Here we go, part two. This may take a while, as I need to remember a bunch of stuff.Ok, well I see my last update was when I was drunk after owning black jack and drinking cap'n cokes the rest of the night...I'll take over from Friday Afternoon.25th -- we decide to go to the Borgata before Chappelle and get in some poker. Wow, what a place. It was so huge, I couldn't believe it...I guess when I finally get to vegas I'll be even more surprised. Anyways, we walk thru the casino for what seems to be 20 minutes before arriving at the poker room. Also very impressive. Really big and bright. High ceililngs...justreally nice.The tables were also nice and clean...and good chips..although they were a bit "sticky" -- i think they had a magnet or something in them. Anyways...I finally get a seat in a 2/5 nl game and buy in for $500. I was debating playing $1k nl, but decided I didn't wanna be pissy if I lost a big pot and had to go to the ATM. $500 it was.My table was decent. There were a few tourney players (well they had been playing a tourney earlier) sitting across from me at the table, they seemed decent..one guy seemed to make good reads, but I couldn't really judge if he was just really tight and liked making big lay downs...regardless, we'll call him "good player".On his left was "sunglasses". I think he was the only guy wearing sunglasses, so that'll be his name. On the right of both of them was "old man". He didn't shut up and always seemed to have an Ace in his hand. On my direct right was this fat middle aged man, who no joke cursed everytime someone raised or bet. Except when I did, cause I was next to him...and I was raising a lot so I'm sure he was pissy. Iguess we'll call him "fat angry guy"On my left was a guy drinking a lot of Corona's, just seeming to have fun...he was the "tourist". On his left was "pill popper". 30s, somehow started talking about pills. Idk, weird.And on his left, two to my left, was "asian dude"...but not your stereotypical asian gambler/poker player. He played really solid good poker, not crazy aggressive.Onto some hands...if i can remember...I jumped around from +100 to -100 early...the table was pretty tight and decently respectful of raises...so after about 1 hour or so I started taking advantage and playing position more...whenever the "fat angry guy" would limp, I'd raise with xx and c-bet a flop that usually was 3 way and take it down. This went on way too much and I felt like I was going to get caught, so after I won a few pots in a row I quieted down again and waited for a few better hands....I'm skipping a lot of chit, but basically the "fat angry guy" would honest to God, curse under his breath after every pot he lost. It was so funny. Someone would just bet and he'd fold and he'd be like "damn him, that mfer"...I'd just be sitting there like "dammmmmn" what is up dude? lol.He finally gets busted by "asian dude". "fat angry guy" flopped top set and CRAI, "asian dude" called with AA and turned the A. Sick. I was expecting fat angry guy to go nuts...but he kinda just sulked and walked away. I hope he didn't kill himself.After he busted a few others left and the table got short handed, which I love, and I really built a decent stack. One hand I raised 5d 6d after a limper to $25 ($20 was my standard, $25 to $30 if someone limped), I got called by "pill popper" who had the button and the sb. The flop came J6x with one diamond. we both checked to pill and he bet out $40...I wanted to see what the asian dude would do before I decided, and he mucked...so I decided to call. I was about 100% i was behind here, but whatever...I was planning to bluff this hand if something came on the turn../riv...but it's hard to bluff OOP and just not really smart...Anyways the turn was a Q which I hoped he didn't like..I decided to check, he checked...that's good...I made up my mind I'd be betting the river and hopefully he'll just go away...river was nothing and I bet $120..now up to this point I hadn't shown any hands...and ppl thought I was just playing solid..when in actuality I was the only one playing aggressive and just taking down most pots on the flop...well this guy ended up folding a Jack and I show just the 6. I did this just to loosen up the table and get more action going.....i raised a few pots in a row and finally had to show a Q6s I riased to $30 on the button after a few limpers...this seemed to help some.I haven't mentioned "old man" much..but he came to the table drinking wine, which was awesome. He takled a lot in hands and made the dtable a bit more fun...however, this one dealer came to the table and absolutely hated him. It was really weird. Normally I'd side with the dealer cause a lot of guys are jerks, but he was just being who he is I assume and trying to have a good time with everyone. She was really just a bi0tch about stupid chit...it was really weird...but regardless, the "old man" played decent poker...and showed down a lot of good hands, and weird hands. For some reason he kept talking to me about how he is "avoiding" me cause i'm the "tough one" at the table...I'm not saying that to toot my own horn...and I'm really not sure why he said that to me, I was just playing how I usually play..but I did use that info against him later...before I get to that hand I'll get to a hand I played with the "good player".He was good, but not great..the big hand we played together went down like this. he limped in early position and two others limped to me. I decided to limp 55 on the button instead of raising this time and take a flop.The flop came K54r, it checked to me...I bet this flop about 99% of the time when I'm closing the action...however, this table was so weirdly passive that a lot of flops were checked around, and or c/folded on the flop to one bet. With this in mind I decided to check myself in hopes that someone caught up (besides the str8, 67 was only hand I would be "scared" of here).Anyway,s the turn came a K, great card for me...although I didn't think anyone had a King basied on flop action. Once again checked to me, and I'm like blah...i'm not gonna get any action on this and and I bet out $15 or $20. Folds to the "good player" and he raiess me like $25 more or something silly. Folds back to me and I start debating what to do. I really didn't think he had the K. I thought he most likely had limped a middle or small pair and thought I was full of chit cause I'd shown so many bad hands....and a few bluffs.With that in mind I opted to just call and hopefully get a lead outta him on the river. the river came a blank, but it did bring backdoor hearts. He checked, I bet $150 and he called. He mucked and said "nh" but when I was leaving he actually told me he had AK that hand and I really had a hard time believing it. First off, not