JOEY'S IN A GOOD MOOD TODAY AND HAS DECIDED TO ENLIGHTEN YOU PIGS ABOUT A SMALL PART OF POKER HISTORY AND THE FIRST TIME T.J. CLOUTIER EVER LEARNED TO FEAR PLAYING IN THE SAME GAME WITH JOEY. IT WAS MANY YEARS AGO IN CALIFORNIA. A FAT PIG OPEN RAISES FROM MIDDLE POSITION. I HAD NEVER SEEN THIS DISGUSTING PERSON BEFORE. BUT, HE NEVER STOPPED TALKING: "I NOW EVERYTHING ABOUT POKER & CRAPS." "I'M GOING TO WRITE A BOOK ABOUT BEATING CRAPS." "I CAN'T WAIT TO GET TO THE BUFFET." JOEY DEFINITELY NEEDED TO TEACH THIS HUMP A LESSON. EVERYBODY FOLDS TO ME IN THE SMALL BLIND. I WANT TO PLAY THIS HAND HEADS UP SO I THREE BET WITH EIGHT THREE OFFSUIT. THE BIG BLIND FOLDS AND THE HUMP RERAISES. I CALL. BEFORE THE FLOP, I TELL THIS PIG EXACTLY WHAT I'VE GOT "EIGHT THREE OFFSUIT, PIG". THE FLOP COMES ACE EIGHT THREE WITH TWO SPADES. I BET OUT SAYING "TWO PAIR". THE FOOL RAISES ME. I THREE BET AND SAY "THE DEALER IS GOING TO FILL UP SO NO FREE CARD FOR YOU". THE PIG CALLS. THE TURN IS A KING. I BET. HE RAISES. I RERAISE. HE RERAISES. I RERAISE AND SAY "DIDN'T I TELL YOU THE DEALER IS GOING TO FILL UP?" HE CALLS. THEY ALWAYS GET INTIMIDATED WHEN JOEY PREDICTS THE RIVER CARD. I BET BLIND. THE RIVER CARD COMES A THREE. THE HUMP CALLS. WHY? I SHOW MY BOAT. THE PIG TRIED TO MUCK FACE DOWN BUT I INSIST ON SEEING HIS CARDS. HE HAD ACE KING OF SPADES. "PIG, YOU HAVE A LOT TO LEARN ABOUT POKER. NEVER FORGET THE NAME JOEY". I FINISHED UP MY WINNING SESSION AND HEADED TO THE BUFFET. I WAS GETTING SOME TOSSED SALAD WHEN THAT SAME UNKNOWN PLAYER ATTACKED ME FROM BEHIND. NO PLAYER HAD EVER ATTACKED ME JUST BECAUSE I WON HIS MONEY. WHAT'S UP WITH THIS? I DIDN'T KNOW HOW TO REACT. I TRIED TO DEFEND MYSELF BUT HE WAS SO FAT THAT I COULDN'T GET HIM OFF ME. HE THEN TORE MY PANTS OFF. I NEED TO TALK DELICATELY HERE. HE REPEATEDLY INSERTED A PART OF HIS ANATOMY INTO MY ANATOMY. WHEN HE WAS SATISFIED, HE SAID "I GUESS I FILLED YOU UP THAT TIME. NEVER FORGET THE NAME T.J. CLOUTIER". BUT, I WAS THE ONE WHO REALLY ENDED UP ON TOP. I PAID FOR MY BUFFET WITH HIS MONEY. SEE YA AND WOULDN'T WANT TO BE YA, YOU FAT HUMPS.

Having a bunch of little diamonds on a bracelet actually adds little to the value. A bunch of 1 point diamonds can be had for very little money, and add a lot of bling to the item. Most of the value is the weight of the precious metal, and I'm pretty sure there has never been a WSOP bracelet that cost Binions or Harrahs even close to 40K. Later, Greg Raymer (FossilMan)
