The Wevs and the Weens were playing blackjack as I looked on. They hit a nice part of shoe and Evan ended up winning about a K. He colored up to large chips and had 3 purple chips ($500) and 2 black chips ($100). The line at the cage was too long so he decided to get his cash from the poker room. This is where things get bizarre if you understand gambling and Evan. I have a feeling I won’t get the exchange exact, but will do my best.

Cashier: Nice work. Did you get all these playing poker?
Evan: Yes. (Remember the answer is 100% no).
Cashier: What were you playing?
Evan: 1-3. ($1,700 is a pretty good sized stack at 1-3 but not too odd. What’s more odd is he usually plays 2-5 and that answer would have been much more credible)
Cashier: How did you get these chips?
Evan: I changed people at the table. (I can’t even begin to explain to people who don’t understand poker how he would manage to do this)
Cashier: Uh huh.

This brief exchange requires many questions that go down as one of the most fascinating stories that this cashier has ever heard. I also just told it to Sam and he didn’t even laugh so like I thought, you probably won’t either.

1) Lying to start the process is a great twist to the story. Why you would lie is got to be my favorite part of this story. There is literally nothing to gain by lying.
2) Saying he was playing 1-3 is like digging a hole. Expounding on the little white lie is got to be my favorite part of the story.
3) Changing people out, to get exactly $1,700, has got to be my favorite part of the story. He would have had to be sitting with something like 10 stacks of red chips and a stack of green chips. Then he’d have people at the table who had purple chips playing 1-3. Not just 1 purple chip. 3 purple chips. I rarely see a black chip at the 1-2 game. Yet this wild 1-3 table is throwing around purples.
4) The cashier had to be questioning this entire story which has go to be my favorite part of the story considering it’s 2am and they are probably questioning their how shitty their job is when this maniac comes in with $1,700 fabricating an absurd story.

Evan if you read this, you can probably fill in any of the details I missed. Did anyone else find this as funny as we both did?
