I have decided I have to start writing my casino stories.
Tonight I was strolling through the casino when I spotted a blackjack dealer friend playing at a blackjack table. She was not working, she was at this other casino. Anyway, she didn't see me, or at least I don't think she saw me. As I walked briskly by the table she was playing at I noticed her getting up from the table. She was getting up from the blackjack table in a way that I spot way too often in the casino world. It was obvious that she had lost her money. I assumed that she had just lost a few dollars and didn't think anything of it.
Later in the evening, I bumped into her and I could instantly sense that she was "down". She didn't say anything at the time really. It was obvious that she wanted to get away from me.
Later I saw her again and she was obviously out of money. She said she had been at that casino all day and had lost $900. She said that was her pay check for two weeks. Wow, that is sad....
Overall, I think blackjack dealers are terrible gamblers.
