He’s not side counting. He’s draining the snake. He’s back counting, doesn’t want to look obvious, gets a full bladder and then takes a leak thereby relieving his “pork knuckle”. That’s what I think, and as long as I’m surmising, I’ll say that he’s back counting 8 deck games because when they go positive, they tend to stay positive.

Well, I guess you have to call it something, and Pork Knuckle is as good a name as any. Other honorable mentions could include Gorgeous George, Big Murph, Sven the Pork Chop, and a plethora of others.

Should earn me another unhelpful or 2.
