敲定宾厄姆顿牌局:total fish

有人干坐着,说这样等下去像要 get whacked(被做掉);两天内要把 7,300 块翻倍,还怕差一点没凑够。后来有人说自己在牢里输钱给狱警,被当成 total fish(十足的冤大头)。想学赌局黑话,这几句最实用。

发生了什么

两个人坐着盘算两天内把七千三翻倍,一句 come up a little short(差一点没凑够)把最怕的结果说得很具体——不是全输,而是就差那么一点。随后有人提起宾厄姆顿的牌局:十六七个市政工人刚领完工资就来打,油水很足,如果只赢一半就 we're home(我们就稳了)。为了说明怎么进得了桌,又讲起 in the joint(在监狱里)输钱给狱警、被当成 total fish(十足的冤大头)的经历。赌局、筹钱、聊风险,这些说法都用得上。

  • in the joint — the 很轻,重音落在 joint,别把三个词读满
We got 7,300, Mike. We gotta double that in two days.

我们只有七千三,麦克。两天内得翻一倍。 数字加期限,一句话把赌局压力摆上桌;gotta 口语干脆。

We come up even a little short, Grama will shoot us and bury us in a hole somewhere.

我们哪怕差一点点,格拉玛就会崩了我们,随便找个坑埋了。 把后果夸到黑帮片级别,荒诞又吓人;省略 if 更口语。

If we get even half of that, we're home.

哪怕只拿到一半,我们就稳了。 we're home 把成功说成到家,短促有画面。

You're gonna clean this game up. These guys are total suckers.

你会把这局赢个精光。这帮人全是冤大头。 clean up 和 suckers 一正一反,把自信和轻蔑压进两句话。

You wanna play straight? You go in there, I'll be back in eight hours.

你想规规矩矩打?那你进去,我八小时后来接你。 用条件问句下最后通牒,短句把拒绝说死。

关于这一章的问题

total fish 是什么意思?

指牌桌上技术差、容易被赢钱的人,也就是好宰的冤大头。台词里有人说,别人把他当成 total fish(十足的冤大头),说明他在牌桌上被看扁了。

「差一点没凑够」英语怎么说?

可以说 come up a little short。台词里 if we come up a little short 就是「差一点没凑够」,怕最后差一点点。

get whacked 是「被做掉」吗?

是。get whacked 意思是「被做掉」,黑帮片里常见。开头有人说坐在这儿感觉随时会 get whacked。

「在监狱里」除了 in prison 还能怎么说?

口语里常说 in the joint。台词里有人回忆 the whole time I was in the joint,就是「我在牢里那阵子」。

play straight 是「规规矩矩地打」还是「直着打」?

意思是规规矩矩地打、不耍花样。台词里有人提议坐到另一桌 play straight,另一句 you wanna play straight 也用了同一个说法。

we're home 是「我们到家了」吗?

不是字面上的「到家」,而是「我们就稳了、成功了」。台词里 if we get even half of that, we're home 意思就是只要赢一半就够本。
