So it's Sunday morning at Planet Hollywood and we've been playing all night. This is our last May Challenge session. Some guy sits at the other end of the table with a $200 max buy-in. He scans the table, looking at the other players and their chip stacks.
Re-Bet, Carolina John, and myself are sitting in the 2, 3, and 4 seats, and when he scans our end of the table he loses his cool and does a cartoonish doubletake. The look of confusion and consternation on his face when he sees our chips stacks is beautiful. We are all chip shuffling $100 black chips.
It's a good session overall. At our high point we all have over $1,100 in front of us and each of us cover the rest of the table combined.
The last two days I am known as Sylar to some players in town for the weekend. Carolina John said something at the table how I looked and acted like him, and at first I argued but it occurred to me it's a good poker personae to be the guy that takes your chips and steals your brain. You don't really want to fuck with that guy.
Carolina John wants to claim overall victory in the May Challenge because he won Opponent Knockouts and Biggest Chip Stack, but in reality I took down the big elephant by winning in the most important category, Total Profits.
And I won the "9-high Ship It Challenge." To win you had to--
(A) Show a 9-high bluff
(B) Say, "Nine High. Ship it!"
(C) Get pushed the pot
So the week was fun and profitable, but I don't think I've ever played so much in one week. I'm going to take the day off.
