok, onto other news. Jessica Alba…she’s featured in People in the section “Just like us!” You know that part where they show celebrities doing stuff normal people do. Apparently this week she got the paparazzi all riled up because she bought a frappachino at Starbucks. I’m sorry, I know she’s hot and everything, but what the hell do I care that she spends more on coffee than I do on dinner for a week? Is that supposed to impress me? Make me care about you? Bah…I despise you and everything you stand for! The pure waste that is your life in how you live through material excess with all with your trendy clothes and latest cell phones and hip clubs, you make me SICK….and by the way, Fantastic Four SUCKED! (But umm…on another note, if you’re listening to this, call me, I still think you’re smoking…and I would treat you reeaal good (creepily said))I’m Producer Budweiser and I’ve Gone HollywoodI think a lot in this bit will have to come from my voice and how I read it. It cannot sound like I'm reading from a script, it has to sound like I'm bored outta my skull having to review celebs for the station.Funny? Unfunny? Better I hear it from you than anyone else.

I'm thinking of changing it to a different celebrity...Paris Hilton is too overdone tho....And Jessica is, and always will be my first love. So, she knows it's all in good fun. I'm thinking...Scarlett Johanssen? No one bashes her...cause she's so lovable and all..
not enough mentioning of me...
Umm...BBFIDTS?

I'm accelerating up this curve pretty quick, i outpost bigkg and rsm, not sure about ricker. Best part is, if you check my post count, i've got 767 (768 now!). 701 in the hideout. I hate the rest of this forum, general poker is a joke. I'll post in another off topic thread occasionally, and read in strat, but that's it.// The Hideout \\ is all I need.oh... and the girls below... i really need them.
