Title: Big PLO game in vegas

Look like this may carry on during the series. Sammy Farha offers SB rugby a coinflip for nearly half a mill at the end!

Yeah read about this.

Day 1 played at $500/$1000 NLHE+PLO

Then Sbrugby was stuck 1.2m on day to and Farha agreed to up it to $1K/$2K NLHE+PLO.

Sbrugby managed to turn his $1.2m loss into +$50K.  Before Farha offered him a $470K vs $450K flip!  Which he refused.

Best line ever.....

I finished up 1.52 million dollars (I had forgotten that I spent 40K on the PLO w/rebuy tourney)

I wish i could 'forget' 40k!

I really admire brian and read his blog regularly but he really needs to work on his people skills if this is how he deals with the staff in bobbies room after winning 1.5million+

I aint saying he should be tippings 1000s but if I can look after the dealers in a 2/5 or 5/10 game then surely he could chuck something the way of the staff

Why, the Casino should look after them with all the publicity he is giving the Bellagio

sigh you really dont understand how casinos or staff in casinos work do you. Although the casino will get loads of publicity etc the staff still get paid close to minimum wage and survive on tips. Even $100 would have been appreciated although having won 1.5 mill you would think a few $ would have been left.
