Saturday morning conversations with Absinthe

ScurvyDog’s guide to casino whoring is helping me offset my poker losses. Thanks Scurvy! I’m such a degenerate. Ask Absinthe, he can tell you:

Glyphic: Playing some bj

Absinthe: and winning, presumably.

Glyphic: Up 164 over my buyin + bonus

Absinthe: So, you’re going to walk away now, right? Right?

Glyphic: Haven’t cleared the bonus play through yet

Glyphic: Just increased my bet from 4 to 10 and hit blackjack

Glyphic: Decreased it back to 4 and hit a twenty. doh.

Absinthe: Varying your bet with a memoryless deck?

Glyphic: Yes

Glyphic: Can’t i have my fun?

Absinthe: So long as you realize that it’s -EV.

Glyphic: -EV? Wot’s dat?

Absinthe: (Bad Phil. Bad! Bad!)

Glyphic: Fuck the dealer. And his blackjack

Glyphic: So rigged

Absinthe: Dude. It’s GAMBLING.

Glyphic: ?

Glyphic: you make no sense sometimes

Glyphic: i got a system, man…

Absinthe: Uh huh.

Absinthe: Step 1: lose a lot of money

Absinthe: Step 2: ?

Absinthe: Step 3: Profit!

Glyphic: Damn. Just hit BJ and the dealer had BJ too.

Glyphic: So rigged

Glyphic: Woo! I love double down.

Absinthe: Blackjack is like crack to you, isn’t it?

Glyphic: That analogy would be pretty good if i weren’t a crack smoker

Absinthe: Okay, it’s like the gambling version of what you smoke regularly.

Glyphic: Okay, now I’m up $425 and I can withdraw my winnings.

Glyphic: I even made $25 playing roulette.

Maybe Iggy put it best: “ur doomed.”
