Well, duh. If you live in a certain region...name escapes me... there's a chance that you could wind up living forever...or at least until someone lops off yer head...

A JOKE: (and being from both nationalities i can tell it)
What's the difference between a Scotsman and Irishman?
about 12 miles of salty water
but to the OP, the Scot/Irish confusion thing is a lot like the Aussie/Kiwi confusion thing; to the untrained ear the accents sound the same and there are a number of cultural similarities that make it even more difficult to discern and heaven help you when you get it wrong....
but the Indian was an obvious instigator, and should've been escorted from the property long before the NZ gent got a chance to "join in the fun"....
as for why the Irishman came back to the table - despite the Indian's attitude he may have been having the best luck there, or it was one of the few tables that had high/low limits that he wanted to play at and or the seat he wanted .... (gambler's are a superstitious lot)I am well versed in the "gentle" art of verbal self-defense

I am aware of this. If anyone called me Australian, I likely would have overturned the table and "put up my dukes". I suppose it's like Canadians getting mistaken for Americans, too. Regardless, I've found in most cases it's best not even to bring it up. Least said, soonest mended. Clearly the Indian fellow had no such qualms.Quoth Treasure View PostNow, I'd like to digress from my prepared remarks to discuss how I invented the terlet...Comment
