Update:

Deepstack at 2pm today. I have to leave harrahs in an hour (no comp'd late check out at this joint) so i'll be heading to the rio.

Last night SHENANIGANS were definitely afoot as I met Jack Daniels at the bar downstairs when he was done with his 08 tournament.

No we've all seen his pic from the other thread so there's no point in me posting it, nor did I even take his pic, but this dude is straight from england. Thickest accent ever, and it just got thicker as he and I got drunker.


After deciding we'd do some +EV drinking, by playing video poker for drinks, but betting the absolute minimum so the light would turn on. Now we figured out that if you keep playing, the light takes longer to turn on. (also, if you hit the max bet button it seems to reset, so just hit it once and then keep hitting deal) So, we just printed a ticket, and inserted it into machine. The first bartender at harrahs obvs carded me. he thought I was half my age. Nice.

The second bartender wasn't as cool as the first one, and actually made us play the machines, and he poured Jack Daniels the weakest fucking Jack n Coke i've ever tasted. After hassling' the dude for a moment (not in a bad way, he was being funny about the weak drink) the bartender actually came over with a shot of JD and put it in his drink. I was shocked actually.

After that, we decide it's time to get cigarettes and find another +EV bar to drink at. We make our way to the Linq, and we find this bar in the middle of the joint and we sit down. Same thing, put money in, play minimum bets, get free drink. I start playing, and I get my drink, and JD doesn't even play a hand, just puts money in and somehow gets a drink. We cheers to +EV drinking and head off to find cigarettes at the CVS. That's when we noticed the show was live, and i started to call in. When you heard me I on the strip, tourists everywhere, and a drunk Jack Daniels talking to EVERYONE. It was classic.

Ok. Cigarettes. Check. Jack Daniels. Check.

One of the first things I asked JD when I met him is if he wanted to go shoot pool. And to my surprise, he wanted to shoot, and knew a spot where we could find pool tables. SWEET. We high tail it over to the MGM Grand and go in and sure enough, there's a bar, with pool tables. We get next game, and win (I sunk 8 ball on a cross table cut shot to the back corner pocket) and then we win the next one after that, and finally we find Drexel and we leave the MGM to go to the Palazzo where he is.

Walking down the strip, Jack Daniels is hammered and trying to hail taxi's in one of the worst ways possible, on the curb on las vegas blvd. I'm not even from here, my first time, and i'm telling him "yeah it's probably illegal for them to stop on the street." but he didn't beleive me, so every few minutes he'd stop, and try and hail a cab. When we passed the Paris, we found a cab and that's exactly what he told us: it's illegal for him to stop. he had seen us too. I guess that's karma.


Ventian Hotel is our next location. ONly that's not where drexel is, he's in the pallazo playing.........

S T A D I U M B A C C A R A T

YUP. Just like nearly 24 hours before, Brandon was wit Leapin Larry in the pit, having a blast. Traderrooski was also there. And just like the night before, Leapin Larry is on his system as well as drexel. they are firing off bets.


THEN THIS HAPPENS

Brandon decides he's gonna fire off 1500 on the banker. It goes down like the Hindenburg as the player wins. So.....what does he do? he mutters something like "fuck it" and proceeds to put $3500 on the bank. He gets a ZERO (2 monkeys) and he's up against the players 7. He's got 2 fucking outs for $3500.



He hits it a fucking 8, and we all start cheering as all of us were sweating this one. ONly, I think i might've been the only one who saw the $1500 loss before, and saw him put the $3500 down. Leapin' Larry thought it was less.

Before they cashed out their tickets, they had to somehow get the change off (when you bet on the banker you pay a comission and thus you're left with amounts ending in 90 cents) so after figuring out some sort of mathematical equation (im sure it was just simple math and i was drunk) they each fire off a bet. they win. the amounts go even. and then they printed them. He said it's always bad luck to leave change on the ticket. Sounds good to me.


Ok, that's enough for Drexel, so he cashes out and we go to the high limit cage to cash out and then Drexel asks if we want to play "Pop Dice"

Pop Dice, is only explained as something that belongs in a Dave n Busters, only you gamble on it. There's 2 giant dice in this enclosure and then there's a craps layout on a screen in front of you. Everything is normal craps. When its time to roll, the dice start shaking and then you hit a button (like giant red button im not kidding) and the dice pop up and land on numbers.

Of course, I lose $5.

