Day 1, arrival day – a Sunday (10/10). Flynn and Ollie had spent 4 days and 3 nights on the road before hitting Sin City at 2 in the afternoon. Is it wise to play poker after a long drive day, strung out and tired? Naw. F&O friend Luke herded the cats, and they agreed…
Gettin’ out of Dodge
Day 1 ~ Vacation Day! Yippee!!! Flynn, Ollie, Jones, and their handlers were on the road a full 30 minutes before their anticipated departure time. This in itself was a miracle, considering Ollie had to pack for Jones, who stubbornly refused to do it for himself. The cat is a jerk. This first day of…
Pi Day – a photo montage for George
Okay, this is not about poker. Sorry. This is about a man named George who thoroughly enjoys being a geek and celebrating Pi Day. His enthusiasm for this random day of the year is catching, and all in good fun Flynn & Ollie have joined in the festivities Here you go folks ~ punny pie…
Quick Camping In Oregon
It has been a while since the Chronicle has written up a travel article – other than those related to Las Vegas & playing poker, of course. Lest you think Flynn and Ollie are total degens (only Flynn, not Ollie), here is proof they actually get out and ‘do stuff’. Their newest obsession is taking…
DNegs vs Polk & a Zamboni
Yes, the Chronicle spouts-off often about the glaring differences between Real (live) Poker and Not-Real (online Cozen) poker, and this article is no different. However, we are asking for legit clarification from anyone as to why Daniel Negreanu would ever agree to the heads-up challenge terms currently in play. Like him or not (we do);…
LV 1/21 ~ Episode 10
Tuesday, the slowest day on the strip and in the poker rooms. There was no hurry to get out and get going because there were no games, except a few outlying places like South Point and the dreaded Orleans. Not in the mood to saddle up the horse, he just wandered over to the Aria…
LV 1/21 ~ Episode 9
Monday, after wild-card weekend in Las Vegas during a pandemic. One would think the place would be dead. Nope. There are still tourists here, gawking and taking selfies. Here is the glorious part: there are not very many of them. Flynn saw the Bellagio fountains from the rail, with no one within 50 feet from…
LV 1/21 ~ Episode 6
(Friday, the 8th) After yesterday’s rant about the Orleans room management, Flynn and Ollie were looking forward to spending some time in a classier joint. Before they could do that, however, they had to venture out to a store with food and stock up on supplies for the remainder of the week. Off they went,…
LV 1/21 ~ Episode 5
F&O were determined to do a photo shoot on this Thursday. So, up and out of the room at the ungodly houur of 1130. They wanted a montage of pix of all the iconic LV sights. They drove to the Welcome sign, the line was too long. They went to the new arch (which is…
The Poker Drama – GG issue
The Chronicle’s editors have been unusually quiet recently about the world of poker and cozen. However, having some time on their hands, and giving great thought to the topic (reading Twitter), it is time to tackle the @DanBilzerian / GG issue. Should GG have signed him as an ambassador? Short answer, yes. We know this…
