The Old Man talked to Illini last night . . . . . . he's alive, that much I know.

"We fight on until the last bullet, SAVE ONE."

I was feeling painfully down last night. "Leaving Las Vegas" Nicholas Cage thoughts were going through my mind. Poker has just sucked the big one lately. My last session, I got cleaned out of $300 by a table full of rich, gambling junkie Asians, who would re-raise my raise with queens with their J-7 offsuit and then flop 3 sevens. What can you do when that happens? The only thing you can do is keep playing with an advantage and let the odds catch up. But when you have no job, and you have to make money playing to survive, you get worried. You know that you have to keep playing, but you think, "I just played for 10 fucking hours against dead money and I lost $300. Fuck this shit!" So basically, I was feeling like I wanted to go buy a bottle of Jack and then sleep for 12 hours. But then I got a message from Green Doberman, wanting me to call him. Turns out he has a job available, and it looks like I will get it. Feel much better now. Job doesn't pay much, but will take the pressure off and let me just play as much or as little poker as I want. I also will get to go to their dealer school for free to learn any or all of the games. Needless to say, I feel like a million bucks compared to last night. Thanks to Green Doberman. Many beers will be on me when he gets off the wagon.

Hang in there man, your luck at the tables will change. And at least you're getting a job now, so it'll be a lot less stressful. Hang in there, you'll be fine. And by next time I come out to Vegas, I'll expect you to take me to a better strip club than that garbage we were at last time...or we'll go back to the last place and you can deck that one stripper, get your revenge. Good luck.

You need to get your ass out here and try your hand at stand-up. Everything you say is hilarious, especially when you make fun of yourself. I'm serious, you have a gift, bro.

Very good news Illini !

There is no shame in any honest job bro. I think you're on the right track now. I'm looking forward to meeting you.

BEST OF LUCK !

Glad to hear some good news bro. Being employed is always a good thing. I was starting to worry about you losing all your cash and then what??? Jobbyjobs rule. I know you will work hard. Hope the poker dealing turns out for you. Gimme a call sometime.

That is sad man. Don't say things like that. Green Dobe rules for helping a homie out, and BTW good luck to you GD with that, but it almost sounds like you want him to get off the wagon. That does not sound like you.

Love you bro later

I talked to him today, and he is going through a 100 day alcohol-free period. And he said he has committed to responsible drinking after that. No worries.

Gambling is very unpredictable. I'm hitting near 70% just flipping a coin vs NFL. Check the tracker. Nothing will fuk with your head more. Ten years of living in Vegas so I saw a lot there. Shoulda, coulda, wouda thoughts will drive you crazy. Its a marathon and not a sprint.

You do need something to take the pressure of having to win. Keep your head up sir......For something completely different have that Hawaiin soup at snack bar at Cali Club downtown. Full of Hawaiians. Have you taken at trip to Mt Charleston yet? With snow on it, very pretty.
