I should have stayed in bed today – literallyby Barry Shulman | Published: Jun 04, '10 |
After all I have a cold. However it is WSOP time and I dragged myself down to The Rio.
Tonight I played the $1,500 limit hold’em event. I forgot how much torture you can get when you run bad at limit. At least in no limit they take you down all at once.
I had one guy probably beat me in 12 hands and only twice did he have a better start and/or flop.
Then there was the fat ugly guy at the table who proclaimed that he insists his women don’t weigh more than 120 pounds. As I was getting crushed I wondered what does he bring to the equation?
Then there was the guy who wanted to know if I remembered playing two seats from him during a tournament in 2005.
Then there was the guy (whom I know) at the next table complaining loudly for 30 minutes that the NCAA Women’s Softball was on the TV monitor.
I guess I just wasn’t in the mood.
Finally on the way up the elevator a brute of a guy loudly proclaimed how amazing it was that he had a taxi driver who remembered him from seven months ago when he brought him here from the Clark County Detention Center.
Hopefully tomorrow will be better.
