Double Dipping!

A bunch of guys I am friendly with at Oceans have an expression we call "double dipping". It's where you come to the casino have a winning session, leave for whatever reason, and then come back for more in the same 24-hour period. Well I double-dipped yesterday, for the first time ever.

I had a light morning in the office, and I had an early afternoon appointment outside the office. So afterwords I went and played some cards. I made $1200 between the 20/40 and 40/80 games I played in a relatively short amount of time. I left around 5:30pm so I could get home to the wife and kids, who were none the wiser. After going out to dinner with them, the wife gave me her blessing to play cards, so ... I showed back up at Oceans-11 around 9pm or so. Steve the floor man working that night said goodbye to me as I was leaving the first time, and did a double take when he saw me walking in again. He gave me that confused look of huh, didn't I just see you leave? I just smiled and explained the situation to him. He got a good chuckle out of it.

In any case, the back end of my double header was a good one. I got into a really juicy 40/80 game with two mega-fish and a couple of guppies. I had a good night and finished just a little shy of booking a 4k win.