Jack Daniels however, rolls 6 passes while the entire time Leapin Larry is betting on 10, hoping for a crap out before so he can collect. RIGHT AS HE SAYS "ok one more roll then im just gonna cash this out and eat the money (he was down like $20. and Leapin' Larry sets goals, and he accomplishes them, but this one he wanted to let go) JD rolls a fucking 10 and Leapin goes down in flames.

Exepct Leapin' Larry didn't go down without a fight. He fires off 200 more on 10. and FINALLY JD craps out, and Leapin Larry recoups his money, minus $5.

So....Fast Finger roulette time!!!

I've never seen this before, but apparently all you gotta do is have fast fingers and stop the roulette wheel on your number. and that's what he did! 5 fucking times in a row. in about 10 seconds. Makes his $5 back and we leave.

We parted ways shortly after, as I was tired and had to be up to check out of my room.


Tonight i'll be staying at the rio, since a very nice person (who will remain nameless right now) has said they can probably get me a room there for free.


Ok I gotta pack and jet out of the hotel. Enjoy the sweat today fellas.

Well, the good news is it sounds like larry did get laid last night. The bad news is it was with some drunk guy from England. Laid is laid I guess....

Love ya but your balls are showing here. There's pissing away money and there's pissing away money. I don't care if he takes first this is pissing away money if you know what I mean.

100%... never said it was +ev. But a good mini sweat. Plus entertainment for everyone.

[LarryLaffer]

Pooh, eat shit.


sitting on 31150


cracked a set of kings

[wrenchjockey]

This looks like the makings of a STAKE OFF.

Did someone get served yet?

[Pooh]

me drexel jack daniels and leapin larry are degening it up at Pop Dice.


i'm about to head back to my hotel bc i gotta be up for deep stack.

stay tuned drexel has pics.

At least now I think we now why laffer has no shot with the women. Rumor has it last night was steak night with brandon and a few other guys. Imagine our larry laffer walking in to a fine restaurant wearing his sweet ghetto White Sox hat while toting around a backpack big enough to make it look like he's living on his huffy. And nothing screams I'm hung like a horsefly more than a five foot two dude who sounds like a character on Sesame Street. Who the hell wouldn't want that for one night?

The guy could be the funniest dude in the world and they'd still be laffing at him.

[Suicide King]

Larry win this and extend your stay. I'll be there on Wednesday.

[WillieMcFML]

how many chips did you start with larold?

[WillieMcFML]

.

has anyone ever seen jack daniels and jungleman in the same room?

[DonaldTrumpsHairPiece]

Pooh, I like ya but come on, lay off Larry, attacking someone's looks and work like that is cruel. I am all for jousting and what not but it's rather personal. Considering your current situation should you not show some compassion?

Also small character guys don't get pretty women eh....There isn't enough room in the thread to post all their pics. And before you say he has money I again suggest you consider your situation before talking.




GO GET EM LARRY!

[LarryLaffer]

how many chips did you start with larold?

15k


have 40k now.

My current situation? What is that exactly?

I never made fun of his looks. Larry isn't a terrible looking fella. You expect the guy to try to look like a decent human being when he goes out, that's all. The short thing is whatever.

Thank you

[LarryLaffer]

pooh started it


lol at dressing up to degen in the pits with JD, drexel, leapin, and trader.

[BetCheckBet]

I'd figure some of you guys would know better than to harass someone while they are in a WSOP event, especially when Cmoney is the staker...

Also shocking to see how many people here are legitimately rattled and jealous of Larry...

[Pooh]

shame you weren't more into actually playing POKER instead of making updates from your phone to a half asses poker forum during your free ride to Las Vegas

you might have gone a lot deeper than a few hands after the dinner break if you weren't so consumed with posting on a stupid fucking message forum

great pics of Barry and Will though

maybe if they were autographed prints, cmoney could put them on Ebay to make back about .00001% of what he invested in you

but hey man...

go have a NICE DINNER

num num num

you'd have made it further? You should come and play an event. I made it to dinner with 15bb bc I hadn't seen a hand and I know how to play poker and I was waiting for a spot (which I found, and happened to brick. but it was a 15 out draw.)

you're a shitbag you know that? I'm in my hotel room enjoying myself while I plan my evening. That's why i'm updating MY TRIP REPORT THREAD you stupid mother fucker.

I will enjoy dinner. I think im meeting up with Brandon for steaks.

something tells me you're going to be napping soon, for coming into this thread and shitting on it like you do everywhere else.

Interesting
