Joey Knish:
[to Mike, referring the stacks of poker chips hidden underneath Mike's hat, before lifting up the hat]
you holding those for somebody?
Mike McDermott:
[to Joey, smiling]
yeah, I was holding it for you
Joey Knish:
[amused, to Mike]
you should be, because I hope you're not thinking of putting all that "glimmer" in play
Joey Knish:
[to Mike, gently grabs his arm and tries to find an empty seat at another table]
come here, you don't want to "butt onions" with these guys because they can chew you up, and take your whole bank roll
Mike McDermott:
so, you say
Joey Knish:
there's plenty easy games, we get outta here, get some coffee, ride over to that "soft seat" in Queens
Mike McDermott:
I know what I'm doing
Joey Knish:
making a run at, aren't you? Rolling up a stake and going to Vegas, am I right?
Mike McDermott:
I can beat the game
Joey Knish:
[to Mike eventually he looks up and gives Joey a serious look]
maybe, maybe this game can be beat, but you know you can beat the ten twenty at the Chesterfield, and high low game at 79th street, ok I understand
