Last weekend, I visited Lake Tahoe, NV to enjoy some nature, but ended up all 3 days at the casino :(
As I lose money, I always start counting how much money the dealer has.. Here I am playing with $5 chips and the dealer has $10,000.. $20,000, $100,000... sitting in front of me. Then I sometime wish the lights go out so I can just take one $1000 chip.
Well guess what.. as I was playing at a craps table,
the lights went out!In the movie Oceans Eleven, when the lights go out, chaos breaks loose. Everyone smacks everyone trying to get all the chips they can
So when this happened, I was ready. I was just looking around to see who's going to jump in first...
Well I was a bit disappointed. What actually happens is.. everyone including myself covers their own chips and the dealers are told to not move.. and then the pit boss comes out with a flash light and returns everyone's bets. It's quite uneventful. The ATM machines are still running and slot machines return with the original credits.
One cool thing was that the lights went out when we crapped out and when the dealers were cleaning the chips, but apparently she didn't clean my chips yet.. so she thought it was my bet and gave me back the money I should've lost. Felt a little guilty, but there are plenty of times the dealer made a mistake and gave me less chips or just didn't give me my winnings so.. ok..ok.. no justifying.. I was evil. I walked off with the money. Sorry Harvey's Lake Tahoe.
