I played last night at Commerce and Jamie was at my table.
Long Story 20-40 blinds called 300 with Q-10 off Q high flop, Bet 2k he called, blank on turn I pushed, only had about 3500 more and he called he caught a ten on river. He was on the board for the a bigger game 50-100 I think and he left shortly thereafter but he was very nice.
We actually had another hand when I called the 40 with Q Q but I used a 100 chip, he was talking to his buddy and thought I raised so he put 5 20 dollar chips in, so he inadvertantly raised, then a third guy called, I announced a reraise and he says " You just raised!!! " He found out he made a mistake but the third guy was actually a friend of mine so when he said "lets play for the 100" with no raise I said ok, I know he is not an angle shooter so I gave him, and jamie in effect a pass. Flop came rags and I took pot down. Jamie and I spoke after that, he commented that I was a gentleman or something and we talked about our neigborhood. Turned out he lives less then a mile from me, I knew he lived in malibu because of TV shows but did not know where.
Everyone was there last night after the tourney broke for the night, the main event is on now, I saw everyone just hanging out.
Mike sexton, the grinder, freddy deeb, antonio's good buddy sat next to me at the main game of the 20-40 and came over to bitch at him for blowing him off for dinner. Barry greenstein, eric lingren, gable kaplan, huck seed, etc etc these were just the guys at the 3 or 4 tables right around me that I noticed. It was a good time , I lost about 7300 playing nine hours which is a long time for me, but it was a nice group. What shocked me is HOW MANY of these guys know each other. I am not talking about the famous ones, or even the small time pros, I mean EVERYONE. It is like that type of game is a relatively small communtiy, smaller then I thought and I know alot of players from vegas but rarely see them outside Las vegas, it was a good time.
Enjoy work tomorrow
