I only seems like bad luck until you realize that one more seven and the Robert De Niro character would have had your head placed in a vice.:)

And it can happen no matter how logical you are or know the real odds are low. The house always wins, folks. Which is why I've never gambled... unless these count :turned:

"I mean, look at you. You domesticated yourself for this girl. You took yourself out of the life, you walked the fucking line for her. And the minute you want a little of it back, she walks out on you! It's just like the saying says, you know? In the poker game of life, women are the rake. They are the fucking rake."

Exactly why I prefer Black Jack (21)... besides it teaches you to count! ;)

(Btw... it was a goodish film and I only played that coin waterfall / rake shite on big boats... preferably during really rough seas... (get it?) ... or waiting for a seat at the 21 tables.) ;) :alien:

Hmm... nothing so gauche actually... just let the rough seas do it. ;)

FYI... U.S.A. Shipping... new guidelines with certain online sellers that give you a choice... One Live X is crap. :(

15 Days so far... tracking? they keep moving the delivery day! :huh: (Normally it took 3 Days!)

-or-

Pay the absorbent price for "Express" ...I should have gone that way!

WTF... One online vendor tacked on $7.00 without my knowledge, to my credit card... just to verify I was 21!

I order from different online vendors once a year... and nothing I ordered contained nicotine!!!

Outta be a different law! {sigh}
