Helvetica

I felt more like getting laid then playing cards on Thursday, so after about two hours I excused myself and headed to a booty text. I wasn’t getting any cards and there were people waiting to sit, so I walked with forty and dropped my extra six dollars to the short stack, Nick, he had been getting slammed all night.

So Sunday evening came along, I got a call from Dom; he asked if I wanted to roll through and play some cards. I was delighted to attend, it was so cold that I doubled up the layers and stopped at the ATM. I normally buy beer for the game, but I’m cutting back the cash flow I out put. It was a small crowd, 100arie, Mi Boy, Dom, BOY ROY, and I. They forced me to play Omaha HiLo, I know who to play, I’m just not that great at it, mostly because it has been so long since the day in Long Beach where dealer calls the game in cash game, and we played all games, so basically I’m out of practice.

In Omaha HiLo you get four hold cards in your hand, and five on the board. Two cards in your hand must play for your five best or worst cards. A low hand must be five cards under the number 8, and the high must be really high. Lot of straight, full houses, and flushes, everyone has a big boys in their palm. Roy called me and sucked out on me so ridiculously I was about to snap. The boys hooked me up a few free rolls so it made me feel better. Worst hand, I have QQ and A2 in my hand, there isn’t a better hand out there. I go all in with about 80 bucks, and he calls and sucks out on me, there was no low hand and he got a straight. What kind of luck do I have?

Mi Boy tells us of his latest Netflix delivery about facetype, he’s a big nerd. After much second hand he told us of the mystery of Helvetica being the most used font in all the land. Chadwick starts a verbal attack about Mi Boy being a big dork, and why doesn’t he have better things to do with his time, he’s a big pussy for being obsessed with documentaries of the super lame nature. Chad should have kept his mouth shut because he was so busy talking shit that he didn’t notice he was getting reeled in to a major suck out, his pocket K’s got CRACKKKKED by the window deuce, Mi Boy called a $47 pot with pocket 2s.

It was pretty funny that in the heat of their shit talking Mi Boy got the last word and all night long he pointed out any commercial on the tube that used Helvetica as the font. Ironically Helvetica is not available on Blogger as a font option.
