I first met Joe Cada back in the beginning of June when he flew down to Vegas to rent a couch from me as he partied it up with us and played in all of the World Series of Poker events. I never imagined this 21 year old kid would with a baby face would be the new 2009 WSOP Champion!
We arrived at the event a little after 1opm because of a 20 minute hold up with horrible traffic on Flamingo. Bree was able to lock us up some sweet seats in the front of the main event. The room was packed and sections were filled with yellow shirts which Cada’s agent had given out to his fans. It was Darvin Moon vs Joe Cada and Joe was a strong favorite especially going in with a commanding chip lead.
It was an intense heads up match between the two poker players but after a 3 1/2 hour battle Joseph Cada defeated Darvin Moon when his pocket nines held up all in preflop against Darvin’s QJ. A questionable all in call by Moon. I stuck around a little afterwards as Joe had the Pallazo Suite upstairs and everyone was going to party it up, however constant media would keep Joe tied up for hours, so I headed back home. The real party will be tomorrow and its going to be a real rager, I’ll be sure to post pictures and a review in tomorrow’s blog post.

good stuff! and congrats Joe!
love your blog!
read about the game of life… i don’t think i’d every play that crap!
your blog sucks balls
That last pic of Joe getting caught reminds me of doing not one but *two* sets of pushups while filled up on Cain’s chicken strips. Good times.
…and…. you still owe me a few more… Hows your foot?
You know this isn’t good press for Joe posting this stuff, right? Seeing how he’s the ME champ now and ambassador of poker, I don’t think it’s good to make him look like an alcoholic idiot right off the bat…
Wow Adam! Congrats to Joe!! That’s so amazing- I could never imagine how incredible that must feel!
Oh, and note to this “Bob” guy that put up the last comment: Readers LOVE Reality. In our current era reality is a massive market, and I honestly don’t think there is such thing as “bad press” anymore. Everyone knows that Joe is human, and we’re all entitled to our “alcoholic idiot” variety of moments in life as humans.
Go Bob go bob, wait, I mean, go Ashley go Ashley WOOOOOOO!
hahaha
Congrats to your roommate – epic win
Have i told you how much i love the new layout of your blog?!
I LOVE IT!!!
Hey, for everyone who knows this maggot, just know he’s on Craigslist offering $5 an hour to clean up this piece of crap blog design — a 15 year old flopping burgers at McD’s makes $7.75, you deadbeat.
Guess you get what you pay for, cheapskate. This page looks TERRIBLE.
Get a life, afford to hire a real designer (MINIMUM $15-25 an hour), or learn to do it yourself, Adam.
Yeah, his page sucks! My grandma can design a better page!
Who cares what he is offering, its his freedom to offer a job on the open market. If you don’t like the price to go work at fucking McDonalds you unemployeed bastard!
Seriously you douchebag? $5 an hour to make a design for your website. Minimum wage is higher than what you are offering. I hope someone finds you out at “da club” and punches you in the head for being a bag of shit. You look like a douche as it is but your Craig’s List posting is just the icing on the cake.
In Reference to the Craiglist Ad :
I have had developers for $5 and $6/hour multiple times for projects over the past few years. All of them have been from India and Malaysia and have done excellent work for me, were easy to deal and very professional…
Now I understand the economy is bad and its causing some people to panic and become frustrated, obviously some web designers more than others. Best of Luck.
wish i was there!
