"Del Webb's Mint"?!

[Dunbar]

Okay, who came up with "Del Webb's Mint"? Are there 10 people on this site who know what that is! Brought back memories for me, though.

The Mint was the first place I tried out my newly learned card counting skills. They were dealing out every card but one from a single deck. I thought, "geez, if they can do that, then maybe card counting doesn't work". But I went ahead with my $1-$4 spread anyway, really sweating the 'big' bets. By my next trip to Las Vegas, maybe 9 months later, no casino was dealing like that. For years I had a $5 chip from The Mint in my desk drawer.

Maybe I'd better throw in a selection so this post doesn't get moved to esoteric or something. Okay, "All Others" in the Ky Derby Future Wager, Pool 2. Especially if it looks like it will be 5-1 or higher. Risking 1/2 unit.
