    But if it's an off color comment here and there, I mean hey, it's a casino not a country club. Folks are gambling and cussing and drinking. You've got to have a thick skin.

    But then again, I'm a city person so I'm used to a-holes.
    One time I had to file a complaint with the police because a ploppy at my table physically threatened me. I didn't want to have to shoot the s.o.b. although he desperately deserved it. Then there was the time in my formative years, when I was backcounting a mickey mouse counter's table and had to suffer a battery of verbal assaults/threats. I backed down only because I didn't want to draw attention to myself with the pit. Aaarrrgghh!

    Oh gees. Yes, it seems that as with many things in life, you've got to keep your eyes on the ball, on the mission. The mission is to make money.

    If folks at the table may bring you heat, for whatever reasons, you've just got to get out of there. They're literally costing you money.

    With violent folks, well, you have to talk to security about that. Taking matters into your own hands may get you a free night in a bare-bones government motel, the jailhouse inn.

    Easier said than done, but you've got to keep your eyes on the ball. But still look relaxed and social and human at the tables. It's a challenge.

    More like people trying to start a fight with me. Believe it or not I can piss some people off really bad when I want to and sometimes without even trying. It is part of training them to play at other tables.

    The funniest one didn't really involve me. An old sad sack complainer type was complaining about this other old guy at the other end of the table. He wasn't about to take any shit and and mouthed back with equal force. A minute later the two old geezers charge each other with no attempt to go around me, as I am the only one in-between the two combatants. I was the meat in a pissed off old geezer sandwich. Being a fairly big and powerful guy the old farts never really got that close to each other but I had heads up for the rest of the shoe as they promptly had dates to dance with security officers. As the wallflower I made a lot of money playing with myself. It was quite comical.

    During a tournament, I once let out a small cheer when an opponent lost a double with a large bet out. The bet was big enough that he would have been in very good position had he won, but the loss effectively took him out of contention. He stood up, furious asking "Why did you want me to lose?". "It's a tournament", I said, thinking that the answer was obvious. This made him even angrier and he let it be known that I should watch my back. He eventually left the tournament area, still angry. I didn't see him again that night, but I did watch my back.

    I chose my words carefully for comic effect. But changing the words in a quote is a big no no. You could have done the same with committing a quote violation. It was pretty funny by the way but DO NOT CHANGE PEOPLES WORDS WHEN QUOTING THEM. Next time accomplish the same outside the quote.

    I only post the basics. Most things I have to teach can't be talked about in the public forum. It is nice to learn your attitude is once you used me up you can fuck me over. nobody will share sensitive info with someone like that.
