    I did something kinda funny... and a real session- story

    Hi guys/gals ; computer not running so can't type good still / or use wrIte usIng my email that some members have ; so sorry I've been a little quiet this week. Anyways ; at thIs store ,early in this shoe today... running count In my head.... I get some hand like a 15vs 10 , and hit it and pull a six or something. .. lady ploppy ,across the table, drinking beer before noon , is amazed. I'm trying to keep a count while ploppy next to me splits and stuff. Dealer busts I'm paid.. RunnIng count goes to 3... all the talking and distractions and I'm thinking "three three three. ." Early beer ploppy shouts out something to me friendly like "wow congradulations on your 21 from that hit "
    In an attempt to say thanks to her I hollar across the table to her " three!" ... noone says anything ..sIlence... I'm thinking
    "Wtf !? Did I just say? "
    I laughed at myself for the rest of that shoe and hours later... the ploppies and dealer didn't even flinch though. I know they heard it... I couldn't believe it... I've read about that happening to counters but damn; that s--- is a weird feelIng when It really happens to you.. session ended good... lost many big bets in high counts but did well in medium counts to grind out another profit day even after Midwest driving expenses...hope all is well for everyone
    “It seemed to me ... that any civilization that had so far lost its head as to need to include a set of detailed instructions for use in a package of toothpicks, was no longer a civilization in which I could live and stay sane.

    You might be a little over paranoid. I'd guess that nobody (including dealer) knew what 3 meant.
