\nButch and Lefty went to CCBH early since Lefty is leaving for a warmer destination for the weekend.<\/p>\n

\tFinding the table empty they settled in and Butch began right away with winning hands. Lefty was cool
\n\tbut his dice looked good. After Lefty’s second hand a short fat kid comes to the table with 2 red chips
\n\t and wants to roll. He puts one red on the line and throws the dice off the end of the table, his second
\n\ttoss makes it just past the center area but no one says anything. It is a 5. He puts his other red chip as odds, but the dealer says it has to be even. He doesn’t understand so she makes change and puts 4 whites
\n\tbehind and one in the rack. He makes the 5 and wins, stacks it all on the line and gets another 5. He
\n\tpromptly makes the 5 and wins again. He stacks it again but Lefty can’t stand it and tells him to just put
\n\t5 on the line and the rest behind.He gets a 6 and tries to hand 2 whites to the dealer and asks for a 5and6.
\n\tThe stickman is telling him to drop the chips and the dealer is telling him its a 3 dollar minimum table.
\n\tHe is frozen until Butch calmly says " I think he wants a 2 dollar Yo" . He gets his bet and throws the
\n\tdice (short again) . They take his bet down and its starts again. Where did my bet go? Sir, it was a
\n\tone roll bet. Why didn’t you tell me? You didn’t ask.<\/p>\n

\tHe finally sevens out and Butch has another middle 20s roll. Lefty gets the dice and it starts again.
\n\tThe ploppy pulled the bottom of his tee shirt up and loaded his chips in it for the ride to the cashier.
\n\tThe boxman is pleading with him to put the chips down on the table and they will count them for him.
\n\tButch and Lefty quickly snatch up their new passline bets as the chips come cascading onto the table.
\n\tAfter the round-up he gets 160 dollars. 16 times his buyin. As he leaves Butch asks, "you must have read a book"? The ploppy says " Nah, I am good at everything I do."<\/p>\n

\tLefty then proceeds to take charge of the table with lots of 6s and lots of pressing, after the colorup
\n\tthey head out of town just before the approaching snow storm.<\/p>\n

There is one at every table. These ploppies an really screw things up sometimes. Looks like both of you kept your cool and continued with good rolls. Hope to see both of you soon.<\/p>\n

I guess it would be great to have a few blockers. These guys see you doing good, come out of nowhere, and put money right in the perfect spot. Or, they hold up the game. Or, throw money out across your hands or face after the dice are out. I see why people reserve a whole table to themselves sometimes. I am glad you all won money. Stay lucky and good! \ud83d\ude09<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Glad to hear that the mining continues to be successful in gold country. Might be able to pack up my shovel, pick and pan and give it a shot the second week in December. Want to get back to my favorite claim in CC before the year is out.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Such great writing, Goldfinger!<\/p>\n
