Mini-cashout

So, there's another attorney that we share office space with who has a law student working for him. The other day, I walked in his office and heard the sweet sound of FTP chips being shipped. I sort of barged in and mentioned something about it, and he instantly kind of looked nervous and looked like he was trying to click out of it. I quickly assured him that playing FTP was fine with me. We got to chatting about poker a bit. He plays under the handle "the ten deuce", but without the spaces. I looked him up on some sites and he plays mostly mini-stakes SNGs/MTTs. He's had a few good wins too. When we were at the office, he was actually playing a playchip game (WTF!!!!????!?!?)

I told him that with the death of Neteller that if he wanted me to ship him some online cash in exchange for cash-cash, I'd do it. I was thinking $50 to $100, but he was talking like $10. He told me a few stories about Foxwoods. He'll play the $1-2 cash. One day, he ran it up to over a grand, and this weekend, he took $80 and ran it up to over $400. Why can't I ever do shit like that? Oh yeah, I suck at cash. And lately, I've been sucking at the SNGs too. Anyway, today, he asked me to spot him $10 on FTP and gave me a $10 bill. This was of course before he told me he won $300 at foxwoods this weekend. WTF? $10? This was the first player-2-player transfer I've done. Rest assured, I will probably never sit with him at any table.

Anyways, good luck to him. I wish I had discovered online poker in law school. Many hours spent being totally unproductive could have actually been put to use. Oh well.
