el_jefe: how to react to dealer mistakes

[Wolverine]

I can share this story, as I doubt they could go back and find it....

I cashed in for $1,000 and they had their "house" breakdown for this money amount at a $25 min table ($500 black and $500 green). When I asked them to give me $300 green and $700 black, the dealer had to change her piles around. I managed to get $800 in black and $300 in green! The pit even looked it over and okayed it! Well, when I had my stack of chips given to me, I palmed a $100 chip and held it in my hand (game was dealt face up). I waited until my players card came back to me, and stood up, put the card and the chip into my pocket. I hadn't played a hand and was up $100! When I went to cash out, funny, there was an extra $100 chip to cash in!?!

That is a good story. It reminds me that I should probably start paying more attention to the chips I get back. I am bad to not count them myself.

I was playing a 6D shoe heads up early one morning when a guy approached the table. "Great," I thought to myself ironically, "another good situation shot to hell!"

However, little did I know I was about to learn a brand-new (to me) AP technique!

The guy tossed a $20 and a $10 on the felt and said, "Give me a green and two reds."... and the dealer DID! He played a few hands, breaking even, and left with his 14.2857% bonus.

Greeat story. Sounds like the old, "Do you have two 20s for a 10?"

But, if I were you, I'd check how much of a bonus he left with! :-)
