Poker in Vegas

Well we rolled into Las Vegas Sunday morning around 5am local time. We got a hotel off the strip for the morning and made it into the house around 2pm the next day. It looked just as good as we seen in the pictures on the website. I picked up my first ever speeding ticket on the way in Illinois, I thought the speed limit was 70, nah it was only 65. Honestly, I haven't seen a speed limit that was 65 on an interstate since '97 or so. Oh well, back to the poker, I played in Event #5 on Monday at the WSOP, was a $1500 PLO event. Started with 4500 chips and the levels were an hour. I busted out in the first two hours losing 77A8 versus QT44 on 762 2 heart flop for a 6k pot. He had 3 hearts in his hand and I had one as well. River came 3 hearts, I was around an 80 percent favorite to win the hand. About twenty minutes later, I get AAT6 allin preflop vs AA85 and QJ99 and lose, was a 6k pot. I played in event #7, which was a $1500 WSOP NL event. Started with 4500 in chips and hour levels, same as the PLO event. I lasted a little over two hours in this one, before running TT into QQ for around a 10k stack. I never got anything going on early in this one either.

After I busted the PLO event yesterday, I came straight back and played some online MTT's. I won the 50 cubed on Stars for a little over $6k. I also took fifth in the 33 rebuy on Full Tilt for around $2k. I profited around $7k on the day playing online. This was my first full grind session online for quite sometime. I crushed last year out here online and I'm off to another great start. Tomorrow I'm playing in the $1500 WSOP NL 6 Max, this is the tourney I've looked forward to playing the most except for the main event obviously. I think 6 max fits my game really well live. On Thursday and Friday, I'm playing at the Venetian which both are $550 buyins. I'll try to update again in another few days or so, take it easy!