raising PF, bad, not betting the flop, bad...the turn was fine I s'pose...but I think in the long run, against a player like myself, not leading the river is just silly. But whatever, he had also layed down KK preflop...so maybe he just was the "monsters under the bed" type...eitherway...he did seem to play decent...I hope he does well for himself.nowwwwwwwwwwww, all the way back to that hand between angry fat guy and asian dude. After that hand as I said we went short handed for a while...finally two new guys sit. One guy who wore full tilt gear and sunglasses, and this one kid who seemed to be friends with the "good player". We'll call him the new "sunglasses".But the highlight of probably the entire trip was this...on my direct right, where fat angry dude was sitting, sits this amazing asian chick. I don't have "poker goggles" (similar to beer goggles) when I'm playing poker. She was seriously drop dead gorgeous...and I already have a thing for asian chicks...so you know. As it turns out, she was a damn good poker player. Better than the other guys at the table. She played a good aggressive game and it was just...well. hot. LOL. I def. didn't expect it...we talked al ittle bit...but she seemed annoyed with some of the other guys that were treating her 'different' cause she was a girl and attractive. I tried to respect her just as a player and treat her no different...although it was hard to ignore her beauty.Anyways, we talked a little off and on, but that was that...Some of the last few hands I played with the table that I can recall..OK, "old man" had been playing a decent amount of hands, but I felt like I had his betting patterns down...so after one limped and he raised to just $15, i called in pos wtih 9c 4c. As did the limper, who was the "good player".The flop came Ad 4d xd...checked to old man who bet out $20. I called, not wanting to commit too much in case the good player decided to raise, and to my happiness he folded and we were HU. the turn was a blank, no a diamond, nor a scare card..something like a 6..anyways, old man checked to me and I cut out $40...and if you remember what he had said to me, and about me earlier...about avoiding me and all that...well, that's why I tried to pick up this little pot...and it worked (phew - i know im a donk) he folded QQ and I showed my 4c. The good player and new sunglasses guy decided i had 44 or A4...heheNext hand I played was against "sunglasses". I had Ks Tx and raised to $25 after one limper, "SG" called me on the button and we flopped HU Ts 7s 5s came and I checked...he bet out $40, I asked him how much he had and he counted it out...had around $270-$300 left. I was sitting on $800 at the time and decided it would be fun to put him all in and watch his reaction. So I said "all in" and he squirmed a bit...which I loveeeeeeeee about live poker. lol.he debated and debated ...and debated...and then finally folded saying "this is probably a bad fold, but whatever". Turns out he folded 75. owwowowowo. Good times.The hot asian chick said "good bet" to me...so taht made my night. haha.I decided to cash out a little after that. I had gotten AA one time but took it down preflop. Figures, right? I actually sometimes prefer not getting hands, cause I can take down pots without chit, but it seems when I get AA or KK or something, i end up having to make a tough decision and it's just ap ain in the ***. So Im kinda glad I didn't get any action with my aces. heh.Regardless, it was time to see Chappelle...and that was sweet.A quite funny duder opened for him. He looked kinda wasted, but that's just me. As I said, he was really funny and was a good start to chappelle.Chappelle came out and he owned....so funny...i really can't put into words his jopkes cause i'll ruin them...but the thing i like bout chappelle is that he seems really down to earth and in touch with people. Just real. A lot of the stuff he talks about are social issues to, which he makes light of..but it's obvious he has some real stances and beliefs on issues, which I respect that he can make jokes about them, while kinda still being serious...and getting ppl to laugh with him and at the people he jokes about.After the show Trevor and I and his friends head to The Trop area to hit up a bar...trevors car runs outta gas on the way, so we have a 30 minute detour while that gets fixed...we finally get to the bar and start drinking some cap'n cokes and blah blah blah. After a while we decide to go in the Trop and do some gambling....I had been doing a buck a day in the slot machines and had nothing to show (rigged)...so while we were waiting for trevor to get a drink from the pokre bar I put a buck in, and this other guy we were with put in $2.He ended hitting a little jack pot and won $550 or something right away. So sick. I guess this guy is low on money, so it meant a lot to him. He did a little dance/jig that was really freaking funny...so sick...so what do we decide to do with the money? OBV play roulette. THis guy turns his 550 into around 1.1k by the end of the night. He was on fire at roulette. Good times. I don't really like other games besides poker, but it def. is fun to be at a casino with friends and a few drinks and bet a little bit.I threw down $100 on red and hit, then $50 on red and lost. I decided to take my remaining $50 profit and play BJ. Busto...I cashed out my $100 even and we all walked.Back at the hotel we got (they drank before chappelle while i played poker) we drank just a little more...and then passed out.Next morning, nothing really eventful happened. I went to trevors and that night (sat) we went out in philly to some bar thing. A lot of ppl were there and it was pretty crazy, but i'm more of a chilled bar type guy...but whatever....it was a good tiem with the ppl i was with...we left around 2.30 or 3 and then ate at this diner which was pretty awesome.i ought to mention trevors friend who was like having a fling with his 4th cousin. Is that weird? We thought it was...i think? lol...yea...anyways.Sunday came and I was leaving in the evening. I played some online poker at his house, nothing eventful...we went to philly to get a cheesesteak before I left. We ate at Gino's and it was pretty damn good...except that I put hot sauce on part of my bun and it about killed me.I usually do alright with hot stuff, but ohhh my damn. this stuff was brutal. My eyes felt like they were bleeding...my lips were killing me....it was so sick...i couldn't believe it.But that's that...flew home and went to sleep.Overall I profited like $1k on the trip. I think that's good for the amount of live poker I played...I really enjoyed playing at both the borgata and the trop...and i can't wait till i get out there again.Hope you enjoyed my ramblings...later.- Jordan

