Poker Hustlers Loving Pool Players

When I was in Vegas in July for BCAPL Nationals, I was eating at a restaurant one night and the bartender asked me what brought me to town.  I told him I was here for a big pool tournament.

His reply was, "Oh, at the Rio."

"Uh, how do you know that?"

Usually the taxicab drivers know this info, but not bartenders at some random restaurant on the Las Vegas strip.

He said he was a part time poker player.  And that because a lot of pool players love to gamble (he's right, you know), that the pool players like to play poker, too.

So, he knows when all the big pool tourneys come to town because he hangs out in the poker rooms of the host casinos to take our money!

Hustlers in every sport, huh?
