Vegas - Ballys - 6/20 thru 6/24
 
To my fellow DT friends,

Scav and friends will be arriving in Vegas at 10:30pm on Wednesday and not leaving until Sunday or Monday (depending on how things go).

While I am time committed to winning the poker tourney I am getting into (WSOP Event #35, $1500 NL Holdem), if I get knocked out early, I would gladly like to party with some DTers. I should be firmly planted in either the Ballys or Paris sportsbook unless the tourney goes well, which would mean the final table is on Saturday (2pm is start time, and when I make the final table, the SALAMM jersey will be busted out for TV coverage).

Anyone else going to be out there, if so, respond or PM me by Wednesday Noon.

HOLLA!!

Scav

If I get to the final table I am going to be calling Byk to fed-ex overnight me a hat, I have to put tape over the .com though, I guess they can't have that....

timmgirvan 06-18-2007 07:55 PM

Best of Luck to you,Scav!....and hopefully we'll be able to see your mug on the replays!:D

Scav 06-18-2007 09:07 PM

The tourney is able to purchase online for like $50 on worldseriesofpoker.com.....

If I get to the final table, I am going to purchase it and let all my friends watch it, including all of DT

timmgirvan 06-18-2007 09:26 PM

I am actually extremely concerned about dropping a F-bomb or something. I have heard from some people that the dealers have been instructed to take no ****, and ANY F-BOMB, or something similiar gets a 10 minutes.....From the people that have spoken to me, I tend to swear, alot, like every four words....

True story...saw it on some of the tourneys....you will get a timeout!

GPK 06-21-2007 08:52 PM

my boy just called me...got knocked out of the hold em tourney...a bit upset and dissapointed, but..

He's having a blast anyways...it is Vegas and he is Scav's. He should be over that loss in 10 minutes or so. Or at least until the next decent looking "working woman" starts talking to him.

He says hello to all...

hoovesupsideyourhead 06-21-2007 09:38 PM

he best save 500 for toga..

Scav 06-25-2007 02:37 AM

Did I miss the Vegas rundown by Scavs? I guess it is pretty sad when this is what I have to look forward to while at work!!!

No, I have been too tired to do it, I started it and with everything that went down, it took me an hour just to write up the first 24 hours. Might work on it a little more today....

Scav 06-27-2007 10:08 AM

Instead of doing a timeline, I am going to sum it up in two pictures and one statement.

Besides the fun above, I also had the opportunity to meet Stanley Bavlish(winner of the DRF/NTRA Handicapping Championship). He was just sitting in the Bally's Sportsbook and I recognized the stash, went up to him, and straight chilled with him for like an hour and bs'ed. He did cost me about 3k when a Roussel horse went off at 4/1 at Arlington and won, and I was putting 500 WP on horses like crazy on Sunday and would have done that also. He was absolutely hilarious, dropping f bombs like crazy and talking about strippers.

is that kendra?

No, some chick that works at the Playboy Club, notice Scav's hand on the right hand side...

declansharbor 06-27-2007 11:26 AM

It looks as if you had a blast. Not that you can experience anything other than a blast while in Vegas... How did you fare in your poker venture?

I lasted 7 hours....Here is the kicker. I sit down at my table and start playing, there were two open seats. NONE OTHER THEN YOUNG ****ING PHAN was one of them. My heart ended up at my ankles. I took a pot off him though so that was awesome. I also knocked out Steve Meyung(?). At the time I didn't know he was a pro and once he got knocked out, I walked over to my friends and they were like "You realize you just knocked out a pro"

All in all, it was a great experience, I was playing on 45 minutes of sleep though, not the smartest thing in the world.

I got my TT cracked by JJ which is what cost me, I was stacked up for a while and that hand really f'd me

Sounds awesome. I don't know what I would do if I were to be seated next to a pro. Had to be a very surreal feeling for ya. Great story, hopefully next year you can cash at one of these events. My ultimate goal is to make it out there by 2010, with enough loot to enter two events. ALL IN..lol Again, awesome stuff.

The first pic looks like you are on a couch in the back of a red pick up truck.

Is that a Shirley Temple in the second pic?

I checked raise Phan for the hell of it with Rags and he folded, after I dragged the hand I say "I can tell the world I took a hand off of Young Phan"

Everyone laughed and he had this look like I am going to smoke you.....

declansharbor 06-27-2007 12:38 PM

How dare you take advantage of Phan's air-tight play?? :D
At first I thought you were talking about Kido Phan or Pham? He fires away. My style of play.
