After much TBC Inner Circle haggling, posturing and fighting, a decision was finally reached to have the first ever international Tony Bigcharles meet up in Las Vegas this coming week. All friends and followers of Tony across the world -- and beyond -- are invited.
Actually, I had been kicking around this idea for about a year. Of course, the purpose, u see, is to have a FUN gathering for many of people who seem to live and breathe poker on social media sites like Twitter and/or who have at least a passing interest in the blog or gambling exploits of Tony Bigcharles. Come and meet or say hi to people you interact with or have read online. Have a drink or some food and come and go as you like.

Is Tony gonna be there?
I be going sir.
Can I get silly drunk?
Can we use comps?
@grrouchie -- Drink too much, my friend, and you might find yourself the head of the Inner Circle once again. You have been warned.
@Kat -- Tony says he will be there. It means time away from gambling, however, so I'd say there are some odds at play here.
Sorry everyone, I can't make it until July. Hope you have a great time anyway.

Can I bring cards against humanity?
What about Flushhdraw and Chris Abramski and that Kevin guy? Also did you forget the Trooper?
Will retweet
@Koala - Found out about a family wedding, so hoping to go to Las Vegas starting July 17 or so.
@AC - Info is posted here with a referral from Twitter, so Chris and Flushh should see it. Kevin G is welcome to come. I am not friends with The Trooper. You should invite him if you want.
If this actually becomes a memorial I'll be there, else I invite everyone to Bally's/Flamingo/Venetian afterwards for a *quiet* game of poker.
I hate to be a nitpicker, but wasn't the first TBC Memorial Meetup the tournament at the Riviera in 2012?
I might have to do my laundry then. Sorry.
July 17 would work for me. Gives me a chance to get over my jet lag from the week before.
Here is your nit to pick, Rob: this one is the first ANNUAL one. #nitpickers
I have probably played more times with Tony than the rest of you combined.
I have read the blog since 2008, which is when I started playing poker and when I first met Tony.
I feel I know many of you vicariously and will try to be there.

Can you turn it into a roast?
Also, go to a casino and film him as he points out if women are hookers or not. He seems to think 78% of all women are hookers so I want to see him in action.
@Lightning--Well, you better make sure you have one next year, then. Same bat time, same bat channel.
there had better be lots of photos an videos. wish I could be there.
I hate to miss this, but I won't be attending. I insist on a great report complete with photos.
Where will it be, the In N Out or TGIF?
I know Tony from "Dem Good Ol Machines" at the Gold Strike as I work out there, and yes, I have met Vince!
Definitely at TGIF Wed at 6:30pm. You must have at least a few good stories to share!
Wish I could have made it. Would have been nice to meet everyone and would loved to taken some of Tony's money at the poker table again. I just hope his roll holds up till march when I am in Vegas.
