oceans 11 underage jackpot story

[csuf_gambler]

friday night, im playing in my usual 8/16 game. we get a new lady dealer. she starts going on incomprehensibly about how she was just dealing a game and that some kid kept saying he didn't want to hit the jackpot. she slows down and starts to explain the story. she was dealing in the 1-1 $40 NL game. there were 3 on board and there were 2 players in the hand. one of the players was a kid and he kept yelling that he didn't want to hit the jackpot. he ends up hitting the jackpot. i forgot the exact situation but it was something like the kid having KK and his opponet having AQ or the other way around. well it turns out that the kid wasn't 21 and thats why he kept saying he didn't want to hit the jackpot. the kid just won $27,000. the dealer goes on to say that the casino will actually hold the jackpot for him till he turns 21! everyone at my table was like wow thats pretty generous of the casino. she says that the casino took a picture of him and barred him from the casino till he turns 21(duh, its a 21 and over place.she kept repeating the barring part for some reason). i asked her that since the kid wasn't of age, don't they just void the jackpot. shes says no since theres too many other people involved. they don't want to piss off the other players. i also asked if they let the kid cash out his chips that he had on the table and she said no, the casino wll hold his money and he can come back at 21. but if the kid had just lost the hand then he wouldn't of had any money on the table, so i don't know. the dealer was one of those asian lady's who spoke broken english so i don't know if she was saying if the kid was the winner of the hand or the winner of bad beat. i wanted to ask more questions but i refrained because i was in a similiar situation being underage too.

god i hope to god that my table never hits a jackpot. i just wanna play poker, i don't care about some fuking jackpot. this presents a few situations for me. im thinking of ways to handle jackpot situations. whenever i play there, i never carry any form of ID. i leave my drivers license in my car. so if i were to be involved in a jackpot and they say i can come back at 21, how would they know it's me when i come back(how would they id me from the jackpot)?



my money on the table is the 2nd issue. if i were involved in the jackpot, i wouldn't mind just cashing out and never coming back till i was 21. but if they also took the money that i have on the table, that would suck. this makes me not want to play the 20/40 there, i would have too much money on the table.

this is amazing, is this was commerce the jackpot would be voided and you would probably be killed before you leave.

don't worry about hitting the jackpot, as there doesn't seem to be any criminal problems, and they hold your money!

when i was underage at commmerce i hit the jackpot, but i was just a spectator of the hand. still they needed my ID. i showed them my fake, then went to the bathroom and hid every other form of identification in my shoe just to be safe.

they didn't ask for anything else and i got the money.

I gotta go play there if they're that cool about it.

wow you serious? they just looked at your fake id real quickly and didn't take it to verify it? my friend hit a table share at morongo before. she said that they took everyones id's at the table and left for like an hour to verify the id's.

btw where did you get your fake? is it good quality? feel free to pm me if you don't want to discuss it here.

with the help of a 2+2'er(thx Bulbarainey), me and my friends went up to LA to score some fake id's on alvarado street. we looked at/sampled like 5 different id's and they were all pretty low quality. i don't imagin that they will pass at commerce. i doubt they would even pass at my local Sav-on.

I don't know what their procedures are there but most places take the IDs so they can copy the info off of them to fill out their paper work. I have never known a place to verify them, they do make copies so they have proof that they got IDs for tax forms and stuff.

His "fake" ID was a real, unexpired ID of mine since I am his older brother, and had recently got a new license in the mail. It was close enough where it would look like him on a bad hair day, so he didn't get any trouble.

No Alvarado street ID will pass at Commerce for a jackpot.

By the way the kid saying "I DONT WANT TO WIN A JACKPOT" over and over is a douche. He shouldve shutup and rode through it smoothly and possibly left with 27k.

When I was 19, I visited some firends in So. Cal who were attending Marymount. They brought me downtown, and I scored my first fake ID in the back of a donut shop that doubled as a photo studio. Not more than 2 hours later, It was taken off of me by a clerk at a convience store. Two days before returning east , I bought a 2nd one, this time with my legit info( name,pic etc) and a new SS card(in my name as well) to back it up. I used it for eveything the next two years. Basically the moral, Cali ID's can be a great tool, as long as they aren't used in Cali.

Good Luck hunting for one!

Don't play in games that take a jackpot drop.

in march '04 i was playing 4-8 hold'em at the palms and i hit a high hand jackpot ($1199) and i was only 18. i was so damn scared while i was sitting there waiting for whoever to bring me my jackpot which took about 30 minutes. when they brought the rack of chips over to my table they gave me a piece of paper that had a list of names and signatures of people who hit the jackpots and i just signed my name, no problem. there wasn't an ID check or anything.

That's cause it was under $1200 so they didnt have to make a W2G.
