Catastrophe

Postby iceman5 » Fri Apr 01, 2005 9:23 am

Im so exhausted right now that Im going to make this short. I just got home and need sleep. I cant even believe the events of last night.

The game went very well. The players were bad as advertised although I was pretty intimidated at first. Ive only played live a couple times and obviously never for this kind of money.

After about 5 hours my stack was up to about $32000 and I had not even rebought. I was ready to leave because i was very tired but even more than that I was getting nervous. The game was at a hotel and when I got there I noticed a couple guys in the lobby who looked like they didnt belong there. The gane was in nice hotel in a nice part of town and these guys were just sitting there looking around very suspiciously and i made eye contact with them and got a bad feeling.

When I got ready to leave, I called a friend who was working, to meet me in the parking lot and told him to follow me as I left. I had about $42000 in my pocket now.

This is where it went bad fast. I cant give details because of the investigation, but I can say that there was a robbery attempt in the parking lot.

I'll tell you the whole story at some point, but for now I can only say that there were 3 of them. I shot and killed one and my friend shot and killed one. Another one got away and Im 95% sure I hit him as well.

The shooting was perfectly legitimate but because of the circumstances surrounding it, Ive been put on administrative leave pending an IAD investigation.

I may be playing alot more poker in the future. Thats it for now. Im going to bed.

...i'm bleeding slowly now, so i'll make this short...cough, cough...
i was the 3rd guy you hit...we 3 were with the Mormon Tabernacle choir, that's why we looked strange, being out of place in the Lone Star state...
My story...We were just sitting in the lobby when some wild eyed looking guy came rushing through the lobby...funny thing, he had big bulges in his pockets, socks and shirt.
He looked very paranoid and in a hurry...we thought he needed help so followed him in the parking lot, and started to give him a pamphlet...all of a sudden he shouted something like " long live Doyle " and started shooting at us...it was a 1 out of 221 shot that got me, lucky b_sta_d! ... i hope i can get back to my bike and ride outta this state...cough, cough

Had me going too...

So this game never existed then - it was a setup all along - I was really looking forward to a report too!

I'm disappointed. I was expecting something much better out of you. The title alone gave it away. You gotta put more effort into it to make it seem believable.

Wow. I believed all of it. :oops: I think I have too many prejudices against USA - or I have just read Championship NL & PL hold'em too many times.
Now I understand how Wildbill could make fun something this serious.
It was a great story

OK, so I went a little over the top huh? I was going to say I lost all my money which wouldve been very easy to believe :lol: , but changed my mind. At least I fooled a couple people.

There was no game at all. It was all a set up.Happy April Fools day guys :lol:

Well, there is a game, but Im not playing in it. Too much risk. That story could actually happen very easily which wouldnt worry me so much if I didnt think Id get fired if I really did shoot some guy as Im coming out of an illegal poker game.
