seems while the players (all 4 of them) were taking a break, the dealer
thought it would be funny to setup the deck to give all 4 the royal flush.
essentially no one would be getting hurt, and all get back their money. now
everything was going according to plan, and suddenly one old man was
screaming how he had a royal flush and wanted his money. the other players
told him they ALL had the royal, and i dont know if he was senile, or didnt
believe them, but he insisted the floor call gaming, and it seems he
eventually got paid and the dealer got fired.

This is for my dad, and especially for my friend H (who is
currently a dealer in Las Vegas). I still remember the last time he tried
stacking the deak and slowly watching it backfire on him as I got
the winning hand. I literally fell on the floor clutching my sides from
laughing so hard.
You have my permission to link freely to any entry here. Go
ahead, I won't bite. I promise.
The dates are the permanent links to that day's entries (or
entry, if there is only one entry). The titles are the permanent
links to that entry only. The format for the links are
simple: Start with the base link for this site: https://boston.conman.org/, then add the date you are
interested in, say 2000/08/01,
so that would make the final URL:
https://boston.conman.org/2000/08/01
You can also specify the entire month by leaving off the day
portion. You can even select an arbitrary portion of time.
You may also note subtle shading of the links and that's
intentional: the “closer” the link is (relative to the
page) the “brighter” it appears. It's an experiment in
using color shading to denote the distance a link is from here. If
you don't notice it, don't worry; it's not all that
important.
