Bobby played poker for his years and lost,  so Dean goes to try and save him.  He buys in for 50 years and immediately cashes out half of them for Bobby.  Ah yes, self-sacrifice, the official motto of the Winchester family

The game gets underway as Dean does battle with Patrick, or as Dean cleverly calls him, a Man Witch.  The next thing we see is Sam coming back to their motel and finding an old man.  It is, of course, Dean.  Oh, now I get it, Jensen Ackles wanted a week off, so they a wrote an episode where he could be off-screen for half of it.

There are a few jabs at Dean being old, the best being that when he starts eating his standard lunch and dinner, a bacon cheeseburger, he thinks he's having a heart attack, but it's just acid reflux.  Even with that warning, however, Dean will still eat bacon cheeseburgers at every meal after he's cured.

Old Dean also tries to shamelessly hit on the hot young maid, but she shuts him down, laughing at the horny old grandpa.  It's funny, but are any hot young women really maids at seedy motels?  I don't think so.

They decide to do some research and try to steal back the supposedly magic poker chips by breaking into Man Witch's apartment.  The boys are caught by Man Witch and his lady friend, She Witch.  But they're nice witches, so they let the boys go without any problem, since it's not the chips that are magical. 

However, he does leave Sam with a parting gift and claps his hand together three times.  Old Dean is smart enough to figure out that Man Witch just gave Sam gonorrhea, aka the clap.  I'm pretty sure Sam wasn't the Winchester I expected to see contract and STD, and I sure didn't think he'd get it from a dude.
