Friendly Game, daw : )

we were invited by one of my hubby's friends, ian (since graders and new wave era) for a children's party in lexington,pasig which turned out to be another poker night . we were not able to attend the party itself but his friends insisted (persistent SMSng) him to bring the 'set'.

the players:
etoy bakas w/ bullit, the ex-vicemayor's son
ian, now showing (balding head yet only in his 30's) bakas w/ his bayaw chef of mandarin hotel
t2 benchie, the newbie (echosero)?
kuya roger, the caller
the meralco executive
jun, the coming soon
and mwah the only girl (don't raise your brows... their wives are also watching)

my oh so...nice husband gave-way for me to play lastnight. He said he would be the 'dealuh'
buy-in was 150 but the game was really exciting 'cause everyone was boisterous, keep on asking questions and insulting those who bet 1 (as in piso talaga!). in short, all of us had so much fun that night.

everyone was calling any bets and any raise which led us to buy, buy, buy
except for the newbie? that was he said...
we set our time 'til 12mn 'cause my hubby has a flight to korea for a week.
they were pleading to him to cancel the flight just to extend the game...ha!ha!ha!

1 by 1, boys of the neighborhood lost their chips to the newbie including me. But, i told myself i need to take them back. So, what happened was the newbie and me played head to head for the last deal. I won that deal with straight but the spectators requested for another deal which made me loose 2h.

the newbie won almost 2k...got back 435 that night...los bardos by 50 (okay lang di ba!)
