LOL. Hey, jdaewoo, if I ever want a sockpuppet, can I hire you?
As far as the wager sizing, what's the issue? People think $450 blackjack bets are large? In Las Vegas? In places with carpets? I know nothing about blackjack, but the dude I'm sitting with in the Retro Road trip thread bets two to four times that on multiple hands and gets zero scrutiny. Next time he plays, I will check for Chihuly (Note: I stayed in a Nashville Gaylord with some Chihuly, so the Chihuly does get around).
I can hear Dan Akroyd every time I read jdaewoo's closing comments. Always gives me a chuckle.
