Boy oh boy Elmo has some stories to tell you!! Elmo is still with Eric, and Elmo thinks this is really neat because Elmo has been learning how to play Black Jack! Elmo didn't know what Black Jack was, but Eric has taught Elmo how to play! Elmo thinks that Las Vegas might be his next stop.
Elmo thinks Eric has done a wonderful job on the story too!
Posing in Eric's Casino
Eric questions the Candian money that Elmo bought to the table.
Elmo bought in for $500 (after the exchange rate to US$) , I suspect Shannon gave him some mad money before he left Canada.
NICE! Blackjack on the first hand! Elmo wins $7.50 on his $5 bet!
In the Vegas casino's (where Elmo's host Eric lived for 12 years) gamblers get free drinks. Elmo chose bottled water since he's a good boy, Eric just rolled his eyes.
NO NO ELMO! You don't split 10's!
OMG, he won by splitting 10's and won $50 on his $50 bet! That rarely happens, other players at the table would have been mad and shocked at the same time!
Eric, the dealer, asked Elmo if he'd like to make the table a higher limit table, Eric explained that this would prevent the cheap $5 inexperienced players from joining and messing up his mojo.
Eric transforms into a high limit dealer and puts on the standard tuxedo and bands his long hair back.
NICE! First big bet and Elmo gets a blackjack and wins $450 on his $300 bet!
Eric LOVES Elmo, he tips well!
Elmo just can't lose! After going through 2 shoes (6 decks of cards all mixed together), he's playing with $5000 chips! (blue ones) He's got a 19 and a 18 showing against the dealer's 10 . . .
Eric is in shock when he plays the dealers hand.
The dealer busts with 24 and Elmo wins $20000 on his 2 separate $10000 bets! The orange chip is worth $25000.
Elmo shows off his massive stash of chips! 175k in orange, 50k in blue, 14k in yellow, 6500 in pink, 2000 in black, 125 in green, 10 in white, 25 in red for a total of $247,660
YIKES! Elmo that was $100,000 bet and you lost!
Oh dear, Elmo is down to $60 and he's got 11 and the dealer is showing a 6! Maybe this is the time he comes back?!?!?! Double down Elmo! DOUBLE DOWN against that 6!
OH CRAP! The dealer drew a 21 and Elmo had 15! UGH! Eric assured him that he was there to comfort him on his massive roller coaster ride of winning to losing.
uh oh. Elmo misunderstood the comforting Eric was talking about. The cocktail waitress came by and she thought he meant SOUTHERN comfort. Not the kind of comfort Elmo either wanted or needed!
Eric REALLY needs to comfort him now. So sorry Elmo, that cocktail waitress is FIRED!
Eric and Elmo in the good times of his nearly quarter of a million dollar run.
Elmo had a fantastic time learning how to play Black Jack and wonders if Roulette is next on the agenda??
Stay tuned for more of Elmo and Eric's fun times!!
Love from Elmo!
