it was a king and a three

the game ace-y duce-y

I wasn't counting cards but it was early in the deal, I calculated about two and a half in my favor.

I was drinking scotch

I pulled all the cash I had left from my pocket

It totaled sixty seven dollar

I said "thirty bucks" but before I tossed the cash, which for this table makes it official, I caught a look at the dealer.

I knew I had just made a mistake. I tossed the twenty and then the ten anyway.

The dealer will peak at the following card if it's not his turn, I've never actually caught him doing so but I could tell be his expression that he knew.

The dealer flipped a king of hearts and said "Pay it"
