Goodbye Vegas, See You In A Few Months

I woke up yesterday still in a daze from the day before, which was an interesting day to say the least. I left one story out of the last post because it was already so long, but it's another involving Huck Seed. We were playing What does Johnny Lodden think and the question was "How many close girl friends do you have?" Huck started the bidding at 3 and it got to me and I said 6 and everyone insta-took the under. You'd think that would tip me off, but then Huck asked me if I wanted to make a sidebet on it and I really wanted to decline but he pulled the "C'mon man you gotta give me action" line, and I mean really, it's Huck Seed...when am I going to get to prop bet with him again? The sealer to deal was when he offered me 3:2 odds on a $200 bet, so I took it just hoping that this stripper was real easy to get along with or something. She crushed my dreams when she revealed her answer of 1 close girl friend. OMFG come on now...she must be a bitch or something. Mike told us a funny story about the last time he played the game there, and they asked Carmen the stripper how much she thought his friend Martin's watch cost, and she wrote it down. Mike knew the watch cost $7k but that's the cool part about the game...it makes no difference what the actual number is...the only thing that matters is what "Johnny" thinks it is. Anyway, he ran the bidding up to like $11k because he thought she would think it was worth way more and they all snap the under and Carmen revealed her answer of $100k. An $100k watch...really? Lol. I'm definitely looking forward to playing this game in Vegas this summer, as well as many other prop bets.

Anyway, we got up and went to Nfuego's inlaws for a while, then picked up his friend Todd and went into Mandalay Bay to play some 3/6 limit poker because Todd wanted to play in the same game as Nfuego. I figured I'd play in the game too even though I have no clue how to play limit poker...I've only played it once back in a casino in Oregon and hated every second of it. I started ordering Coronas as soon I sat down just to make it interesting. I start out playing almost every hand, and raising about every other hand. If you've never played limit before, here's a quick tip...DON'T PLAY IT. I wasn't in the game to make money though, so I was just raising and straddling and trying to bluff Nfuego off ace high on a JT753 board (obviously that didn't work because ace high is the nuts in limit). The table broke and I ended the session down about $70 and then went to play some 1/2 NLHE, where I made a quick $90. The only hand of note was when I iso'd with QTo and got 2 callers, flop came Q63 with two spades, I cbet and the button raises to $50 and I just shove in my $150. He snap calls me with QJ and the turn and river were both spades...I look at his hand...no spades...I resqueeze my hand...the Ts...ship ship!

I then went to sit in the 3/6 limit game that Nfuego, Todd, and his friend Mike were now playing. I cleaned up there by not playing like a total monkey, and finished up $150. Nfuego lost around 60 big bets in the game...which is like a work of art. He got QQ cracked by T4o, a set cracked by a runner runner flush, trips cracked by a gutshot...it was just so sick. He left tilted out of his mind so we decided to leave too to ensure that he wasn't throwing his roll down on red or something. LOL live limit poker!!! We caught up with him and he went to meet up with Mike to go to the Rhino and Todd and I went home to sleep. I wouldn't have minded going to the Rhino but I wanted to make sure one of us got some sleep and was able to drive the next day, since we had to leave by 10AM. The next morning we packed up and left Sin City, heading for another town full of fake tits...LA. About 4.5 hours and 2 heart attacks later (the drivers here are fucking crazy) we arrived at Jinmoon's place in LA, which is where we're staying for the next few days. A big thanks to him! Last night we hit up a German restaurant that had some nice German beer and some great sausage. How the hell do I say that without sounding gay? Anyway, I'm looking forward to seeing a lot of the sights around here, peace!

You can't say that without sounding gay. It's confirmed, you are a homo.
