| Well Sunday was not nearly as much fun as Saturday, I must say...
|
| Went back to Venetian, I shoved a couple of times early, got no action, then went completely card dead. Not one opportunity to shove. I did outlast 4 people tho to finish 11th, earning another grand in the process.
|
| When I finally went all in, having lost half my starting stack and only at 5 times the BB, I did so with Q-9 and ran into aces from a guy who was playing about every other pot. Ugh.
|
| So 11th place out of 268. Not bad, I'm quite happy with myself right now.
|
| Then watched the Iggles for a little while (that was going well at the time), had a couple of drinks (can't remember the last time I actually drank alcohol in Vegas) and bought into the 7pm at Caesars.
|
| Oh, that was NOT pretty.
|
| Flopped a straight draw on hand number 2, tried to buy it on every street, called down by a guy with just A-K (no pair). Then got into a pot w/ a french woman who could barely speak english and constantly had to be helped to understand the bet sizes. I flopped top pair of 9s with a good kicker, she check/called every street and turned over pocket 10s. Never a raise, not even on the river with no overcard on the board. This was not a strategy on her part, this was incompetence... Then got what was left of my stack all in on a coin flip and lost, the guy had called my peflop all-in w/ just A-J suited and caught his flush on the turn (and the ace on the river for good measure).
|
| Won that money back and then some at craps, however...and at this point that is the extent of the rest of my Sunday.
|
| Frankly I'm completely worn out at this point. Not a lot of sleep the last two nights so I may call it an early night. Either that or I'll play at 12:30am at Harrahs :) But probably bed.
|
| Don't know what tomorrow will bring. I have to check out at noon (hopefully I can extend that) but my flight isn't until 7:00pm. I'm really not sure what I'll do with myself.
|
| But if there are any stories to tell, you will get to read them here! |