good reads

I'd just like to mention my crazy *** friend who kinda had a fling with his 4th cousin actually did have a fling later that night with her.. The Gross details are below so if you are easily sickened I'd suggest not reading.She was in town bc her father had died. She is from California. My friends Grandmother and her Great Grandmother were sisters, that is how they are related. They spent the week getting closer and closer and then started hooking up at the bar we were at on Saturday night. We made incest jopkes constantly to them and they just laughed. So later that night my friend takes his cousin home to his Grandparents house. Here comes the disturbing part, seriously beware. They start getting down to business and she literally pulls her tampon out and puts it on the drawer and they have disgusting incestual bloody sex. Yeah. Seriously. I hang out with some messed up people.

That may be the best lock it up ever. NH sir. Also, nice trip report. I enjoyed reading it, as I play almost exclusively at the Borgata when I make my Atlantic City runs. Its definetely the best poker room in town.

That is honestly one of the most disgusting things I have read on this forum.

I'm bumping this thread to show Jordan how great our relationship used to be and how much I need him.

And then this guy proceeds to tip $10 after being reminded by the table to tip. $10? Your QQ just held for a +$2k pot and you tip $10. What a nit. We all bust his balls and he tips $15 more. I tipped $75 to the dealer who was leaving. I kinda regretted overtipping, but whatever. It was a funny *** night and I didn’t really care.

Why do so many people feel the dealer deserves a tip in relation to the size of the pot? What did the dealer do other than what he does on every hand to deserve $25 on that one hand? Maybe it's just me.Also, if you ever need a dealer for a game your hosting, let me know.
