How To Be A Winner And A Loser At The Same Time
Wednesday, January 02, 2008
I'm back from Bad Bloods 4th Annual New Years Day Tournament. I had a great time in the game, but I ultimately came up short. I think there were 23 runners and - though I made the final table - I finished 7th with 4 payouts. I'm pretty sure they ended up paying 5 to help out the bubble boy, so I was pretty close to the money.In the end I lost a race to Falstaff for a +20k pot that, had I won, would have put me in pretty good shape to make the money and push for a win. Instead I hit the rail, but like I said, I had a great time the whole day.
As I mentioned in my previous post, if I won the Moustache-Off '07, I would keep the stache an extra day and try and bring my winning ways to the tournament.
Well I won the Moustache-Off '07 biatches! It was a close competition, but in the end I took it down. So of course I kept the stache for one more day and busted it out at the tournament. At the tournament, for those that knew me and read my blog, there was no explanation. However, for those that didn't know me, it was a tad embaressing strolling up to Bloods house with this thing attached to my face. I quickly decided to get over it and just have a good time. That ended up being the theme of the day.
As for the title of this post...
Winner ~ Moustache-Off '07
Loser ~ Just look at the picture people...that Person Of Interest pretty much sums it up. Oh and I also drove the farthest to the tournament yesterday only to miss the money by a couple of spots. That's sort of loserish.
One of my favorite parts of the day was when, after I put on my my glasses and hat, Otis looked at me and said, "Man you really do look like a Person Of Interest." That and when G-Rob broke out his iPod and started jamming to Sabotage by the Beastie Boys in my honor. That was good stuff.
Now I'm off to the bathroom for a much needed buzz and shave. I promise, no more posts about the stache or POI's for at least a year.
Until next time, may the felt be with you .

Actually, I think the 'stash and glasses make you look like a cop from Reno 911. :) Otherwise, it looks good. Really. (snicker)
Good seeing you yesterday. Hope to see you at a CLT table soon. -

I sure hope those shades are your costume pair and not what you wear on a regular basis. Are those things one of the tint-when-it's-too-bright variety? My God they're horrendous!
On the bright side, that shirt is bithcin'. -

A disturbed cop on a power trip, seeking revenge on the guys who made fun of him in junior high for still bringing his CHiPS lunchbox to school...
All you need is a Farrah Fawcett poster in the background...
Congrats! -
