Default Victory Dance

With all the discussion about how foolish gambling is I was reminded of my favorite casino moment. So the question is what do you do when you "hit it big". Whether its 26341 nickles on the slots, the lovely 5-6-7 of clubs at 3 card, or watching paint fall on a lonely Ace when the big bet is out there in BJ. How do you celebrate?

I tend to vary, blackjack I tend to be quiet, celebrate at the table, 3 card - tends to be a little more vocal.

Depends on the table--some are "fun/party" tables...other times, the folks are taking their game VERY seriously...I 'celebrate' accordingly! I'll do a little "chair dance" if it's an appropriate crowd around!

The difference between a blackjack player and a craps player is about 200 decibels when they win $20.

HHHHHEEEEELLLLLLLLLLOOOOO grod19: It depends on what game you are at and who else is there. A few times I've been on Craps tables, which is known to get noisy, and it is quiet. I've also heard celebrations from card tables which have a reputation to be more quiet.

Regardless of where I'm playing I tend to be quiet. No celebrations.

I scream BIG RED when I want the SEVEN to roll out. And when it does I scream YES, especially if I am playing the dark side and I am the shooter.
