We're Guessing "Smokes a Check" is No Good Either

Share on Twitter Share on Facebook

As play stretches into the night, the patience of players is beginning to wear thin. On a recent hand, Men "The Master" Nguyen checked seventh street as his card was dealt, prompting the dealer to declare, "Check in the dark."

"Why did you say check in the dark?" asked an irritated Nguyen. "I didn't say check in the dark."

The dealer quickly apologized, but Nguyen continued. "It's not your job to say 'check in the dark.' Do your job."
