Go out to bars, play video poker, because its everywhere.
That's a very social thing out here too.
Today, I had to work Valentine's day, which was one of the busiest days of the year. After I got done, I hit the gym for a few hours. I'm 40 years old, so I need to sober up a little before I go partying a gain...
...didn't know JJgold was in town. Probably would have made plans to go and see him. Guy is a legend on this forum. Would have loved to buy that guy a beer or two.
Every week, on Sunday nights, I've hosted $10 n/l hold'em torneys at my place with co-workers and friends that I have made. That's my poker fix...
...I've played the 2/4 limit games and made a little cash off that, but it bores me. Basically, what I do, or anybody can do is wait for "Captain Obvious" fishing for a straight or a flush, and max out the pot with 2 pair or 3 of a kind. Most I've ever come away positive was $200, and that was a long 2 1/2 hours with a bunch of jerks making comments how I was cheating, because stack looked huge with a bunch of $1 chips...
...but we are totally on different levels with poker. You know what you're doing on the strip/downtown. I'm a flea.
