Re: Am I alone in my thinking that casino whoring is a load of crap?
The funny thing about casino whoring is that it reminded me how much I miss blackjack. I started my less than illustrious career in gambling counting cards. After the reality of the difficulties in making it playing 21 set in I took up poker out of sheer neccessity. Hell, I didn't even know what checkraise meant when I started reading my first poker book.
Having a 20 cracked by the dealers 7 card 21 just doesn't get to me like having a big hand cracked by some piece of crap on the other side who is laughing his ass off, thinking that he is Gods gift to Hold 'em, because he made duece four work.
I would take blackjack anyday if it offered the same potential.
