Who Says It’s Cold at the WSOP?
Everybody keeps bitching about how cold things are at the World Series of Poker this year.
Three weeks into the series, you’d think people would stop wearing shorts, sleeveless t-shirts, and flip-flops.
But hell, no!
Tony “Top Cat” Cousineau approached me this afternoon. He was shivering so badly, you’d think he was trapped inside a meat locker. His skin turned blue. The poor man looked like a corpse. He went off on me about how cold it is, while dressed in what amounted to a Speedo.
Hey Top Cat! You’re from Florida! Your idea of a cold front is the thermostat hitting the low 60s at Daytona Beach. Go out and buy a sweater! Try this — put on some long pants! Hey Tony — how about investing two bucks in a pair of socks?
I’m sick of the complaints. They’re becoming like bad beat stories.
Now, if you will excuse me I need to head off to CVS to buy some more cough syrup and over-the-counter dope. I can’t seem to shake this cold that’s been with me since the WSOP started.
Purely coincidental, I’m sure.
Just wanted tell you that I enjoy your stories, sarcasm, and obvious truths that others seem reserved to state. I’m probably not worthy to be followed by you on twitter, as I don’t meet all your qualifications. Sometimes it’s just nice to know you are appreciated. You make me laugh. Thanks for your antics!
I’m in the Rio everyday and I wear long sleeved shirts, sweaters, long pants, socks and closed shoes. And I’m still freezing cold. Brasilia is ok when it’s crowded but Amazon is just insanely cold all day long. And I’m from The Netherlands where it’s cold all year long. I can go on but I’m afraid it would sound like a bad beat story. Oh wait, it already does…
Wonder if it’s on Audible.com – I’d rather hear the voices of the actual man, with guys like this.
You miss so much with “words only some times..” I dunno – I’ll look out for it, but I don’t think I ever seen it on the shelves – anywhere here in the east.
huh? I thought I had them all.. (The poker books I wanted anyway)
Nice read yet again.
