Vegas & The Aftermath - Diary

[tikay]

I just dusted off 6,000 after somewhat optimistically raising into 5 limpers with;

   

They all call. Oops.

J-7-5 rainbow, they all check, i c-bet.

Everyone then takes off. They have J-J-X-X, 7-7-X-X, 5-5-X-X and 4-6-8-x.

Err, fold.

[tikay]

Just seen a pot which was 60,000 on the river.

This was the board;

 

Little old home boy from Iowa bets 3,000.

4 (FOUR) callers.

He announces "flush".

A chorus of "there is no flush" and dropped jaws.

He tables his hand and apologises embarrassedly for his misread.

He has  for the flopped nuts.

Was it Men The Master in disguise?

Pretty good disguise if it was.

What music will you be using for your ring-walk/seat-occupation which I assume will be by zip-wire?

Good luck to Simon too who will probably make a more discrete entrance.

Wish I was there Ralph, been back 2 weeks

[tikay]

Gave back 11,000 in two hands just before the break, 27,000 now, blinds going 200-400.

Really must stop playing hands.

Congrats on the result, Simon.

Back up to 36,000 after my dangler struck gold against Iowa.

Get that gamble dial turned up!

Smack opposite Binions is Hotel California.

Such a lovely place.

You can check out any time you want,

but you can never leave

Warm smell of colitis
Rising up in the air

Ticking along steadily here with 40,000.

It had been in my mind that I might fire a second bullet if a misunderstanding arose, but there are less than 70 entrants so far, of which 45 or so remain, so I don't think a second bullet - if needed - makes sense.

Hopefully that's all hypothetical.

[Marky147]

Scoopios, please!

Had dinner at the noodle house in the California, and it was very good.

Nice property, and I might give there or MSS a spin next trip, as it's about 1/3 of the price the GN is.

[tikay]

2nd break and Late Reg closed.

Just 76 entrants - much less than I expected - of which 42 remain.

Blinds now 500-1,000, and clock increased to 40 minutes.

46,000.

[tikay]

Called a 4 bet in position with;

 

I bet out on the gorgeous 7-8-X ( ss ) flop and a fella playing 24,000 set me in.

Called, obv, and missed the lot.

20,000.

Best fire up the gamble dial.
