Probably a laugher on your private blog amongst your friends, but not really interesting here.

I strongly disagree. Great writeup, Santa. I look forward to the next installment.

i guess i have to disagree with blue also, i thought the initial post explained the whole trip, prop bets etc. sufficiently. I look forward to the next report.

I shall endeavour to use this as the future template for my own excursions into the poker rhelm.

A definite laugh riot. It would have been worth it just to watch you all..I too can't wait for the next chapter..

I think the whole drunken-hugging-Englishmen experience is what set Vegas apart from any other card room(s). While that specific thing has never happened to me I have seen very weird things. The sight of Grange's feet in the air must have been priceless.

You guys really need to bring a film crew along next year. That would be way more entertaining than half the poker shows on TV.

Thanks for the good read, hilarious stuff.

Let me clarify a bit, since Santa fails to do full justice to this episode. This was not just an exuberant hug gone awry, this was a completely random, full blown blind-side tackle. He might have only been a drunk 150# Englishman, but it felt like Bob Sanders had teed off on me. Of course, Santa was more concerned about stacking his chips than coming to my aid. You know a guy for 18 years, you'd think (incorrectly) he might remove his butt from his chair and pretend to care about your well-being, if not actually take a couple of steps and intervene ...

pwned! I would hope that any self respecting iowa type person could withstand the half ass tackle of a guy who has no idea what football really is.

Gawd I would have laughed my a$$ off.
