Some gossip and reporting from Commerce

A friend of mine who knows and has played with Gus Hansen tells me that Gus is down 1.4 mil for February. This is direct from Gus to my friend.

Neverwin looked as worn down as I'd ever seen him. Even with his latest online rush, I believe he is still busto with all the debts he has spread around. Of course, he still managed to get a stake to play in the 500/1k. I'm pretty sure he lost about 50k that night.

I played with Brandi in the 100/200 holdem game one night. After getting to the table, she jumps right into telling the table 2 very sexual stories, one of which involved a girl housemate of hers from years ago that she walked in on masturbating. They went out together to a sex toys store and at the time Brandi was still sexually conservative or whatever.

Brandi certainly met my expectations for horrible poker play. She's just so random and bad. One hand she had like 8 high on the river on the button and hopelessly bluffed into 3 other people after the flop and turn both got checked through. She will float pf with offsuite connectors hu, peel the flop with her unders or backdoor draw in position but then just checks through turn hu hoping to hit when bluffing would be way better.

It was also very distracting to have her messing around with her nipples at the table. I couldn't figure out what the f she was doing and was later told by the guy she’s dating that she was wearing nipple covers instead of a bra and was probably adjusting them lol. Classy. She busted from the table right before her massage ended but according to her boy toy, she told him next day she booked a 9k win. Hmm.

I heard about some crazy $400k pot from the 200/400 NL game where Esfandiari had the nut straight on the flop vs lower straight vs Sammy Farha's flush draw. It would be really cool if someone who was in that game could recount the hand.

I embarrassed myself in the 200/400 Badugi, 2-7 and a-5 game as I had a hard time concealing so many damned cards and misread one of my badugi hands. I thought I made a T high badugi and got one of Men the Master's protégé’s all in with 2 cards to go, he missed but I had 2 spades in my hand, dammit. Luckily he was short stacked and it only cost me $800, it was still embarrassing though. I got to play with Mimi Tran, Neverlose and Doc (aka School Bus from ub) and they all seemed to play well. I have some hands to recount from my play but I'll post those on deathdonkey.com later.
