Legend of week 5 - Dave Smith



For a man Dave's age (and I hope he won't mind me saying that), Mr Smith is naturally unlikely to have the technical game of Alex Martin for example but his results probably exceed those of 99% of players his age in England.

Dave is always a perfect gentleman at the table and always good fun too.

The Dave Smith story that sticks out most in my head was when I was sat next to Dave playing Blackjack in Gala Notts. Dave wasn't playing nosebleeds but £50/hand sort of thing and the dealer was just brushing past him, assuming on 17 he wouldnt want a card etc. It wasn't so much playing for the table, but autoplaying for the dealer.

Anyway, Dave politely tells the dealer he'd like to be asked every time it was his turn. The dealer continues to go along as before and Dave is visibly a little irritated. Dave has two picture cards, against the dealer's picture on the end box. As the dealer brushes past Dave as if to draw for their own hand Dave quickly interjects.

"You have 20 sir"
"Yes I know that. But I'd like a card"
*Table looks at Dave as if he's gone crazy but proving the point was obviously more important to him*
"Are you sure sir?"
"Card pls..."

Over rolls the ace of hearts...stopping the dealer from getting blackjack and making them subsequently bust.

Share your Dave Smith stories...

Mmm.......all the best for him as well, doesn't sound very good unfortunately.

I've always got on well with Dave and like him, always makes the games more fun as well.

Played against Dave a couple of times, really nice guy, friendly, chats to the "kidz", always got a smile on his face and very polite and definately loves a Gamble!
