"Wow, so sick..." she added as she threw her cards towards the muck.

"I don't have to show my cards!" Rousso snapped at the floor staff right when he pointed this out to her.
"Call the floor over!" Rousso added as her cards were almost tabled and turned back down again.
"I am the floor," the member of the floor staff responded as some players chuckled.
