Eat Until Your Heart Is Content Whilst Playing Online Poker Games
People often associate Las Vegas with over indulgence and excess and certainly their point seemed to come true with the story about Joey Chestnut! This powerhouse eating machine hit the Vegas headline for his participation in the first ever Martorano’s Masters Meatball Eating Championship. Yes you didn’t read it wrong, it was definitely a meatball eating competition! The owner of the restaurant where the competition was held came up with the idea, but originally was undecided as to whether to choose cheese steak or meatballs. “We’re really known for our meatballs though. Gourmet magazine said that they had the best meatballs in the world during 2007.
Joey Chestnut’s brilliant effort even had him breaking the World Record for meatball eating when he ate 6.25lbs, which equates to 50 meatballs, all in a matter of ten minutes. The competition was held at the Rio All Suite Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas and was labelled as a Major League Eating-sanctioned competition. The competition prize wasn’t peanuts either with the winner taking home $1500. If you were thinking that the results were totally unexpected then you would be mistaken as Joey is quite an expert in the field of competitive eating. He has been known to seize the championship in competitions featuring chicken, pizza and Hotdogs!
There was no stuffing meatballs in by hand, as the rule of this competition was eating by using utensils only! Joey who is over six feet tall and weighs in at a mighty 218lbs only managed to grab the title by just one meatball, and coming in second place was Pat Bertolli who ate 49 balls. A surprising outsider took the third place in the form of Sonya Thomas who weighed in at a flyweight of just 105 pounds but managed to eat 42 meatballs. She is certainly somebody to watch in future competitions, or maybe she was just hungry after her time playing poker!
She could always try playing poker at home. That way she could eat and play all day and night long. Rakeback, Full Tilt Rakeback and Pokerstars Rakeback are all games she could sign up to. Mind you I bet if she ate and played at home her weight wouldn’t stay at just 105 pounds for long!
