    Yes, see you there Paul.

    Anyone know where the SE got them poker chips from?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,922 ✭✭✭Dave


    I've no idea, but they're savage! Nicest chips of any casino I've played in.

    They are so good they must be from the planet krypton. I spend a lot of time just clinking them. They are like polished stones. They let the themselves down a little though with the actual playing cards. The first time i was there the cards were good, loads of food and drink but last time bad cards and empty bar, skimpy food.
    Surely they arent getting cheap on us?.
    I write this hoping a savvy S.E employee is reading!

    I want to hear some good news from you girls....at least one ITM finish.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,047 ✭✭✭Culchie


    Iona Paul on the final table anyway.

    I went out 10th.

    Met Deraco for first time, and I seen Corben Dallas there as well, but Iona is only boardster left I think...I'd fancy him to finish ITM.

    Interesting final table, lampchop wanted to get rid of his big stack as soon as possible and was going all in constantly and goading the rest of the table to call him. Never one to disappoint, I allowed him to re-raise me pre-flop while I held the ladies and he did the needful by doubling me up. One of the other players was obscenely aggressive, doubling shortstacks up and inflicting bad beats left, right and centre. He also did not seem to be aware of the concept of checking it down to see off a shortstack on the bubble.
    Anyhow, yes I finished ITM, went out in 4th after my all-in on the button holding K7o was called by the BB holding 87s, he hit an 8 on the flop, goodbye and goodnight. Relatively pleased with my play last night, finally starting a run of ITM finishes again!
    On a much sadder note, Candy was nowhere to be seen last night; as one of the dealers said, it wouldn't be right to let the punters know the nights she was working, then we'd all be there those nights and the rest would be empty! Truer words never spoken...

    ahhh, it all makes sense now ..... that was lambchop.

    Lambchop who went all-in on the middle pin straight draw. I wasn't calling him lambchop when I was taking elevator 101.

    Eh..... Lambchop is the nickname for a well known Social pages columnist(<sp?) for one of the Sunday papers? Gavin Lamb-Smythe or something? always seen in the VIP room in Bar Mizu?

    surely not same person?

    v nice tournie, +downstairs was packed later on.
    played ok, out when out 2 tables left, Shortstacked with AQos called by KJ, K on flop :( should went all preflop. AQos best hnd all night, highest pair 55's.

    Hi Corben, I knew you'd be still thinking about that hand :) , because it put you in deep trouble after the flop


    and this 'Lambchop' was definitely no socialite !
