They'd a good turn out from APAT/blonde considering the distance

And it was a lovely ceremony.

We weren't allowed to take pictures during, but I'm sure Joobs and Adam will update their wedding thread with photos and video when they return from Vegas.

From there, it was off to the Cheesecake Factory. This was something Joobs really wanted to do on her wedding day. She'd phoned ahead and warned them a group of 50 would be there around 12:30. They told her they don't take reservations. They'd not met us yet.

The chapel was kind enough to give us loan of two limos as we'd so many turn up and taxis were going to take ages to arrange. Adam, Julie & their family were in one and this lot bagged the other...

JonMW drew the short straw this round and was in charge of rounding up taxis for the rest.

At this point I've been up since 6:30am, I've missed the daily buffet and I'm hungry. After sorting the seating for those who made it, I ordered 3 appetisers instead of 3 courses. Others were talking about which cheesecake they wanted at the end, but I'd a feeling their portions were going to be just huge. I'm hungry, but no point ordering more than I'll eat. "Keep 'em small" I thought.

Playing it safe, ya see...

Tighty's look pretty much says it all really.

I'd also like to point out one of those 3 dishes was a salad. In case you missed it in the muddle of all that food.

Once we rolled out of the Cheesecake Factory, everyone went their own way for a bit before meeting up again later at the Tropicana for the JAPAT tournament.

JAPAT is what Joobs and Adam were calling their private tourney that night. They'd a winner's cup, medals for 2nd & 3rd, bounty prizes and a wooden spoon for 1st out. They'd also had a chat with the card room manager, Nic, explaining this wouldn't be a typical tourney and would he please relax the rules a bit. He agreed and it only took a couple of levels before the dealers got the hang of the new 'relaxed' approach.

49 turned up on the night. A mix of poker players and non-playing luckboxes tangled their way down to a final table which included the Bride.

Unlucky Sir...

What made the hand even better was that after the flop Joobie instructed the dealer to deal the turn face down and river face up because everyone knows that's where the action happens Cheesy
