Day one in the books...sort of

This is going to be the shortest post of all time.

Okay.

#1. Sorry Giraffe girl. Reader comment called me immature for making fun of her. Wife called me mean. Okay. I lost that one. I don't know...maybe if ya'all saw her it would be different. No? Okay. Sorry, Giraffe girl.

#2. I have had two autograph requests in the last day. Both times I handled it wrong. Honestly, its embarrassing...I think I am in the middle of getting punked by a buddy, so I am looking around. Then practically refuse to do it. I am not trying to be a jerk. Its just a little bit unbelievable. To those who requested them...THANK YOU. You truly flatter me.

#3. Keith is still snoring. I don't know what to do. I am now on my third AAA battery for my BOSE.

#4. Pretty sure I will NEVER play a limit tourney ever again. Played yesterday's $400 that started at 1pm. Ended at 11:15 with me getting in half my stack with JJ against this prick who (yes...HE was the prick who the whole table hated) puts me all in with A8. Ace on the flop. Out 37th, 19 from the money. Awesome.

#5. Christian '3 tourney wins in one day on Tilt' Iocabellis showed up last night. Me, him and Cutler spend some time slicing up the WSOP Hold'em casino game before going to B-Bar and getting lit. Still nursing a major hangover with 18 minutes til todays tourney starts.

#6. Patrick Swayze died yesterday. Bummer. That was one really cool guy. And very dedicated to his wife of over 30 years. Just a very, very good man. The World is a worse place today...but heaven is a better place. Rest in peace PS....you ran good!

#7. Meanwhile, down here on Earth, that cocksucker Kanye West is still breathing air. Can someone please do something about that? Taylor...don't sweat it girl, unintentionally the prick probably actually HELPED your career. And props to Beyonce for handling the whole thing perfect. You go girl! Save us all the apologies too Kanye...they ring hollow.

#8. The dealers here at Borgata might be the worst I have ever seen. The floor people, on the other hand...are very nice. I am continuing to be nice to the bad dealers....somewhere though I have a feeling I am going to snap.

#9. Girls in Vegas...5 times hotter. Girls in Atlantic City...5 times the snotty attitude of the girls in Vegas. What's wrong with this picture?

#10. Lost my valet ticket last night. Probably a good thing. Kept me from making the .74 mile drive back to our hotel (as yet undisclosed)....just found it though.

#11. Of my fantasy teams...five of them...I won 3 and lost 2. One of the ones I lost I had a $50 heads up bet with the guy. He clipped me on MNF because of Tom Brady. Thanks Tom....

#12. I witnessed a miracle last night. Someone held the door for me leaving the casino. Coming into my hotel, someone actually stood out of the way while I exited the elevator. Did everyone read my blog yesterday?

Okay...I am going to try and go play this tourney. It would be so great if they made 'back up brains' that you could keep in cold storage. I would be pulling mine out right now.

ok. After reading your blog for a year or so... I like this one the best.
1- Autograph. lol- I didnt know I had played with a poker star before. I love it.

2- The dealer comments; like your new style of saying they suck, but your holding it back. Really, thats cool of you. They are work in progress. Kind of like- hm, selling liquor. New dudes selling might suck, but the time goes by, they get better. Cool of you there Monk.

3- Comment about the rapper on stage; taylor swift thing. Weird how the president called him a jackass and thats okay... "he is the President..." bla bla bla. but it isnt cool for someone to say "You lie" to the pres. Interesting, you think? Never once in my life thought I would see a black president, smoked in the white house, cursed, and invited hommies over to drink... lol

(I think I am out of order of your list, but thats okay. You have ADD and can follow)

3- (3 again) referring to your #12, people being nice. Either they were; 1, people who youve never beat down at the table before or 2, people who don't envy your fun at the table or 3, people who havent participated in 86ing you or 4, some folks like me who like to read your blog.
I like the gestures.

4- Thats all the comments to your short blog this time.

Good luck at the tables.
ps, please dont post this.
