... I've caught a cold the decks were so damn cold in the Vic!
BT and I were looking across the table for literally hours, with neither of us getting a bloody hand. It was ridiculous. Not to mention a little frenchman who was raising eight times the big blind almost every other hand, the little muppet.
It's a night of poker I'd like to forget so this post will be short. I had five monster hands all night - four of them turned into split pots and in one, I had the nut flush only to be beaten by a straight flush! Unbefuckinlievable!
BT's luck was not much better but I'll let him post his own tale of woe and misfortune.
It was cool to see Barney Boatman and Neil 'Bad Beat' Channing in person but that was slightly second best to the people we met earlier that day for work, namely Kevin Spacey, Gwyneth Paltrow, Damien Lewis, The Prince of Wales, the hot chick from the new St Trinians movie and the cool black guy from Heroes... ah, work is tough!
The poker highlight for me was playing hours of dealer's choice with BT on the train - we played Omaha, Razz, Seven Card Stud, Pineapple, Five Card Draw, and weird variations of all of those mentioned with Jacks wild! We even played a mental version of Chinese Poker where we were betting chips on each hand with winner takes all.
Anwyay to wrap up the Vic trip, it became clear that the frenchman and at least four of the other players were working together, little bastards. We were never going to beat that table, I just wish we'd clocked it earlier!
