short stories from Vegas

My roommates here are really cool. I'm having a blast hanging out with them. Last night we went out to a club called Blondies in the Aladdin Hotel and had a good time. "Gank" (wsop bracelet winner Brett Jungblut) and I played Beer Pong there and went 4-0 to keep his undefeated streak alive. The bar really wasn't that great but the people and beer pong made it a lot of fun. After that we went to a restaurant at the Aladdin and ordered breakfast. Josh, another one of my roommates actually chugged a whole bowl of Ranch Dressing for $200. The picture of him tipping back the bowl while it is streaming down the side of his mouth and onto his clothes was priceless. It's a good thing he did it also because he lost the coin toss and had to pay for the meal, which was just a hair under $200. After we got home we hung out for a while and Josh had a "friend" come over who he met while he was at a gentleman's club. We hot tubbed till like 8:00 a.m. and finally crashed by 9:00. The girl was actually really nice and not a stereotypical "stripper" like you would think.

Today we woke up late and I went and picked up my car at the repair shop. I also played a $300 NL tourney on Poker Stars with Nick and Josh. We actually killed the tournament and all final tabled. I took a rough beat and made a bad play and busted in 7th, but still won about $4,000 from the tourney. This trip is going really well and I hope it can keep up. On-line Phenom "SamENole" is stopping by tonight so it will be fun to meet another great player like him.
