Dave's Cash Showdown April 17

It's time for Dave's cash showdown.

Time for you to throw down.

Winning in a mini in-answer 10.

Dave comes in and answers in again.

If your score's inferior, then Dave will reign superior.

It's time to play around.

Of Dave's cash showdown.

And we're going to play the trivia competition.

We call it Dave's cash showdown.

Molly has 10 questions.

And our contestant today, it's his birthday.

Yep.

Oh, that's kind of cool.

He is listener number 91 on our Power 200 list

of our first 200 listeners that we started with.

And he hears what's funny.

So he is with Molly, who is number 50.

So I texted him because he said, are you there Todd?

Good morning.

How are you guys?

Very good.

Happy birthday.

Thanks, buddy.

How are you?

Very good.

What will you do?

What is the special event other than being on the show

today?

What is the special thing that you will have for a birthday?

That's it.

That's it being on your show.

What more could a guy ask for?

That's true.

You're seeing all the right things.

So here's what I want you to do.

So you know, we have a signature that goes

at the back of our text.

So mine, my signature says Molly.

Thanks for texting.

Like basically it's me.

So I text Todd says, hey, I'll play today.

So I say, okay.

And then it says Molly.

Thanks for texting.

And then he writes, this is actually Todd.

So he thought I was saying.

Oh, oh, oh, right.

Yes.

That I was answering Molly.

No, I know it's you.

I know it's you.

That's confusing.

That's just my tag.

That's just my signature thing.

So say you know what's me.

Now, I'll hang out with Molly at some point today.

I mean, I'm at work now.

But later on the night, we'll go do something.

And she's not a one day birthday person.

I mean, she leads up to your birthday.

She brought me cookies in the classroom yesterday

for my class.

And then we'll go out.

We'll hit a casino or something and now you're tall.

Yeah, I'm talking your language.

I get it.

Yeah, so it's a birthday weekend.

It's not necessarily just a day for her.

And so people go to casinos on special occasions.

Some people think every day was a special occasion.

It's sort of on my list of things to do.

Go grocery shopping, do the laundry, casinos, come back,

make dinner.

More chances to win.

And you're mostly, you're a card player, right, Todd?

Or do you play slots?

I am.

Well, it depends.

Like Chuyla is kind of our go to.

And so out there, we actually play high card flush.

Yeah, I love that game.

Yeah.

It's just kind of a fun game.

You know, you don't have to spend a ton of money.

You can sit there all day or, you know, all night

on a hundred bucks.

No.

Well, not the way I play.

I knew.

Well, and I love Texas.

Hold them, but it just seems they've changed the odds

or changed the game a little bit to where you have to win

like three games to the one to lose, you know, and it's like,

man, you gotta win three games just to stay afloat.

So that's getting tougher.

But then I also like craps and whether I'm throwing the dice

or actually the bubble craps.

I've learned kind of a system on bubble traps that I like.

Oh, we got a system.

We were talking to somebody else, somebody who works here

who likes the bubble crap.

They just sit there and play.

It's fun to look at.

I'm worried about, you know, people that just got a dice

and throw or they don't care, you know, and then the other thing

that I do is when I play craps, I do a lot of, a lot of batting,

a lot of pulling back, putting down.

And sometimes the dealers can, man, you're just working me to death.

And it's like, yeah, I'm doing my system.

And so then I feel bad for them.

And if I feel bad for them, then I feel bad.

And then my energy goes down and then I don't throw well.

So bubble crap don't worry about any of that.

You do have a system.

You got a system for this.

Yeah.

I know craps is one of those things where it is highly superstitious.

And there's certain things that you can never do.

And then they, you know, so I do, I do get that.

And you have to have good vibes.

And they don't have superstitious.

I'm not superstitious.

I'm not one of those people.

And you're right, you know, the guy that rubs his hand

on the carpet, you know, and then he grabs the dice

and I think, you know, rubs his shoulder.

He's like a baseball pitcher.

So yeah, I'm not like that.

But again, I just do my, and some dealers can handle my bedding

and pulling back.

But some dealers are like, man, you're just working me

to death here.

I'm like, yeah, but I'm also tipping you

because I sit very well, I'll crop stable.

Yeah.

Some people get their dice together and then they make sure

that the numbers line up and then they shift it back

and forth and back and forth and then,

and then they have a little thing and then they throw it.

Well, on my tipping habits, I don't usually just throw them,

you know, a chip.

I usually bet it for them.

So then now they're, they're on my side.

They're hoping I win because now they win.

So that's my, my tipping habits.

So you've really given this a lot of thought

and I appreciate that about you because I have all those

same things about the slot machines,

which I have zero control over, but it's still.

Well, that's why I don't make problems

because you're just pushing a button

and I can do that on my phone.

But your phone's not going to give you a jackpot.

There's no way to think about it.

That's right.

It's not going to give you the same joy.

Anyway, are there any gambling, any gambling questions

on your list of 10 questions today?

There are no gambling questions,

but I do have a couple of money questions.

All right, let's hear about the money questions.

I have a $2 question at number four.

Okay.

And a $2 question at number eight.

Okay, $2 and eight, $2 each.

Yep.

All right.

I'm going to walk.

I think I've ever beat you.

Oh.

Okay.

Well, we'll see what happens today.

I think we've tied, but I don't think I've ever beat you.

It's your birthday.

Yep.

So anything can happen.

All right.

Good luck, Todd.

Thanks, sir.

All right, Todd.

Oh, now kid, all I heard was.

There's no money has been lost yet.

Yeah.

I like how you say that.

That's right.
