Ohh man where to start, let's call this trip pretty damn sporty.
As far as action went the most fun money I put in action was staking Lil Jon against Dennis Orcullo playing even one pocket, hilarious, what a fun match.
I put James Roberts in vs Marc Vidal, Marc is too good. However James did come through and get the cash back against ATM Andy from Colorado.
I bet on Chip Compton when he played Chris Gentile some 11-ball banks. That game Gentile is a beast is all I can say.
I staked my boy Shuff against Mitch Ellerman, Mitch showed a lot of heart but Shuff got to free stroking and won the match.
Seemed like everytime I got drunk enough me and my partner Nicole ended up in high dollar one pocket action. One night we played Chip and this girl Jess some $400/gm and another night we played this guy Max and Ming Ng some $300/gm. Both were good times and we won the drinking contest for sure.
Got to see my buddy 1on1 play scotch with Bartram between Lil Jon for a decent score, get the cash 1on1 and Bart!
The poker players were out about everynight and Flakes and Nicky Schulman always made it interesting in there. Scott Frost and Billy make a hell of a team as well, those guys move good and play hard for their money, all respect for them.
I got to watch Donny Mills make about 16 games that he never played lol. Donny is still a pretty cool cat, he just ain't picking up that cue to play nobody.
If anyone was in doubt, Best Billiards was certainly the only place worth playing at. Good equipment, good food, and plenty of beverages. Plus the owner will hold the money in the safe to avoid all discrepancies. There was a ton more action but those were the main hitters.
As far as partying goes I have to say the Riv Bar was probably the go to destination for everyone. One certain night the cast of characters reached an all time high and we all had a good time with it.
Some of the funny things that happened were: Watchez and 1on1 woofing at Put_upor_shut_up, shit was classic. Everyone woofing about cash with knots pouring out their pockets.
JCIN can indeed drink quadruple Makers and Coke with no problem. Also JCIN is hell of a guy for the bar, one of the few that returns the favor when drinks are bought for him.
Jeremy Jones buying Mika a beer to bury the hatchet.
Speaking of Hatchets, that damn Dennis Hatch is about as fun loving as they come at the bar. He also don't hesitate to buy the rounds. He's a big hugger too lol, def one of the coolest people there. My favorite Hatch moment was with me, him and SVB and everyone was drinking. SVB tells Hatch theres no one else he'd rather have on the Mosconi Cup team than him. Dennis says to SVB that he would rob him if they played for $40k race to 200 ten ball. SVB laughs and immediately says "flip the coin." Was very funny, no they aren't playing.
Jason Kirkwood can still drink 100 beers and not slur a word or miss a ball lol.
GMAC is a pretty cool cat, finally met him, long time AZer. We had some good conversation he's dating a little above his pay grade right now with the lovely Jennifer Baretta but we won't hold it against him. I met them both and they were cool to spend some time with and laugh with. Apparently J-Bar is a whack nickname but not as bad as Jenny.
Also met Borana, she was a sweet heart and a talker. Enjoyed meeting her for sure.
Shout out to Lee Brett who sucks in Beer Pong and Phil Buford rocking the shit out of that hair cut. Old Jamison Neu is a trip too. What a ****ed up night that was right?
This could go on forever but I gotta cut it off at some point. I'll just say thanks to everyone for making this a great vacation for me at a time where I really needed to have a little fun and let loose for a while.
