As part of the massive amount of hospitality Kyle is showing Celina and I, he has arranged for us to have a massage over at a local spa at 11:30am. Naturally we have some trouble waking up at such an hour and make it over 15 minutes late, but nobody at the spa seems too pissed.
I spend the afternoon in Kyle’s office hijacking his computer and writing. Kyle hangs out for a while and spends time elaborating on all the intricacies of the card room/casino industry, which is pretty fascinating stuff. It’s a sort of juggling act of responsibility. The title of boss means he has to be constantly thinking about the bottom line and the efficiency of the operation, but the work environment of the casino means it’s occasionally necessarily for him to transform into a stripper pole on karaoke night.
In the evening the tournament is having a $50 tournament which I tell Kyle that Celina and I will play. He puts a $50 bounty on both of us which forever destroys any chance of my running a bluff. The tournament naturally has a very fast structure but I manage to run good and come into the final table with a medium stack (which is about 9 BB’s.) A few hands into the final table I peek down at JJ and open shove. I get called by KQ and TT, and when the KQ makes a boat my tournament is over, though I did manage to break even for Celina and myself.
After that it’s karaoke in the casino bar with all the great people we’ve met in Fresno. When traveling many people get caught up to the places they’re going, but what I’ve found really decides how much fun you have is the company your with. The people we’ve met in Fresno have not only been very accommodating but a total blast to hang out with, easily making it one of my favorite stops this trip.
