    Time for............ retorts to ploppies!!

    In honor of the other thread..........

    "You ruined the order of the cards!!"

    If you "know" the order of the cards WHY DIDN'T YOU SAY SOMETHING BEFORE I SAT DOWN?!?!

    If you know the order of the cards, give us some advice of what's coming next!! And we'll see what happens!

    If I split Aces instead of Tens and the order of the cards were the same after doesn't that also ruin the "order of the cards?"

    Don't worry, you will get over it.
    Sorry, I can't help myself.
    That table over there might work better for you.
    You're welcome.

    Reminds me of one of my favorite moments. I was playing back and forth between one spot and two spots, playing lots of deviations, and winning consistently with them. Everyone else at the table was just getting crushed. The guy at 3rd base was losing his mind and he screamed that I'm fucking up the cards. He picked his chips up and moved to the open spot to the right of me. Next play I hit a 12 vs 4 and then draw a 9 for 21. The dealer flips a ten and draws a 6 for 20 and beats everyone but me. The guy slams the table with both arms in a rage and then storms off with his three other friends. The floor manager came over to make sure the dealer was ok. I got the the table entirely to myself for the next shoe.

    Ploppy lowers his bet, gets a BJ, and loudly bemoans, "Every time I lower my bet I get a BJ!"

    I reply, "Ok... You can crush the casino. Just bet the table max of $2500 and don't split or double down. Next hand lower your wager by $1 to $2499 and get a BJ. Even if you lose the $2500 wager, you'll more than make up for it by getting a BJ on your $2499 wager. Then just keep repeating this pattern of wagers until you own the casino."

    Oddly enough, none has ever tried my suggestion ;-)

    BTW, with me, if I ever want to pull a ten all I have to do is hit on a twelve. I swear it's 80% - 90% of the time.

    Copied this list from this forum, keep it in my phone.
    I guess that’s why they call me a cooler
    It’s a blackjack table, not an Ally savings account
    I didn’t come here to be responsible
    I didn’t come here to make good decisions
    You don’t want to know how much I cost my parents
    Don’t blame me for everything, I’m not your father
    Imagine how many basic strategy cards that would’ve bought
    Taking responsibility for your actions is un-American
    That’s why I’d recommend leaving when I sit down
    I do things like that on purpose
    You sound like my kids, blaming me for everything
    I said the same thing to my wife yesterday
    If you’re gonna misplay hands it’s always better to blame someone else
    This isn’t Unicef
    If I’m gonna lose it’s only fair everyone else does
    I think they have higher minimum tables you could play poorly at
    Are we having fun yet!
