Not going to say why January 13th is an important date to me, that is private. But it is also the day I damn near got murdered.
I was hammered at a casino, and while drunk I was not blind drunk. I still had my senses. Put it this way, I was propositioned by a smoking hot prostitute, not one of those skanky ones but a legit call girl. I had cleaned up on the roulette wheel earlier in the day to the tune of like $4 grand, I literally had $100 black chips falling out of my pocket. She actually came up to me and said a handful of those could make my world or something like that. I considered, but I just though better of it. She actually got pissed at me when I declined and I noticed when she was leaving she had a Jesus cross behind each ear, WTF?
Anyway, I went into the pit and promptly lost $2,000 of my winnings. Craps just killed me and I had the dice so only myself to blame. I took the remainder of my stash and went to the 2-4 table. After trading $500 back and forth, I finally got my hand. A fucking set on the turn. You dream about that, and no draw on the board. There was a Q on the board and the guy turned over QJ suited after I pushed. We know how it turned out, flush.
He was a rather enormous black dude, and when he scooped all my chips, I said Fuck Off. Yes I was in the wrong, and the floor was called and I was asked to leave, and cut off of alcohol. Someone on the staff remarked we had enough of this guy, meaning me. Yes, I was going Jewdonk all day long on everyone.
I was staying at the casino, and forget my dob kit in the car and walked to the parking garage, it was 2am or so. Dark and Cold. Turned around and a car sped up and yep, the enormous black guy jumped out and put a gun right to my forehead. It was cocked. I said bro, I have a 4 year old daughter. No I did not have kids at the time but that was went into my head. You got lucky tonight muther fucker was what I remember he said and they just took off.
Moral of the story, never go into an unlit parking garage after mouthing off to a random poker dude. There is plenty of tooth brushes and stuff at the front desk.
