    Sounds like someone who claims to be a blackjack expert...and then splits a pair of 10s (one of the most boneheaded moves possible that to some beginners sounds like it'd make sense; like bringing out the queen too early in chess).

      Quoth An Haddock View Post
      My dad gave me a little lizard/dragon statue as a housewarming gift. He'd had it for years and I like red dragons, so that was cool. I had it sitting on the counter and D was afraid of the statue because it looked realistic. (aside from the wings jutting out from its back and it having 4 legs) I finally made him pick it up and put it on a shelf so he could see it was a goddammed statue.
      Hey don't give that sucka no statue! Give him guts! Sorry I couldn't resist.

        I resemble that remark!

        OK most of the time I'll just sit pretty; but a pair of faces or tens against a dealer 6? I might throw caution to the wind and splitem. Depends on how well I'm playing (how up I am) more than anything and most of the time I wouldn't.

        Of course I also don't claim to be a BJ expert either.

                  Yup, it was intentional. I knew how it could be taken and decided to lob an easy one out to the crowd.

                          How did a US Acres character (the walking egg) get involved in all this? This thread sure got scrambled quickly.
