Last night in SF – Arrington’s Crib
Posted on 13. Nov, 2006 by Cameron Reilly in General
Last night was my final night in SF and what a night it was. The Aussies, including myself, the Atlassian boys, the Touchstone boys and the Tangler boys drove down to Palo Alto to have dinner at University Cafe with fellow Aussie Nik Cubrilovic from Omnidrive, honorary-Aussie Richard MacManus from Read/Write Web, Gabe Rivera from TechMeme, and Ouriel Ohayon from TechCrunch France.
After dinner we headed over to Michael Arrington’s place to play poker and liar dice. Mike Cannon-Brookes cleaned us out in Texas Hold Em and Arrington and I won a round each of liar dice. It was a great night which finished about 5am.
My tip from the evening – if you ever get a chance to play poker with MCB or Arrington for big money – watch your wallet. These guys are sharks.
A shout-out to Nik Cubrilovic for setting up the night and to Arrington for letting us use his crib. I haven’t had a night like that since I was 17. I fly out late tonight and get back to Oz on Tuesday.
I still have your pants if you’re looking for them.
Is Liubinskas still wearing them on his head?
All rumours of my poker ability are lies. Pure lies. I’m always on a bluff.
As for the liar dice, to use the Royal We in true Aussie style – “we was robbed”.
