Vegas & The Aftermath - Diary

[JaffaCake]

Nearly as good as being there with u teeks, feels like u is due a card rush (or misreading your hands)

[Nakor]

Can we have a deep run with lots of updates please.

I have the unders on this thread making 1 Million views before September 10th.

Loving your enthusiasm.

Unlucky mate!

You seemed to enjoy every minute of playing it yesterday, was really good to see.

[tikay]

Nice pennage Mr.K looking forward to further instalments, and hopefully a bink or two.

Thanks Kev, appreciated.

[tikay]

Be lucky!

Glad you get to go and play for a change. I remember watching you running around like a mad thing when I saw you there at the WSOP a few years back.

Thanks George.

I enjoy "working" when in Vegas, & there are far worse gigs in poker.

Somehow, I've been sent here 8 years running now, all expenses paid, so I'm a very lucky fella.

Hope all is well down at Luton, not been there in ages, just so much to do every day, but I'll try & start coming up once or twice a week soon. I miss the place, & the people, very much. 

[tikay]

Raised it up with    

Flop....

 

And somehow I miss/loseboth ends.

Done over half my stack there, down to 2,300 now.

Blinds are 75-150, if no forward momentum by the end of this level, time to try and find a spot to flip.

It's very hard to loose both end sir . So unlucky there . Good luck with rest if the tourney u playing ,

Thanks Frankie.

Hope all is well with you & your beautiful daughter.

Hoping the run good starts. What's next on the agenda? Cash games or another tourney?

Good effort Tony, glad you had fun.

On to the next one and another appearance on The Nugget's honours board.

Thanks Ralph, fingers crossed. I ran outrageously well last year, & the Poker Gods have an uncanny knack of levelling the score, which seems to be the case this year, but we shall see.

Today's outing, as I continue my charity Tour of Vegas Cardrooms, donating freekly to all & sundry, is Caesars, @ 4pm, for another PLO8 affair. Love Caesars, so looking forward to my first visit this trip.

Don't feel so good this morning, a combination of eating too much bad food, & maybe an adrenelin hangover from yesterday's WSOP PLO8. My rear view mirror tells me I misplayed my exit hand (R-O-T perhaps), but if I did, it was about the only bad play I made all day other than perhaps being too nitty generally.

I'm going to grab a few hours sleep before the 4pm Caesars, I have a phone-in to the Show at 11.30am (7.30 UK) then it will be napville for an hour or two, so I'm nice & refreshed for todays donation-a-thon. 

Hope you are well, & enjoying Royal Ascot, & that the US Open was a fun watch. I poked a few locals in the eye when Justin won, & he seems a decent sort of person, so I'm pleased for him, & his family.

PLO8, $240, Caesars Palace, 4pm.

Love it over there, especially that food court, lots of really really bad food. GIANT plate of mashed potato & more turkey breast than you can ever imagine, all for $6.99. Ooooh.

I saw Pete Linton at a cash table yesterday in The Rio, some guy won a pot, looked to be north of $10,000, & Pete was counting out 100 dollar bills quicker than I've ever seen anyone do it! There seemed to be a mountain of cash on the Table.

Scary stuff.

Thanks Dyl.

Yes, I loved every minute, & appreciated the rail & constant lattes.

What a thing that 6 card straight flush was, had to gutterball it on the river & it got there!

Spooky, too, as a kid did exactly the same thing to me the night before in a cash game, & I got quartered.

Thanks Jeff.

Not sure I'd know what to do if a card rush came my way!

No Vegas for you this year? I sort of seem to remember seing you with a decent stack every year in the Main.

You are allowed to take a day off Tony to recharge the batteries, and you're also permitted to eat a balanced meal once in a while too.

Why not just play a little cash at The V one day especially after playing that bracelet event yesterday and the inevitable deflation. Go and eat that roast duck and pork with rice meal at Asia Noodles which you told me you enjoyed last year. It's a balanced and nutritious meal and if you observe the relative figures of the "diners" in the food-courts with those at AN it's easy to see which is the healthier diet.

Loving the updates and terribly jealous...
