From the Vault - April 15th, 2008

In 2008, our Pass The Dip poker game stepped up a notch.  We started the World Series of Dip including the Cold Deck Classic and we started our now defunct original web site, thanks to the Crantini Kid.  Because of all these things, our attendance grew and we started taking pictures every game for the web site.  Below are pictures from the April 15th, 2008 game.

Dandy was just cutting his chops with us back in 2008.  Still is.  First 3 sessions, he thought we were playing old maid and lost only once.

Dumb and Dumbererer

Nat X doing something weird with his face.  It looks like his "I was ahead, you sucked out on the turn and justice was served on the river", post flop look.

T-Mart trying to will the cards to change.  In 2008 she probably played them anyway...

Someone looks up to Lemon?

1 of 4.  I think if I remember this hand right, there big rereraising pre flop and X and T-Mart see the flop.  By the way look at T-Mart's levitation trick - never mess with someone who can float a chip, you are in over your head.

2 of 4.  X pushes in, T-Mart calls

3 of 4.  There isn't much like a nice pile of chips sliding your way.  So pretty, so money.  So not going in my direction this night.

4 of 4.  I believe X had something like AQ suited, and T-Mart sucks out on the river, when her kicker paired.  Any spade would've done it though... 

I remember that tell, wish he still used it!

Ummm, where did Ward's chips go?  And he still looks maniacal

Don't mistake the lightbulb for a bright idea.  I'm sure you wouldn't have... 

I remember this vividly - X and BSB lost it, absolutely lost it.  The next day, neither hand any idea what they were laughing at

Wait for it....

BAM! ohhhhh  Queens hold up, so disappointing!

Sick hand # 1 - I believe we were playing the 7/3 offsuit bonus this night so playing 7/2 offsuit was ridonkulous.  A22 flopped, 2 turned and a monster turns to mud

Sick hand #2

Three "Alpha" males

Look at Tom's stack.  He hit and ran and never came back!  Joffa is obviously on his 12th re-buy which was par for the course

The last web site was pretty much just a vehicle for Nat X and I to make unrelenting fun of each other and occasionally everybody else

If you never saw what the old web site looked like, Nathan is happy to show you

I'd be smiling too if they trusted me with the internet at work

Nat X chuckles as someone actually suggests he do something work related
