Day 4 - Chapter 2 of An Angry Man, a Drunk, a Blonde, and a Cheater…

Day 4 - Chapter 2 – The Whole Story and The Storm

After a while Scott and Mookie went to bed – about 2AM. Henry came by and told me to kick ass on the drunk. The drunk had gotten his $150 stack by sucking out on Henry. Little did Mook, Scott, or I know the Drunk and Henry had exchanged words. The drunk told Henry – “I’ll go down on you later.”

The next morning I found out more:

The drunk was very rude to Mrs. Mook saying he wanted to put his arm around her and rub stuff (stuff I won’t say here). She told him, "If you touch me you will pull back a stump!!!" I love it! She showed a super nice lady can handle her own in a Vegas poker room. Good thin Mookie was unaware or we would have been down in the county lock-up, using our Poker funds to get him out.

Chad was an overly aggressive player who would flamboyantly raise many hands from any position. In one hand Chad was BB and Clara raised, Chad protested and Stacey told him he got some of his own medicine. Chad told her he used to think she was HOT until she made that comment. She replied – “I guess I'm still HOT then because a comment can't change what I look like?” That’s my girl!!!

Anyhow – now you see why this guy was moved. I didn’t know the whole of it, but I wanted this guy’s money. And this guy did not know I was friends with the aAustin crew until Henry came by later. My strategy was to wait for a good hand and kick his ass. I watched the cards he would play and raise $25 or go all in. He would do so on any Ace or pair before the flop or after hitting any pair on the flop (bottom, middle, it didn’t matter). I took a nice pot off him for about $80 with a flopped straight. I also took a nice pot off him by bluffing. I also took some pots off the Suit. Then a lot of shit went down…

The angry guy (AG) took seat 8 (Mookie’s seat), also two other players took Scott’s seat and the 22-all-in guys seat. One was a tall guy, the other a real good player I had lost a big pot ($85) to when I had top pair and he went all in with 2nd pair and tripped up. I was a little intimidated by this guy and didn’t want to lose my stack to him because I then wouldn’t be able to take Chad’s stack. I avoided hands with him unless I had a strong hand (no big raise calls on a draw even with pot odds). I extended the concept of pot odds beyond the current pot and into future pots I might have against Chad.

At one point Chad touched the AG's arm and AG really freaked out! He told Chad if he touched him again, he wouldn’t get up off the floor, but Chad kept on and on with comments – like “Oh, I like it on the floor”. He was raising almost every pot to $25. He was picking up blinds and limps after blinds and limps. The tall guy got a huge pot off Chad, but Chad reloaded and added on after the first post. After losing about $150, hee told the tall guy "he was a tall, delicious glass of water”. After this the two of them left, so AG moved to seat 2 – far away from Chad. Chad was clearly putting him on huge tilt.

We had a Luxor dealer named Kate join us. When she dealt to our table earlier, Chad told her he loved her, etc. She told Chad he only loved Jack Daniels and other guys! It was clear she joined our table to lighten Chad’s pockets.

OK, so here we have yet another situation. AG and Kate get in an all-in situation and I see her pull a $1 chip from under the table. I protested to our dealer, but he said he didn’t see it. I asked the other players and AG and EU both said they saw it. I was really pissed at this – first off all to do this (even for a $1 chip), but a dealer?!? – and from the same casino? What next, $5 chips? Cards? – she has access, right?

Also – when she was under pressure to call she showed her cards to the Suit and Chad. At this I called the floorman and protested. She got pissed and said I should mind my business when I was not in a hand. I explained that technically – I am in every hand at the table. I raised a big stink and she moved to table 3. This kind of sucked because now we only had 5 players. EU told me he thought the game would break up and we wouldn’t get Chad’s $, but I told him now they would move to 2 blinds and he calmed down. I also told him she was pulling blinds out of her fanny pack so she would have as many chips as possible when she fired at Chad. She hadn’t played a single hand in about 45 minutes. He gave me a look like, “This guy has got this scoped out.” We went on, I was now in a perfect a position I had a drunk, three tight predictable players, and AG on massive tilt.

The Suit was concerned about his safety and moved to table 3. AG and Chad kept on fighting back and forth. Finally, I caught QQ and took AG out for ~$75. He shook my hand and left warning Chad not to leave the Luxor. He and Chad were really getting into it, threats etc. I was surprised the Luxor didn’t call security. They broke our table down and KWTH, EU, Chad and I moved to table 3 with the Cheater and the Suit + 3 others. I lost a little back and my stack was about $325.

Stay tuned for Chapter 3... Enter the Blonde
