DUBAI FINALE

Ok the last days in Dubai were heavily dominated by Poker and Russians. Nondas on an innocent night of sheesha steped up to the plate against a pro russian poker player. Well what Nondas one is experience as well as shelling out 1000 of UAE crispest Dirhams. The following night we all agreed to go round Ahmed’s house (Habib’s friend) and play some poker , it was a 200 Dirham cash game. I started off really well but I couldn’t match Habib’s rebuy power. When the Russian arrived I cashed my chips (Weli and Mark’s Dirhams) and called it a night. In comes the Russian the Greek Dominator and Habib sitting on a large stack allows him buy in. A fun game now turned to a serious Las Vegas final (aka Jackie Chan Rounders style). Habib went on to clear the Russian out of his hard earned Roubles (2000 Dirhams to be more precise). GO HABIBI JIHAAADDDDDDDDDD you the man. With my earnings and Habib’s we decided to invest into the night so we returned to ROCKBOTTOM. Being already quite heavily under the influence we proceeded to drink copius amounts of alcohol. Again the live band came on singing the same ballads to those sang the previous week. We later confirmed that we all got the Rocket Feeling.
Waking up at 4 meant that the day was wasted, thankfully Habib’s mum saved the day with a fish barbq TOOO MACHHHHHHHHH. Nondas had worked up some appetite. What can I say about Dubai apart from car accidents it had pretty much all the elements of a great holiday. As I sit here in a cafe in Mumbai drinking a Kingfisher beer on tap I suddenly realise that travelling only really started here.
