"$16,380 Theft Case Settled," Montreal Star. July 30, 1943. Page 3. --- M. Hoffer Sentenced To Six Months in Jail ---- Having pleaded guilty last week to a charge of stealing $16,380 following a card game in a New York hotel in 1940, Martin Hoffer, of London, England, was sentenced to six months imprisonment, dating from last February 6, by Judge Omer Legrand this afternoon.
In rendering sentence, His Honor informed the accused that he had taken into consideration the fact that Hoffer had been in custody in the United States, fighting extradition in this case prior to his arrival here to stand trial.
Hoffer's sentence here brings to a close a criminal action arising from a "friendly" card game of "red dog" which originated in New York between the accused and Edward Roos, of New Orleans, La., in which matches at first were used for stakes and later grew into big-time sitting with a pot amounting to $16,380.
Roos, the loser, paid for his losses by cheque and later gave another cheque for a similar amount after Hoffer claimed that he had been unable to cash the original cheque. He promised, however, to destroy the first cheque. Instead, however, he deposited the cheque in a Montreal bank and collected $14,000. His arrest followed.

Thank you for the much needed excuse to procrastinate @carrythispictureforluck
Sign: Libra ♎️
Time: 22:24
Fav Band: Don’t have a favourite band, but Hozier and Noah Kahan are top contenders for solo artists at the moment
Last Movie: Enola Holmes 2 - so fun, no notes. Sarah Chapman was very Lily Evans
Last Show: The Witcher s3 - It took me a while, but I’m proud to announce I am no longer behind xx
When I created this blog: Relatively recently. Early this year, I think.
Other Blogs: Absolutely not, that would require categorisation. My expertise is far better suited to a single garbled stream of consciousness
Do I get Asks: Does this count as one? They’re fun, I get them occasionally.
Average hours of Sleep: HAHA. HA. Sleep? It’s either 4 or 12. And either way, it is never sufficient.
Instruments: Clarinet and Saxophone, mainly. Piano… learned under duress as a child, but I almost miss it now. It turns out things are much more enjoyable when you aren’t forced to sit still and practise scales every day.
What I’m Wearing: Green jumper and grey trackies, very boring. Changed as soon as I got home 😂
Dream Job: All I know with certainty is it could never be anything but science. I need to be in the lab, coming up with ideas, solving problems. Making new things. Testing theories. It’s the only future that doesn’t sound like a slow and painfully boring descent into perpetual ennui.

