Friday night was the first of many poker nights at the house. Fourteen guys played. It was awesome. It would have been more awesome had I taken the pot.
I had taken an early lead and was chip leader for a good portion of the game. Ben was clearly impressed as can be seen above by his pointing to my massive pile of chips.
Sadly, that came crashing down when I went all in on a hand I was sure I had. Even so, I had the opportunity to smoke three cigars (they get better the more you smoke) and enjoyed time with the guys.
First place: Daniel Lindberg ($85)
Second: Bill Nye ($50)
Third: Ben Hoffman ($30)
Fourth: Me ($10)
So close to win… good thing you had fun otherwise!
