Sooo in need of a translation:

>I do this by aggressively getting into the bank on tables.

What does "getting into the bank" mean? What game is being played?

>We call the players who aggressively chase the bank "bank-chasers."  Two 
>nights ago I had a particularly rude and obnoxious bank-chaser on my table 
>who was managing to get into  as many banks as I was (sacrelidge).

See above. Huh?

>Then comes the kicker.  There's a bank where my parter and I have enough 
>money on the table to cover the first big bet and nothing else.  I cover 
>the rest alone.  Awful hand, King high, in the bottom twenty possible 
>hands--not twenty percent, twenty hands. Kills the first big bet, loses 
>everything else.  I'm laughing.  Everyone looks at me like I'm crazy.  I 
>turn to my partner and say, "See, I told you--you go with corporation, you 
>make money.  Don't care nothing else."   Everyone at the table laughs.  I 
>take back two of his three partners.  Bank chaser gone.

Huh? What? Also: Bwah?