mtt playing poker but why would they bet with money thats soooo boring boo boo boo no they bet with increasingly worse and concerning things and its fun for some reason
oh theyd LOVE that shit istg. luck and bluff and tells and lies??? god who knows your own lies and deceit better than another version of yourself??? and yet picking up the other two's tells is oh so very hard because theyre not the same anymore than when they were all sans and sometimes they dont even know themselves so how could they pick up on a mirrored version's? it works out a lot more than they think
killer would have no disregard for what he bets. he plays unpredictably and sneakily. probably faking some emotion here and there to get the hasty (horror) confused and concerned about what he could do and then it turns out killer had a fucking ass hand yet he won??? BULLSHIT horror cries out!!!! but dust just picks up the cards on the ground and deals them again and they play another round. sometimes killer purposely loses. why? he dont know its just to throw a wild card into dust and horror's predictions and mayhaps for the reactions
dust is a dirty player he is a fucking CHEATER‼️‼️‼️ phantom paps are his eyes that he uses to spy on killer and horror's hands. would he need to even try anymore at that point when he could easily win every round? well yes because that wouldn't be a fun game and dust wants to have as much fun as he can in this game of lies. he pretends he doesn't know what horror and killer's hands are. they both know. theyre both more than aware of dust's cheating. and that's why their betting starts going against him specifically and then dust has to figure out how to bet them higher while also trying not to fuck himself over
horror's main thing is just to not get fucked over. goddamnit why did he agree to this he's not as open to getting hurt than dust or killer are!!! (but you still agreed anyways?) so he thinks he's the only one to have a real reason to win (because horror no wanna get hurty hurty owww owww painpainpain ouch!!!) maybe he gets too cocky and ends up betting too high because dust or killer had been losing and he wanted to take a chance. maybe that high bet was actually what got him to win?? it's all a game of chance of course and horror'll only show what he thinks after the round's done. when the cards are dealt and the stakes are up he'll just analyze the hell out of the two (don't YOU hate being analyzed??) and tap his fingers on the table over and over
their way of betting would be like: the winner gets to do whatever the other two said as their bets to the betters. like if dust loses and horror wins and he said he could get sucker punched horror is sucker punching the FUCK out of him. but these three argue they fight and bicker and throw gibes and taunts!!! how would they ever agree on what bets are higher and which are lower ⁉️⁉️⁉️ to horror a bet of saying that he'd have to eat something could be like straight hell to him but killer and dust could just put the argument that it doesn't REALLY mean that much (they know it does to horror) and then force him to bet higher because cmon coward you can do better than that!!! dont you want to get some sort of revenge on us if you lose a previous round and win this one??? and other forms of logic like that 4 dust and killer
killer starts off with an absurdly high bet (because he would) like getting to mess with his soul or something. is he sure that dust and horror have losing hands? he doesn't know. and because killer has no form of limit for himself and that's already a high bar to set for dust and horror to reach (if they don't have good hands i think they'd probably want killer to bet lower. but would they tell him??) so damn it horror has to pull out some bullshit fucking bet like he'll allow himself to get hunted down by the two with every trap he's ever set on a human in horrortale (sooo much more psychological thinking and trickery going on without betting money and instead scenarios its SO FUN). and then could dust fold? does phantom paps say he should? it depends on the cards dust has (and what if he doesn't believe paps based on his own assumptions? (paranoid bitch)) and if he can't fold he has to match the bet or go higher and then he comes up with some bogus situation like ok i'll let you guys dress me up in my human's clothes and throw me in an au and have to do what they did (and OH GOD what about if they make a bet that the other 2 wouldn't actually want to do if they win??? if killer won that round with that as dust's bet would he want someone to reenact something similar to what his own human did and have to watch??????)
oops they just got another new set of scars from last week's poker night and another layer of trauma but why the hell are they sitting down at the table again??? idk man i'm just the dealer here trying not to get killed
#keep in mind i dont know a damn thing about poker ‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️#they match eachother's freak#guys gambling is bad just know that. the trio gamble with eachother 100% every interaction is a gamble#gambling is so them i will not lie. everything about them is so gambling coded. casino trio#its addicting and also something they hate. something that represents the worst trait of them that the indulge each time they interact#and yet the pull is there and its fun in the moment and there are moments where taking the gamble was worth it and they dont hate eachother#but the losses always overshadow the wins and just staying addicted isnt helping them at all. but addictions are hard#and theres still some more to win so for the time being why not bet all you have and give everything up to the other two?#UGHHH THIS IDEA IS SO FUN AND AMAZING I NEED THEM TO BECOME REAL SO I CAN WITNESS THIS#I DONT KNOW HOW TO DEAL CARDS OR HOW TO BE A DEALER BUT ID LEARN JUST FOR THIS SIGHT I WOULD I WILL IM GONNA no im not BUT STILL#can people actually turn into the mtt and try to reenact this because i actually would kill to see this sight live#worlds best poker game dare i say. the stakes are HIGH dare i say HIGH!!!!!#now dont forget about the other factors like previous rounds or sudden impulses or selfish goals or current moods#GOD EVERY NIGHT WOULD BE SO MUCH FUN. i can understand the appeal of why they would keep playing even after all that#non violent bets. violent bets. bets of revenge bets to make motivations. the world is their oyster#this form of the trio's poker would be just a massive free for all of pushing boundaries and it all depends on luck#kist has russian roulette. horrorkiller has the knife game. mttpoly has trio poker. WHAT DOES HORRORDUST HAVE#you cant come up with terrible for themselves and eachother poker and put anybody but the trio in it#maybe nightmare's the dealer but tell me a single other utmv character that would play this???? NONE I SAY NONE!!!!!!#mtt are great bc their fanon nicer versions are so popular that i dont feel like shit when i either make them nice or evil#and eitherway canon or fanon their interactions are so much more interesting than anyone elses :333#the stars aligned three days ago and created three characters so perfect with eachother yet so terrible for eachother#killer sans#dust sans#horror sans#murder time trio#sans au#utmv#bad sanses#tricule hc

