20 piece nuggets and a strawberry shake

Riiiight

So we start by the three of us heading out to the casino. Brad, me and clark all get ready for a night of some gambling, Brad wants to head to RTO afterwards to hang with Pup. Brad throws $100 on blackjack. He's down to the felt as I walk over, he get 9/2. I'm like "if you had more money, you could double." As he's reaching for his wallet (evidently you can lay money on blackjack mid hand unlike poker) and the dealer pitches out a face card, we both scowl at him and brad collects his chips. Then proceeds to go all the way up to 300. Brad's already up, my table just got called so I sit at $4/8. I can sum up my $150 in 4 hands.

A/face, board comes 2/A/x. I bet, 1 caller. Turn = X, I bet, same caller. River = 7, I bet, I caller. Yep, you guessed it, the bastard, two off from the button, had 2/7off. "that's my lucky hand!" I frown and mutter something about "that being poker".

4 hands later, A/face again. Board comes 77A. I bet, same caller. Turn=2. Yep, you guessed it, this fucker just pissed me off to no end. I'm fuming, but wait, it doesn't get better.

Later, A/J, board comes A/J/x. I bet, 1 caller (different guy). This hand wasn't raised preflop mind you. Turn is the J. I check, he bets, I raise, he calls. River=x. I bet, he raises, I call. He's got the AA. The case freaking Aces. To Mr. Powers that says "you shouldn't always assume that they have the nut hand," I say...something mean. :(

Final hand, A/Q, no preflop raise...whatever. Basically the same thing happens, an Ace comes and someone has AA. I'm fuming.

I go and see if brad's ready to go. He cashes out at 6/12...up...oh...about $800 or so. He's like...uhh...boobies. I'm like, obviously, who am I to say no to a strip club. Clark's out, for some reason, even though Brad was basically treating.

Yadda, yadda, strip club. Brad almost pulls a Marcus and tries and tells me that this stripper has something for him.

We get out of there at about 2:30, make it to McDonalds for some food. We roll up to the drive through, I'm tired and B-rad is a bit tipsy. I'm like "whatcha want". That's right you guessed it..."20 piece nuggets and a strawberry shake." There was nothing I could do, it was late and I started laughing hysterically. The window person thought we were crazy. Thank goodness for the shower to get the smell of smoke and stripper off the body before I head to bed. All in all, it was an excellent night and I'm beat.

Tip of the Day: Don't have porn running on the video ipod when you roll up to the drive through window. It may get you some strange looks.

g'night folks

See, it's times like this when I wish I was done with school so I could roll with ya.

2-7. For crying out loud. When that happens, G, that's God's way of telling you not to play any poker that night.

Yeah, NO KIDDING! How horrible, Girard. Who's this Brad asshole, what a pervert.

Poor Girard, I know it sucks, but honestly, those guys give you money in the long run. Just need to wait it out. :(

That obviously sucked, but the advice stands. :)
