Default Re: * * * Official WPT Niagara Thread * * *

Ok, I'm not going to come any where close to doing this story justice, but I'm going to try to tell it anyway.

So, I'm in Niagara Falls Ontario in a quest to qualify for the the WPT. I played an 18 hr session through Thursday night and Friday morning. Cause I don't live in Ontario anymore, a buddy came to visit me tonight in Niagara.

So, we hit up Sundowner which is suppose to be the best gentleman's club in Niagara. That gets us warmed up. Then cause we're old (I'm 29), we hit a local bar to find some non teen bopper girls. So, anyway...get wasted at this local bar and decide it's time to hit the Fallsview casino for some late night black jack.

So, we get there and it still looks like the club dragonfly at fallsview is still going strong even though it is after last call. Well, we some how get in after last call, after close and it's still packed. We run into this beautiful 6'1" blonde I know from Kingston and end up leaving the bar with her.

We head to the casino still with the plan to play some BJ. Anyway, we're standing out front of the poker room and I decide to go in and see who I know that is playing. So, I talk to a guy that I know that is playing 50/100nl. After talking to him a bit and discussing going out tomorrow night, I head back to my friend and the tall blonde.

So, what do I walk into? Daniel Negreanu and my buddy are in some kinda high energy discussion. Apparently Daniel asked if he could punch my buddy for no reason (realize, we are all very drunk). So, my buddy, although not big, is very excitable and knows how to handle him self.

I'm a little confused by this part because my friend is very intelligent despite his usual actions, and it's hard to know when he's manipulating a situation. Anyway, I'm trying to tell him who he's talking to and why we should not make a scene. He says he doesn't know who Dan N is. Later he admits he knew the whole time.

Anyway, no one go overly aggressive or anything and it all seemed to be in good fun. Dan N wanted to punch my buddy for no reason, my buddy played it up, and when everyone is watching in front of the brush at the poker room, my buddy takes of his shirt and drops his pants...again, no apparent reason.

Obviously this attracts a large crowd. I'm trying to police everything by talking to Dan N and Mike Matusow and the security guards. It was crazy, funny, and kinda unbelievable.

After all the security shows up, Daniel is kind enough to help escort my buddy out to a cab with my help to make sure no one has any problems. It was all really crazy and I wish I was half way sober so I could tell it better.

Mike Matusow was surprisingly quiet through the entire thing.
