Message: [QUOTE="PokerScreenplay, post: 3669571, member: 250703"] I had been playing poker for only about a week when I sat down at the old Stardust poker room in Vegas. I was playing 3-6 limit holdem. I hit a bunch of straights and flushes and was up about $200 which was certainly the most money I ever won in my 1 week career. At that point I didn't know you couldn't take money off the table. Wanting to keep my profits I racked up $200 and took it over to the cage to get cash. I then came back to the table to play some more. Well somebody probably told on me and a few minutes later the floorman came over and informed me I couldn't do that. I told him I didn't know. I guess he didn't believe me because he excluded me for the day. Looking back I'm glad the mobster Tony "The Ant" Spilotro who used to play a lot at the Stardust wasn't at the table or I might have gotten the crap beat out me. [/QUOTE]