---------------------------------
Isaac watched the voice chat get quickly filled up as she quickly posted the link to the livestream in the chat. “Hoooooly shit,” Azazel muttered. “The fucking bitch is baaack no hohohooooooo.” “How the fuck is she even alive anyways?” Eden asked. “I’m scrubbing through the livestream. She looks like fucking Frankenstein.” “I don’t know! You can’t bring a week-old corpse back to life, and the receiving body should be rejecting the Pokemon tissue,” Beth said incredulously. “Well SOMEBODY found a way!” Laz yelled, sounding just as frustrated.
“Poor David, poor Joltik,” Maggie sniffed. “I couldn’t look at the stream longer than two seconds.” “We have people losing their shit too. Ray, and Hemp, yeah they’re gone I think,” Isaac said, opening Rotomblr in another tab and watching his dash explode.
His Gengar, Lostlore, floated up to her side. “Ghaaaiii!” Lostlore cried, and Isaac patted the top of his head. “Everything...well not everything is fine but I’m okay, boy,” she said. “We’re kind of freaking out about somebody coming back. I have no idea what we can do about this.”

damn. wish i had the time and patience to learn the coding required to make minecraft mods so i could playtest my ideas for fixing the enchantment system and find out if they’re actually any good
#squiggalicious#i have a few ideas. one of them involves gambling resources with the ability to outright buy at a high enough stake#i like that one even though it’s too complicated to be viable lmfao#anyway i know i Could learn to make a mod even a complicated mod but ya girl has no energy for that#gotta stick to stuff i already know how to do. like writing about gay people kissing each other#anyway i hope this doesn’t end up in too many unrelated searches. sorry if you’re seeing this lol

#yeah rl casinos are. a whole deal and a half#I hope we get to see what overlord husk got up to because there’s so much potential for horrible messed up shit
- @goated33
You! You get it! Like he was gambling with people's souls. He was gambling people! And most of those souls would've been either the desperate, gambling addicts at rock bottom with nothing else to bet, or won from people who were gambling the souls of others! Genuinely that'd be so fucked up!
Plus the screwed up fantastical casino concept is just... so cool. So much potential. I love fucked up casinos.
Husk having once been an Overlord makes so much sense when you look at his character design. The Overlords are the sinners who own the most souls. They also have visual theming that communicates what their entire "deal" is. Carmilla is made of steel and points and she sells weapons. Valentino looks like a pimp and works in the porn industry. Alastor is a radio host. Presumably their jobs and specialties (or simple conquest) is also where they get most of the souls they own, like Valentino with Angel Dust.
But there's a gap in the line-up. Gambling. There's no Overlord with an obvious gambling motif like Husk has. Out of all the exploitative industries where people could end up signing their very souls away, gambling seems like the most obvious. So as the only character who looks like they could be running a bunch of casinos where people go so broke they end up betting their souls, which Hell has to have, it fits Husk very well.
#hazbin hotel#like the high stakes poker table probably involved gambling hundreds of souls at once between Overlords and other heavy hitters#and of course Husk would still lose a lot even if during his heyday he was winning more than losing#so like... even IF Husk was generally nice interpersonally to the people whose souls he owned (for a guy who literally#owned them of course) he would likely still end up putting them on the table. and LOSING often#sometimes purposefully as part of a longer strategy to get someone to make a bigger bet#like imagine the instability. the dehumanization. the fact that at any moment your boss could bet your soul to a guy like Valentino#and like... he'd do it! he's a gambling addict who got his power by gambling souls#and maintains his power through a constant influx and output of souls in his casinos#plus for Husk to have bet his own soul he must've been in dire straits#which means he probably bet all the souls he wouldn't have wanted to risk normally (employees he was fond of or individuals he#was sympathetic towards. people who might've trusted him to look after them)#and he did it! he bet them and lost them! perhaps condemning them to an even worse life!#and like... I think it'd be a stellar depiction of the destructive nature of a gambling addiction yknow?#because at some point you do end up putting the people who depend on you on that table#just usually not so literally
