Just Call Me Phil
I was playing at a Poker After Dark table, but the strange thing is...it was in my house, and my mom and dad were also at the table. I was Short-stacked, but then i hit a huge hand (straight) against my mom and dad, and i tripled up. After that, i was back in business. However, i looked down a couple hands later, and most of my chips were GONE. I was pissed. "What the hell happened to my chips???" i yelled. I was convinced that someone had STOLEN my chips, and i couldn't believe it. I decided that instead of trying to work with what i had left, i was going to quit and cause a big scene. It wasn't fair. Just after i get enough to start working again, my chips mysteriously disappear. I started walking around behind people and examining their chips to see if they stole mine, and then i would apologize to them for accusing them individually. I still wanted to watch the match, so i didn't leave. I just stormed around. I didn't know how much i had left, and at one point, Johnny Chan tossed me a single chip that represented the amount that i foolishly claimed to have. I said, "thanks," but gave it back. A little later, the producers of the show came up to me and talked to me. They were trying to convince me to come back, but i said there was no point. "Why should i play if someone's going to be stealing my chips?" Eventually, they put out a plate of food with a restored bunch of chips at my seat. I still didn't think it was what i had before, so i decided that i would eat the food, auto-fold every hand, and then leave again once i was done eating.
I was at some sort of event where people's names were being announced, and then they were coming out into the crowd. As they cheered or something. There were a couple people i recognized, most notably a yo-yoer kid that i thought was kindof annoying, but his parents were really cool. When his name was called, his mom cheered really loudly, and then we heard a voice say something like, "We know who the kids' parents are, so please keep it down." We all thought that was pretty weird. I went to my seat next to...whoever i was sitting with, and there was a hot mom next to me (who sounded a lot like Caprice Helm, but didn't quite look like her). She greeted me, and told me she wasn't staying, but she had to do something with her kid for a minute there. The whole time she was doing whatever with her kid, she kept her hand on me. After she was done, she said she was leaving and asked me for a hug, so i got up, gave her a big hug, and said, "i'll miss you!"

That first dream was definitely related to the episode of Poker After Dark i watched last night in which Phil Hellmuth threatened to quit after getting needled by his opponents and even left the table for a few hands. However, i think my outburst was more warranted since my chips were being stolen...or something.
