After slowly removing my tail from my legs, I'm greeted by two dealers as "Mr. Tequila!" and "Mr. Oregon!" and immediately I realize that I was probably more of a jackass than originally thought the night before.

That's just beautiful.

If you made this the OP of a whole different thread, I bet it would inspire a good series of posts.

Chris hates the song, hates Rick Astley, and hates the whole rickrolling thing -- so much so that I put a Rick Astley ringtone on my phone just to bug him the entire trip. I wake him up, tell him the amazing thing that is happening, get told to go fu** myself, and get hung up on.

My second favorite bit from this TR. Man, do you know how to bust a buddy's balls.

A+++

Sorry baby, your flopping skills cannot compete with my runner-runner full house skills. Keep playing your little 3-card poker game.

Not bad to wring something readable out of a hungover afternooning of watch-the-paint-dry poker. NH again.

Nice read. Thanks.

I would have lost money playing that incredibly slow 2/4 limit at IP if it weren't for Flop a Lock [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

It's an especially fun game if you're a fan of 15 hands per hour, sometimes 12 if you get the type of people that run super-advanced Monte Carlo simulations in their heads for 45 seconds as they decide whether or not to call with Jack-deuce on a AKQJ3 board.

Oh, and not to mention that at the last night at IP, there were numerous occasions where, during a showdown, both players sat there and stared at each other waiting for the other to turn over their cards. At one point I said out loud, "Just turn over the god damn cards already!" Of course, Jabba was one of them every hand.

So frustrating.

Later on the same lady will see me fold King-Ten offsuit under the gun when the cards accidentally flip over when I toss them in. She says, "Wow you're really tight!" and I laugh and say "yeah, I know", all while trying to ignore the painful memories of an intrusive doctor's visit a couple years ago.

ROFL!

Great series of reports. Makes me even more fired up for my trip down there next week!

Bump for the several llol moments I experienced during this thread.

This one is easily the best though:

Outstanding report. I have no idea how I missed this.

My buddies finally wake up and check out of the room and we decide to have the most disgusting pizza ever at a place between Harrah's and Casino Royale for lunch. Even thinking about it right now makes me queasy.

[/ QUOTE ]

Beat.

Actually, you guys are kinda morons for even thinking about eating at the pizza place. And with Chipotle ten feet away. WTF is wrong with you?
