Doom Switch Avoided!

Since I posted last, I played 5 sessions. 8/16 in which I lost $98, a 20/40 session which midpoint I was up about $1ooo, but then ended up losing $300 instead. This was an interesting game, because two visitors from Chicago, who I have nick named twiddle dee and twiddle dumb were in the game. They have played at Oceans before, and I remember one of them, and apparently they have been playing every night this last week. They have taken to be the unpaid prop players this last week at Oceans.

Then I played 40/80 on Thursday night, and one of the players got very drunk after like 6 apple martinis. I ended up booking a 2 dime win in this game. Then I played the 20/40 on Friday and Saturday night.

Friday night, twiddle dee and twiddle dum were playing the 8/16 for some reason, and I skipped the 40/80 when my name was called, since I was tired. I booked a 750 win, and the game broke pretty early like 1:30am or so, and I didn't want to play the 40/80 so I went home.

Then on Saturday I had dinner with my wife at a nice restaurant in La Jolla. We've been there before, and we usually like their food, but this time it wasn't so good. We let the server know that we didn't think our appetizers were particularly good, and we ate very little of it. The manager stopped by and bought our alcohol for us, so that was nice. The entrees were just acceptable, nothing spectacular. Dessert was good. After that we did some grocery shopping and then headed home to relieve the baby-sitter. I know, we're boring, but my wife said she was tired and just wanted to sleep.

So I headed out to Oceans, and the 40/80 had already broken by the time I got there. I was first up for the 20/40, but I ended up waiting like 45 minutes or so before I got a seat. Twiddle dee and twiddle dumb were in the game, along with two other spectacular fish. It was simply one of the best, most awesome games I have ever been in. I won 3300 in a little over 3 hours. I would have stayed past 2:30 am, but I was tired and it was foggy out and I knew that if stayed too much longer, I wouldn't be able to safely drive home, so I racked up my 9 racks. I got my buddy to laugh at me, since I literally went and got one of those rolling trays used to hold drinks and laid my racks on the tray filled them up, and wheeled my rolling tray of racks of redbirds to the cage. I suppose I should have taken a picture. I busted twiddle dee and twiddle dumb as well. Not sure, how long they are in town for, nor how long their bankrolls will last. I don't think I will get out much this week, but we'll see.
