i want to thank all the guys for their support at the factor of fear bash. plus, i want to thank marty, the moderators, and the golden nugget, for everything that they did to make our bash such a success. you have no idea what was going through my mind while i was playing that hand. the first card i looked at was the ace. i could feel my heart beating so fast. then i looked at the duce and said "oh shit". i took the hit and got a 6. i had no choice but to stay. when the dealer turned over his cards, and showed a 10, i just kept concentrating on his next hit card. i kept saying over and over " be a 7 or 8". when he turned over that 7, i coudn't believe it. i was completely exhausted. i grabbed the table and i could feel the table shake and i almost turned it over because i was so excited. my woman and i don't drink that much, but we were pounding the drinks down that night. we danced all night and i'm still in pain. i already drank 2 bottle of pepto-bismol. if fact, my woman left her shoes on the dance floor. thanks again for all your support and i can't wait to see you guys next year.

It wouldn't have surprised me if the legs had busted off the table from the vibration.....I think the floor, walls and ceiling were all vibrating out of control when the crowd exploded.

Congrats!!!!!!!! :money8:

GIJoe,

I am honestly so happy that you won that hand. I am so pissed that I ended up sleeping through the hand, but loved the fact that you won it. Could not have happened to a nicer guy. It was truly a pleasure meeting you and your girlfriend, as well as the rest of the crew you were with. I enjoyed the great talk that first day on Friday about betting baseball. Once again congrats on the winnings and it was a pleasure meeting you and the Mrs.

GIJoe, seriously-you did look like you were either about to faint. I think you just froze, and it almost looked like you were about to go face down on the table during the hand.

BREATHE my friend, BREATHE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

(I would have been the same way. Hell, I was just about as nervous rooting for you!!)

Congrats GI Joe, I am happy for your win, and really would like to meet you folks. Last year was a family reunion that got in the way(well worth missing the Bash for), this year unforeseen business..I will be at the next Bash!

Yep Vik....that was my "oh fuck, oh fuck....you gotta win this" pose.

For the record, I think I got bumped from behind while taking a swig. I should have known better in that room full of pandamonium.

:lolBIG:...i saw FISH was behind you...i think he pushed a few people over on the weekend. First his girl shows up with a purple ankle and ice bag from tripping on the curb. Then he just happened to be next to me when I fell over the chair after dinner. And he's behind you when you "spill" $30 worth of Dom on your shirt. He was probably next to KERMIT last year when he tumbled down the escalators!

I see the pic you are talking about now....that was his big (and final) hit.

(Where he's pumping his fist and still breathing)
