Max Pescatori is an FTP pro an he has been known to play a decent hand or two of poker. And I am a big believer of respect where respect is due. I mean, the guy does manage to work a cool nickname. "The Italian Pirate". That's just pretty sweet and fly and dope. Big-ups on that.
However, being great at poker doesn't always translate to general comprehension abilities. Newsflash: The reason they're called 'smoking rooms' is because you can, um, SMOKE IN THEM. Kind of like how a Stop Sign means Stop and a sign which reads "Yield" would like for a brotha to Yield. It's simple, really.
Here's the thing. I plan on being at a lot of big poker tournaments... places where I am sure Mr. Pirate will be... and I intend to smoke a lot at said tournaments. I know I shouldn't and I know it's killing me but I love to smoke and so here we are.
And by "smoke", I mean "chain smoke".
Now, as I am the very picture of consideration, I will always only smoke in designated smoking areas. I.e. Outdoors. Smoking Sections. Smoking rooms. And I hope I don't put out a certain pirate. Coz pirates kind of freak me out. There's something about the shoulder parrot and the eye patch that give me the willies.
Let's all agree to follow the rules and nobody gets hurt.
