If you live anywhere other than Vegas there wasn't much to do on the Wednesday after the All Star Game. But this is Vegas Baby! So RJ and I head done to the strip after Work. The plan was to play poker for about 3 hours then a Dinner Meeting with a friend that was in town. RJ and I end up on the same table. We have played about 90 minutes nothing eventful for either one of us until the hand that unleashed the RJ comedy show. This guy makes it $25 preflop and it folds around to RJ who calls. Now let me say that this guy had been very aggressive making a lot of raises and continuation bets after the flop. The flop comes Jack 8 4. The Guy fires $75 looking to take it down right there RJ thinks about it for a while then calls. The Turn is a 3 hardly a card to scare anyone in this hand. The Guy fires 2 or 250 and RJ goes into the tank for like 2 minutes and then announces ALL IN. At this point the guy is Pot committed and has to call. The guy turns up Pocket 9's and RJ turns up 34 for two pair. The river is a blank and RJ Wins the Pot for like a Grand and the fireworks begin.The guy starts on RJ for his bad play as the guy was doing his best imitation of Phil Helmuth telling a player how bad he is. RJ just smiles as he's stacking his chips. I whisper to RJ you'll have to show me what book and chapter that poker move was from. Calling $75 with bottom pair!! Well the guy wouldn't stop as he proceeds to call RJ a donkey then RJ says " I could drink 10 beers and play and still be a better player than you.'" The guy is going nuts so then RJ adds this classic " If you left now I would cash out your the only reason I'm here your the worst the player at the table." The guy goes off even more then RJ fires his last one liner telling the guy that they have ATM's all thru the casino so why doesn't he go get some more money as your stack looks pretty low and is almost not worth my time to stick around for. I'm laughing my ass off as is most of the table. Finally we get back to action this guy still on tilt and I have a monster hand winning a $1300 Pot nothing exciting had the best hand from the word go and they just kept calling me. I guess I'm like Smith Barney as I do it the old fashioned way winning with the best hand just call me old fashioned. RJ's new buddy goes out of his way to compliment my play and throws another jab at RJ by saying to me Very Nice Play why don't you teach your buddy how to play. Well it was time for dinner RJ's buddy had long been gone losing all his chips. As we got up RJ and I had most of the chips on the table. RJ $1250 and I had $1350.By the way if you ever get a chance to eat at Fiamma in the MGM do so as this place is fabulous. The three of us had this 9 course meal that was unbelievable I'm still stuffed.So that's how you spend the Wednesday after the All Star Game Vegas style!
