Update on the Des Moines pool scene

Google Shanelle Lorainne!


yes, its a rainy day which means its a "rain day" for me which means No Work for me!


As for all of you knuckleheads planning on going to vegas for the get rich quick scheme, why not buy 100 or 500 powerball tickets all w/ different numbers. ITS AT $222 MIIIIIILLLLLLLIIIIIIIOOOOONNNNN DOLLARS!!!!!

So if you have someone that is going to back or stake you out there, you would turn it down and tell them to spend the money on powerball instead?? I highly doubt it. Why not play once to say that at least you got to experience it?

If you can get someone to back/stake you, then go!!!

If I had the time to take off work, I would definately go myself. But beings that it is right in the middle of our work season, I doubt I will ever go. What I might do is go to one of the circuit events that happens around here like at Binions in Omaha. And if a miracle happened and I won a ticket to the main event, then I would have to have a "sit down" w/ my boss!
 
I've played before, a few years ago when they had 1k buy in events on top of the satellites they always have going. It's nothing like a main event you see on TV where the room is full. The event I played in only had about 40 tables to start with and around 340-350 people entered in. There were two other events going on in the Horseshoe at the time. The month before I won a free roll promotional tournament at the Borgata in AC during Spring Break.

Thats ok, I would prefer my first event to be a low end 3 day that has that many people in it. Still 400K in the pot at 10 a table $1K buy in. I guess I should make up my mind and talk to my backer to see if it is something we both want to do lol.
 
The thread has officially gone to hell...nothing left to talk about I guess. Someone wake me up when there's a good match up goin down please!
 
I think the Gene Wilder movie was Willy Wonka and The Chocolate Factory. They may have changed the name of the Depp remake (?). :thumbup:

Good call. Charlie was just the name of the little shit with the bad haircut that acts like a sissy all movie long and ends up winning. :). Frost let me know if you are seriously going next month to Vegas and I will see what my backer says.

You are correct sir. Charlie and the Chocolate Factory is the name of the Depp remake which sucked compared to the origional!!! Charlie and the Great Glass Elevator was a sequal to Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory.

Now the history of WW and CF has been complete. GOOD DAY SIR!!!

End of July -- Frost vs SVB. Do you want a call, alarm or you have one of them 'internal clocks'. :o

Man that very well could be the next time I step foot in that pool room, unless I get a major urge to randomly play a tourney. I'm kinda enjoying the break. Gonna take a guy all my cues to get them back nice and pretty in the next week. Stix on Saturday is about all i need to stay satisfied
 
No one is playing, theres really nothing to even get interested to see. I'm looking forward to this golf tourney this weekend...thats about it.

Where is your tournament at this weekend? If you really want to have some fun, you can come down and run the Damn to Damn race with me.....? :thud:
