Here are some of the funny/entertaining things that have happened to me while playing cards recently. I've decided to list them for your entertainment. No names or places will be mentioned, however all the incidents took place in Los Angeles area card rooms.

Playing 8/16 (food is not comped at this level), a young Asian lady, very easy on the eyes, moves from another table to the five seat in this game. Seat six has just received his dinner - hamberger, fries and a soda, when he gets a phone call, he obviously should not be in the casino because he runs outside before answering the phone. I believe he ate one fry prior to the call. The Asian lady is friendly and a little tipsy, after playing one hand she looks over at seat six's dinner and takes a french fry, seat seven indicates to the lady that the food is not his, it belongs to the gentleman in seat six. The lady just smiles and says don't worry. Well next hand she takes another fry and then another, pretty soon she has moved seat six's chair out of the way and rolled his food tray right next to her and she proceeds to munch on the burger.
In no time she has finished off the burger and fries and washed it down with the soda. As seat six is returning to the table he sees a porter wheeling off the remains of his dinner. Seat six looks confused, no body at the table says anything until the lady in seat five says, "I ate you hamberger, don't worry, I'll buy you another". Seat six catches the attention of a food server just as seat five goes all in. You guessed it, she lost the hand and was out of money, she left the table saying, "seat open" and not thanking seat six for his dinner.


In this game we have a pregnant dealer who has just put a 6 and 9 on the flop, there is another lady in the game. Two of the young wags at the table start saying that the lady's (player) favourite numbers are on the flop. They are all friends and the lady goes along with the joke, and soon the entire is involved, when the dealer says "That's what I should have done!"


A player starts whining that he just lost $150 in one hand, "How am I suppose to get that back?" he asks. The wag next to him says, "Go to work tomorrow!"


A young female dealer who likes to gamble, did I mention she likes to gamble, has just delt a jackpot. The young man who had aces full beat is entitled to $10,000, however he did not have any ID and has left the casino to procure some (Santa Ana perhaps?). One of the wags who is entitled to a table share of the jackpot says to the dealer, "Maybe he's gonna marry you when he gets back?". Without batting an eye the dealer replys, "That really would be a bad beat for him!"


A tired player who has been dozing off at the table is woken up by the dealer. "What time is it?" asked the player. "Time to take the big blind" replays the dealer.

Hope you enjoyed them,
Jim

This has to be the best bad beat story I've ever read! /images/graemlins/smile.gif

One of the dealers in the cardroom where I work suffered a real bad-beat: the apartment building where he lived burned to the ground. No injuries, but he and his family lost everything they owned.

He was back to work a few days later. One player, who hadn't tipped him all night, started to whine about the quality of the cards he'd been getting. "Come on, dealer," he said, trying to invoke an old cliche, "my kids need a new pair of shoes!"

The dealer, who usually would be too professional to whine about tokes, deadpanned to the stiff, "So do mine!"

A player asked to be put on the red-chip list. The brush asked if he'd like to play 4-8 while he was waiting, and indicated a nearby table, full of silent, sullen rocks.

"Hell, no, I don't want to play at that table!", he replied. "It looks like 'The Last Supper'!"
