I bet you have already watched "Night at the Muzeum".
People claim that this is a great movie.
Well, this claim hasnt been justified, (since i havnt watched it yet)
but what has been justified is that "Night at the Casino" is quite remarkable.
As a 21-yr-old, I just had my first-time try at wagering (my lecturer, madame khaw claimed this is a better word to use than Gambling) in Genting Highland last nite.
Imagined the first time I stepped into a casino on my own, without any purpose of work, it is a bit overwhelming.
Finally, I can give the guards in the front door of the casino a oh-so-proud glance.
Despite I know the fact that statistically the house has an edge, I just wanna go there and try it at least once.
It just makes me feel so adult-like.
And I'm glad I did it last night. Hahaha...
Though my frens and I did lose some money last night, I'm still glad we had our first try.
Since we all were considered rookies, we had to learn all the "rules and regulations" from the scratch.
The learning process was a thrill and full of laughter.
Here is one of the embarrassing moments.
At the pontoon table, I kept hearing some aunties screaming out the same cantonese dirty word - "67" everytime the dealer draws a card.
At first, I was like "Wah, these aunties are rude!".
Apparently I was wrong.
When I asked my fren why they are so rude, she told me they were just saying "Picture",
and definitely not "67".
So embarrassed at that moment...
Embarrasing Story #2 is about my fren- B.
When we were about to start our first bet, we asked B to change money for chips at the Cashier Counter.
B totally obeyed us and went to the counter asking for changing for chips.
The worker stared at him with a puzzled look and said,
"What do u wanna change? You dun hav any chip"
Later on we were told tt we can change for chips in the gambling table, the cashier counter is only for cashing in chips.
Somehow five of us just couldnt stop acting silly in the casino.
Overall, it's a very good experience, but i just didnt see the real fun of wagering in the casino.
Just dun understand y those uncles aunties like to spend so much time wagering in there.
The place is filled with smoke and noise.
I got bored after playing the French Boule for just an hour.
Perhaps, it would be more exciting if all of my frens and I can sit at the same gambling table to play pontoon.
At least we can scream "Picture, Picture" together.
