ok poker fans we wrap up another exciting
atlantic city trip with a stroll down the boardwalk to
the tropicana.
in a shocker it's back to all rags as i spend almost an hour folding Q5 and K4 in a 246 limit contest.
although they rarely win a game now
the phillies are absolutely pounding the washington nationals like 12-0 in the first inning on this night. i'm about to fall asleep but suddenly wake up when the tv skips over some porn channels on the way to a new game that some of my opponents may have a little action on.
anyhow i'm fading out but still watching the game like a hawk and when it's supposed to be my big blind but the dealer moves the button twice i play dumb, stay quiet, just toss out my small blind and look down at
AA.
i feel bad for the big blind when i flop a set and turn a boat against his turned flush but i take no prisoners and pound him without mercy. and when i get
AA again in the very next hand i win another one to suddenly move ahead for the game!!!
unfortunately though that's all the winning i do and up $11 i head back down to my car at
bally's where i'm too depressed to go straight to my car and end up at a blackjack table. this is a sure sign that it's time to call 1-800-gambler but hey, it's saturday night in atlantic city.
an hour later i'm down three digits and cursing myself for not heading straight to the garage.
when i move to third base though i begin a rally and notice a
redbird laying on the floor at my feet. i know the eye in the sky is watching us all but please kick me out of atlantic city for picking up this casino property.... PLEASE!!
i hide the chip under my foot for a round or two and eventually make my move when i reach down to "tie my shoe."
i add the chip to my normal bet, get a blackjack, and slip to the cage with a pink chip of profits for my troubles!!
thank you for reading!
