[x] degen itt

what is there to say?

damn dude, you are a true Degen

i like your story op

u sir, have a gambling problem.

fyp

hehehe, I was thinking this also

I'm guessing the dealer had an up 5 and a down 5, then received a 6 on the first hit. But considering the OPs style, he missed a golden opportunity for another fml moment. Cuz if he stayed on 12, then saw the dealer actually had 10, he woulda been irate! And then came the best card in the deck for that situation - the 6! You got the best card possible and still lost, wheres the extra h8?

Or, there's the possibility that 5+6=16.

Dealer has A6.....In some casinos the dealer has to stay on a soft 17......others have to hit a soft 17. Of course if they hit a 4 they have 21....if they hit a 6 they would have 13 and have to hit again.

where'd you get all this money in the first place?

Knowing the law ftw.

sick BRM

So awesome. A little part of me is jealous that I would never do this.

in before robusto

This is karma, obviously.

there's your problem

+1....also, why bet $4k on one hand in BJ?....$100 a hand would have been better since you had 50 bets and you could have caught a good run of cards and doubled your money to recoup your poker losses...$4k on one hand is nutty

....good story though, I have also gotten sucked out on huge pots and burned a couple more dimes trying to win it back at BJ....

The police check your bus tickets in Australia?

shoulda went back to the poker table wit da 5k OP

this made me lol for some reason.

such a great response.

Three letters B R M ? have you heard of it

Read 1.5 paragraphs. Not only are you an idiot but you also are very boring.

your an idiot. he has a better chance at doubling his money if he does it with 1 bet for obvious reasons....

also doubt this story is real

thanks for the laugh OP

Pretty ridiculous that everyone is ignoring this and believing his obvious bs. Do you guys believe everything you read on the Internet?

first, if the story is real, thank you for sharing OP i love these stories. they are a lesson for us all to practice responsible gambling. if you've never even entertained the thought of playing some mindless table game to make up your poker losses in 20 seconds you haven't played in a casino very much.

second, wtf is with all the people jumping all over what could easily be explained as a typo in OPs story which was probably written in haste while massively tilted. do you really think the dealer made a mistake at the table and he actually won the hand?? you're missing the point: he lost a BJ hand where he was ahead to cap off some poker bad beats. leave it at that.
