Don't You Hate it When I Do This?

Damn.

Just damn.  

As suggested in my previous post, I did indeed return to L.A. on Monday. 

I was way too exhausted Monday night to even consider writing a blog post.  I was barely able to get off my couch.

Then Tuesday night I had a "great" idea for a blog post I could write fairly quickly off the top of my head (as opposed to having to work from my voice notes).  Well, it seemed like a great idea until I started  writing it.  I was about half way through it when I realized it was absolute garbage, totally unusable.  

Sadly, by the time I realized I had to trash it, there was no time to write a replacement post--a "real" post--in time to get it posted this morning.

So I have nothing for you good folks right now.

Sorry.

All I can do is tease you about what's to come when I have a chance to sit down at the computer and type my guts out relating all the crazy and interesting things that happened this last time in Vegas.  And yes, I still have material from earlier trips (mostly the big December trip) to get to.

I do have tales to tell.

I hope that my next post will be the follow up to the previous one, as I kind of left you hanging, talking about the terrible run of luck I was having and that I was heading out for my last session of the trip.  So I hope to get to that next time.

Another post (or two?) will be an interview with a Vegas poker dealer/floor person on the state of poker today.  This will be a much longer version of a profile I turned in for Ante Up.  It will contain all the stuff I couldn't put in the magazine.

I met another one of "those" woman.  I'm calling her Leona and she was auditioning to be the nasty version of my pal Prudence--the Prudence that used to drink a lot while playing poker (that Prudence is gone, and good for her).  This "lady" out vagina-mentioned that Prudence.

Oh, in the session I just referred to, I was, at various times, called a Mormon, a dirty old man and....Costanza, again.

I enjoyed the wildest, craziest poker session of my life.  It was the best 1/2 NL game ever, at least form my perspective.  The action was insane.  Hundreds of dollars sliding back and forth across the table--mostly between two players, but I got my share, I assure you.

Meeting the delightful Jennifer Gay while watching the Super Bowl from the Excalibur poker room, of all places.

A short but sweet session at Planet Hollywood.

Then there was the nip-slip I didn't see and the girl wearing the shortest dress in the history of clothing (that I did see)....but I dunno if I can get away with telling those stories without presenting myself in a rather unflattering light.

There's more, but that's enough tease.  

Just to leave you with something that isn't just a promise, a quick story from Saturday nite.  I was in the parking elevator at MGM when a young couple came in.  She was wearing a bridal gown.  He was holding her train and wearing a tux.  I said to them, "I wonder what you kids are doing tonite?"

They laughed and the bride-to-be said, "Umm....we're going sightseeing."

Is that what the kids are calling it these days?

Sorry for this post, but stay tuned.  I believe it will be worth the wait.

    1. @Mojo: Damn! I should have remembered that you've spoken about Jennifer and mentioned you to her. Sorry. As it was, the only blogger we discussed was Tony.

      @anger: I agree....what????? As in what do you mean, what?????

    2. She knows my face (unfortunately for her, lol), but may not know my name. We talk at tournaments, and in fact she dealt to me in the Seniors last summer and noticed I had a good stack. She's originally from a Memphis suburb.

    1. As a matter of fact....see above comment to MOJO....yeah we did discuss Tony. But that was a very small part of our conversation.

    2. There was a point in time where JG extended offers for some chauffeuring to TBC maybe for that last shot at SSI and/or healthcare stuff. IIRC her offers didn't mesh up well with TBC's schedule and it all turned into a nonstarter. She is a sweetheart!

    3. Yes Lester, she did make some very generous offers to Tony and she is a sweetheart. More about her to follow when I do that post.

  3. Leave it to you to write a long blog post saying that you've got nothing to say.

    1. Long blog post? Seriously? It was only 596 words. That's practically a Tweet.

    1. I thought that was a pretty good pic, trying to find a sexy wedding dress. Not easy.

      Having difficulty finding something appropriate for my next post. What I was looking for was a pic of Charles Barkley with a really sexy chick, but amazingly, I can't find one.
