Figured some pretty funny and amazing stuff happens while playing poker thought I would start a thread where you could share your most unforgettable Poker Moment for others to enjoy.
Here is Mine
I have been playing poker on and off since I was 15 years old. My most vivid
memory is when I was playing at the Silver Nugget Casino in North Las Vegas.
They had a very small card room 2 tables. There were usually the regs sitting
there on 1 table insulting each other because they knew their chances of
winning any real money against each other was slim But on the weekends
sometimes they would bring in a third table to handle the massive crowd lol.
Any ways one night I was sitting there talking to the Card Room Manager/Bus
Boy/ General Manager/Hostess/Dealer lol She had a lot of shoes to fill. I was
asking her as I and all the other regs there did to put us on certain tables. I was
requesting I be put on the table that had this lady that was dressed like Margaret
Thatcher along with her there was an elderly Cowboy and a couple real
nervous looking out of towners. The tabled looked ripe and I wanted a seat and
was given one. About 15 minutes after I sit down Margaret Thatcher whips out
this Cigar that I swear was as big as her arm. I was just getting my reads down
pretty good on these guys when this happened. She fired that stogie up took a
big ole puff leaned back in her chair turned her head to the right and blew a
huge cloud of smoke into the Cowboys Face. His whole dam head was covered
in smoke so thick you couldn't even see him from his chest up. Every one at
the table looked at her in awe with their jaws dropped. It took him about 3
seconds to realize he couldn't breathe. He jumped up like a Jack Rabbit that had
just been shot at He yelled something at first I don't recall exactly what it was
but then He looked at her and said these words I will never forget "You put that
#^%$ *&#@ (*)% ###$$$ ()() #^&$***%$# You will never be able to pull it
out!!!!!" All at once the lady jumped up grabbed her Martini or whatever the
hell she was drinking and splashed it all over him. The only thing I remember
going through my mind was dam this is going to ruin the game. Please kiss and
make up so I can take your money please. That didn't happen it turned into a
fist fight/Slap fight/Hair pulling knock down brawl. To see this old cowboy
punching Margaret Thatcher repeatedly in the face while she was screeching
and clawing at his face with 1 inch nails was too much for me to handle. I
jumped in and tried to hold the cowboy back and a few other people did the
same till Security security came but the whole time we were holding them they
were swinging and clawing away. After that pretty much the game was ruined
the few out of towners that had ventured into North Vegas quickly disappeared
back to the safety of down town or the strip and it was just a few of the regs
hanging out mainly rehashing the whole incident over and over playing their 3
hands an hour while getting free drinks and earning comp points. That I will
never ever forget.
