Table Tango

Sounds slightly promiscuous, doesn’t it?  That would be playing poker around town type of playing around.  Since I’m the resident slacker of Bellagio’s poker dealing staff, I’ve managed to spend more and more time on the playing side of the green felt.  Marie manages to spend quite a bit of that time with me.  Gary and Marie play poker pretty much on a daily basis.  Gary likes the $20-40 H games at The Mirage and plays $30-60 H at Bellagio on occasion.  Marie plays the smaller limits, like me, and we manage to meet up at the tables, usually two to three times a week.  We try to play in different rooms, check out the crowds, watch the action, win a few $$, and just enjoy the fine game of poker.  (more…)

*post continued*  Perhaps I’ve not mentioned lately how much I enjoy playing poker when I have no stress to do anything, like a clock in my face, or some other issue that needs tending NOW!  Back to the game that had me in stitches.  I found out that the 9s’s name is Ryan.  Stephanie pulled out her handy dandy instaconnect to the internet phone and looked it up on Google (or The Google as President Bush referred to it).  Ryan translates to king.  They had more than a few words on that subject.

I’m sincere when I tell you I laughed my ass off through most of my play in a $4-8H game at Bellagio last night.  Sometimes you just have to be there to get the full effect, and for the most part, that’s exactly the way this is but I’ll try to paint the picture so you get half as big a kick out of it as I did.  (more…)

All of the info about these cards can be found here:

And the images are all of the face cards and Aces, the jokers, the door card, and other important info about the deck, no explanation needed for the most part, so kick back, stare at this incredibly beautiful deck of cards, and enjoy.

Of course I’m a lunatic about titles on Spam and the way they try to hook all of us in to opening, and reading their drivel and slop, that they should be shot for (through the legs so they can’t walk) and be forced to sit at the computer from hell for the rest of their lives, answering SPAM.  Of course regular readers know my views on Spam as I’ve posted more than once about the non-stop slop and most of it’s sexual in nature…like there are women waiting to meet me…pshaw!  Get out of here!  (more…)

I may give up the Roman numeral system of Project City Center updates.  The project is so far ongoing that I may not be able to figure out what the next one is at some point.  Ok…now for all of you absolutely brilliant people, you can send them to me in an email or in a comment or send me the URL where I can bookmark it for future reference.  Speaking of help, I’m wondering where my possible future husband went to.  Marriage proposals, no questions asked, and then *BOOM* nothing.  Perhaps someone else caught his eye… (more…)

Over the last week or so I’ve become more and more distressed with the ban on internet gambling being signed into law. I have hated the idea of it for quite a long time, way back before a lot of internet poker players even had any idea that such a shitty little wrinkle was on the horizon, I protested the event and asked people not to allow it to take place then. It’s not just poker that’s at stake, it’s ‘choice’ *freedom* that’s at stake. (more…)
