The Parlay
Aspire: Godfather of Poker
Of the dozens of startling tales in Doyle Brunson's new
autobiography -- from surviving pistol whippings, mob
intrigue, and cancer to searching for Noah's Ark (the real
one, not a Bible-themed casino) -- the most improbable
remains his being drafted by the then Minneapolis Lakers.
Were it not for a freak construction site injury, his career
would've overlapped with Jerry West and Elgin Baylor's and,
thanks to vintage NBA shorts, his reputation for huge balls
might've proven more than metaphor.

Behave Badly: Trash Talk Tuesday & Thursday at the Hard Rock
4455 Paradise Road; 702.693.5000
Hoping for hilariously entertaining a-holeness and, ideally,
old-school Burt Reynolds-flick bar fights, the Rock's Poker
Lounge is encouraging poor sportsmanship like slow-rolling,
card tossing, and abusive language from players and dealers
alike; indulge in moderation, because the only thing more
addictive than gambling is smack.
Buy-in min/max is $300/$3,000, with a modest bounty awarded
to any pot-winner showing seven-deuce. Get more at
HardRockHotel.com.:

Clean-Up: Roosters Men's Grooming Center
790 Coronado Center Dr, ste 135; 702.255.4636
With antlers hanging on the wall and ancient chairs that
might've once seated Sinatra, Roosters' throwback
gentleman's treatment includes a haircut, neck shave, head
massage, hot steam towel, and ice-cold beer; helpfully, the
barbers regularly dispense free golf tips, extraneous if, as
with your grooming, the highlight of your game's also
ice-cold beer.
You can also get waxed, if you're into that sort of thing;
get the deets at RoostersMGC.com:

Underbelly-Up: The Vegas Courtesan
To be read for cultural edification only, this blog
chronicles one professional's zany encounters (accidentally
exposing a client's bits to hot-pepper oil; getting busted
by the fuzz), plus offers up advice (greeting with a
businesslike handshake = bad, with a light hug = good), law
enforcement info, erotic photos (most SFW, some emphatically
not), even a helpful lexicon -- if you're called a
"hobbyist", time to get a new hobby.
