Gambling (I finally won!)


I really dont gamble at all because Im so cheap I hate to lose even a couple of bucks. I do however play Texas Holdem once in awhile with my roommates friends. They are all people who play online, goto casions and gamble a lot for the most part. None are cocky or think they are great, but they do it often.

Last night we had a small group It was 6 people and we played 4 'tournament style' games for a $10 by in each time. I came in second ($20) in one game and I won the last game which was a $50 pot winner take all. I was pretty psyched! I ended up being +$30 for the night overall.

A funny side note. One of the couples that usually plays gambles A LOT! They won $550,000 on a slot about 10 years ago and they have nothing to show for it at this point. Anyway, they have an 8 year old son who is WAY to smart for his own good. He plays Hold Em online and has used his dads account with REAL money. Well he was there last night and he WON one of the games! He SERIOUSLY beat out 5 other people and beleive me, NO ONE took it easy on him or anything and he really knows the cards and blinds and everything! World Poker Tour watch out....

I actually spent my bachelor party in vegas at the Flamingo playing video poker with my pops and my uncle getting free guiness and jack shots all night. It ended with my uncle dropping his pants on the strip and being forced into a vehicle where he passed out and spent the night. the wedding the next day was killer. As far as the video poker we lost about $20 each or so but drank Waaaaaay more than that worth of booze. So I won in my mind.

yeah, the drinks are deinitely an important part, but i find the more i start winning, or the larger the wager i have on the table, the less i'm drinking. i tend to keep a number of different bets out on a crap table, so you gotta remember how much you have where so get paid the right amount at the right times.

fortunately, i'm well up in my gambling career (*knocks on wood*), so i can safely say that the other dope part about gambling is...
