Estimates for the 15k high rollers event are around 40-60 at the moment, but more and more big name players are showing up

Not Jerry Yang, as he wasn't allowed on my flight.

Not big names, but me, Alan Sass, Travis Rice are all playing, CTS is playing it too, Ruosso and Chad Brown are both here and (I'm assuming) playing it, RainKhan is playing it, I probably saw a few others who are in, but no huge names.

The last time I was in a whore house was nearly three years ago in Melbourne, only a couple weeks after having arrived again. Myself, Damon and Charlie had gotten boozed up at Crown casino, then wanted to show me where they spend their free time. The girls were brought in a row and presented by the manager, giving a name and a place of origin. Charlie whipped out a wad of money
“Which one do you want Tony?”
“Whores aren’t my thing Charlie.”
“Too bad, you are getting laid tonight.”
“I told you, not interested, not my thing.”
Charlie stiffened, then in an increased tone repeated.
“You are getting laid tonight my friend.”
Half drunk and annoyed with his stubbornness, I grabbed Charlie stern by the shirt and stared him intently in the eyes.
”Their not my [censored] thing Charlie.”
Despite having nearly a foot in height and 40 pounds on him, Charlie was not intimidated. Quote the Charlie
“You are getting laid tonight my friend.”
He was not to be deterred. I needed a diplomatic solution that didn’t make me look elitist. I reached into my pocket, ripped out my wallet, and grabbed the $120 dollars required for 30 minutes. I walked over to the manager and jammed it into his hand.
“Number 3, for my short friend over there. You’re going upstairs Charlie.”
Charlie didn’t refuse, while I sat downstairs waiting in the lounge with Damon, who couldn’t find a girl he liked.




Damn Bond, sellout. Goes straight home and tells his girlfriend what happened. She of course thinks 'wow gee whiz, gosh my guys such a saint.' Whereas i get the 'Charlie goes to whores?'
