PrivateJoker called and said he'd be on his way. When he showed up I asked him what (free!) food I should get with the caveat that I wanted something kind of light. He suggested the buffalo wings, and I reiterated that I wanted something "light," ie not buffalo wings. He then suggested the Asian chicken salad, which I assume at Commerce is just called the "chicken salad." It was pretty good. [/ QUOTE ] Actually, I said "Oriental Chicken Salad" (more offensive) because at Commerce, it's actually called the "Oriental Chicken Salad." At the Bike, it's just called "Chinese Chicken Salad." [ QUOTE ] PrivateJoker and I only played one hand together and I'm proud to say I'm undefeated against him. [/ QUOTE ] It's true. I raised PF from LP, Brad called in the blind, and an EP limper called. Brad checked the flop suspiciously, EP donked, and I decided not to peel because I smelled a checkraise coming. Brad checkraised and won the pot on a river showdown having flopped TPGK. Nice flop fish. [img]/images/graemlins/cool.gif[/img] |

Last time I was at the "C" unless I was working I couldn't peal myself away from the tables for more than 45 minutes. I have been inspired by you, next trip I visit the Getty and MOCA, I'll spend less time in the card room.
Didn't know PJ is playing the 20/40 now, way to go mate! Spend lots of time drinking boba tea. Thats bubble tea to us east-coasters, their Vietnamese coffees kick ass. TT [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] |

But the 20 game Brad and I were in at Commerce was so good, I'm tempted to move up before I'm properly bankrolled. I won't, though, because I'm weak and scared. |

Sushi Roku for good sushi (expensive). Boa for good steaks (expensive). Houston's for solid American food, not great, but serviceable.

Boa for good steaks (expensive). [/ QUOTE ] I went there with JasonT and Shant the last time I was in LA. Very good meal. I'm not sure that the steaks themselves were as good as at some of the other high end place I've been, but the sides and appetizers were fantastic. Best oysters I've had on the West Coast. scrub |

Anyway, I'm planning on going to Santa Monica tomorrow and just kind of wandering around and then heading back to Commerce late afternoon/early evening. Suggestions for lunch places in Santa Monica would be appreciated. [/ QUOTE ] Le Pain Quotiden, just off the Promenade on Santa Monica Blvd between 3rd and 4th. |

Moved to a different 20/40, I was surrounded by Lebanese dudes. I felt like Israel in '67! It took them about two minutes to ask me if I was Jewish and then start calling me cheap. PrivateJoker called and said he'd be on his way. When he showed up I asked him what (free!) food I should get with the caveat that I wanted something kind of light. He suggested the buffalo wings, and I reiterated that I wanted something "light," ie not buffalo wings. He then suggested the Asian chicken salad, which I assume at Commerce is just called the "chicken salad." It was pretty good. [/ QUOTE ] Awesome. |
