Vegas Update

Been in Vegas just under 10 days and haven't played much poker really. Today I played the $340 Caesars Palace Deep Stack event and was crippled when my AA lost to 88.

Last night I played a $175 satellite for a WSOP $1500 event and was chip leader 4 handed until I lost to a series of bad beats to finish 4th.

The only other tournament I have played was the $160 PLO8B at Binions and there by AAxx lost to A4xx after two 4s hit the flop.

Only played 2 sessions of NL cash games at Golden Nugget and Gold Coast and I am up on those.

Apart from that, I've just been having a good time in Vegas going to places such Voodoo Lounge, Glitter Gulch, Sapphires and Spearmint Rhino. The lack of PLO and PLO8B games have kept me out of the casinos!

I'm typing this from the cool Everest Poker lounge at the Rio. Looking forward to their party at Pure in a couple of days.

Viva Las Vegas

My 3-week poker trip to Las Vegas starts tomorrow!

$2,000 Lighter

Probably my worst start to a month ever as today marked my 5th losing day in a row after donking off $2,000 in PL/NL Omaha Hi-Lo cash games on FullTiltPoker!

In the Billionth Hand Bubble Hand freeroll on iPoker, ChristopherEucker won the $5,000 bounty on wootrigged by hitting a flush on the river. I finished 117/419 for zilch after being crippled by T7 on the river. Then I had to move in with T9, got called by Q8 hit a 9 on the turn but got flushed out on the river.

Spent a couple of days recently playing a few tournaments that qualify for the Pocket5s rankings and as a result I'm 18th in the Italian online MTT rankings at the moment.
