Played poker at the Hard Rock in Tampa after the playoff game . Unreal !!!

WorldNumberOne · Jan 10, 2006

Myself and a small group of buddies went to the Bucs game on Sat.

We only live 2 hours away but decided to spend the night at the Hard Rock Casino.

Great bars and good music and plenty of leg hanging around..

The poker room has 10 man sit and go's. $ 100 + 20 for the house.

Me and one of my friends sat at the same table and finished 1 -2 .

The only way we dont cash is if we drop dead . Theeee worst card players i have ever seen . All willing to put up 120 bucks and piss it away.

Then my buddy got up at 8 am. and went down and won another one.

Easy money ....

5teamparlay was the dealer?

Online sit and go's used to be the same, but people eventually figured it out or stopped playing them. Not the same anymore, but I remember when Paradise first started having them years ago. You could sit out of the action until there were 5 or 6 players, bluff at a few pots and be in third place before you knew it. In that time I cashed in 15 straight, 7 of them placing first!

Who know how long the cash cow of poker in Florida lasts. At some point the games probably tighten up, but might be years.

was a pretty big rake.

120 to play .

pay 3 places

450
300
200

they take the other 50 for a high hand jackpot i guess ..

we had guys calling huge bets with 3rd pair .. i just sat back and laughed my ass off...

The MGM in Vegas is worse.....$125 with $15 going to the house & $10 to the dealers.

So after the dealers split the $390 for 3 hours work, they still beg you to give them a big tip when you win the thing. Geezzzzzzz
