It's a grand bright evening! (Tales of Poker related degeneracy)

Jesus Wept

I just walked outside at 9am with the purpose of getting some Milk from Spar, and I said to myself:

'It's a grand bright evening!'


....then I realised the error of my ways. (I've being awake since ...err... yesterday) :D


So share your stories of poker related degeneracy here, I am sure they far outshine mine.

on one occassion I was playing in the SE till 6am and was planning on going straight to work with finishing up early.
Instead I decided to go home to bed and call in sick instead. I get home and end up playing online till 10pm. the only food i had all day was loaf of bread easi singles and a 6 pack of taytos. and coke to wash it down with.

Are you bored of the Cuckoo's Nest!?

I've had quite a few tales of degeneracy but i remember a particular 36 hour poker session between myself, Ianmc, Halfbaked and Alan.

Began with the usual slog in the SE til 6am, then onto the jackpot til 12, over to the Fitz for a dealers choice cash game, stayed there and played the tournie that night, and then headed back to the SE until 6am.

I was a bit worse for wear after that one!

Never, my post was based on a true story.

Scummyscousers

1997
I snorted something white and powdery off the back of the 7 of diamonds in Athlantic City during 48 hours boozing. I bought a cheap guitar and made 100 dollars busking on the boardwalk until I was told to move along. I then put it all on NINE RED VERY LOUDLY in Trumps. Lost and went back to the bar and reenacted the script of 'the Scent of a woman' line for line for the rest of the night/day. Whooohaaa. During which I incurred some short term hearing damage . Hmm sorry I can't fit hookers or poker into this so it's not really degenarate, but it is true. (could have been the 7 of hearts though)

Scummy scousers story reminds me of this incident in nevada:


We were somewhere around Barstow, on the edge of the desert, when the drugs began to take hold. I remember saying something like: "I feel a bit lightheaded. Maybe you should drive"
Suddenly, there was a terrible roar all around us, and the sky was full with what looked like huge bats, all swooping and screeching and diving around the car, and a voice was screaming: "Holy Jesus. What are these goddamn animals?"

I once started playing a tournament in a PUB. I drank a whole pint of BEER. I got knocked out on the final table and by the time I got home it was nearly one o'clock IN THE MORNING.

I am very old.

I was asleep in the hotel room in Vegas one night, im woken up by one of my mates arriving in pissed with two unreal looking girls about 21 or 22 years old. Next thing he disappears into the bathroom with one of them and the other one just sits on the bed and starts talking to me.
She asks me do i want to have some fun etc, next thing i hear the other girl in the bathroom shouting at my mate, "im a thousand dollar a night girl, no way your gonna f*ck me for $300 bucks". Then he comes out and asks me for a lend of money, i tell him to piss off, then he says hes going down the hall to the lads staying in the other room to get money off them, then he starts laughing opens the door and legs it down the hall, i realise hes not coming back.
So im stuck in my hotel room half asleep with two hookers who are demanding money and are not too happy even though it was nothing to do with me, it was quality, highlight of the trip
