Quick Vegas Update

November 13, 2009, 06:23:38 PM »
Arrived here Tuesday evening after a long long day and a decent flight with the new BA direct from Heathrow although I must report that i found the onboard food inedible, other than that the flight was fine and landed on time at around 6.15pm local time and I got a taxi immediately after claiming my bag and was safely ensconced in The Golden Nugget showered and back in their familiar cardroom grinding $1/$2 by around 9pm.
I managed to stay up until just after midnight making it around 26 hours with no sleep and figured that I was bound to drop off immediately. Not a bit of it, I hardly could sleep a wink and was up at 7am the next morning and the bags under my eyes looked like large suitcases !
After some breakfast, oh how I love the breakfasts over here I went back to grinding the $1/$2 incurring another small loss and then decided to take the duece bus down to The Venetian and see if I could spot anyone that I know. No sooner was I seated at another $1/$2 table in a seat which was facing the tourney desk than I spotted Maria, Nicky and LeKnave arriving suitably late for the midday deepstack tourney that I had decided to swerve until I was over the jet-lag. They all looked fine and are apparently all sharing a room at shrewdie central.
I have just stuck to cash so far and am a few hundred in front but I'm going to dip my toes into the Venetian Deepstack $340 today. When I was there yesterday they were playing day two of Wednesday's tourney and I went over to see if i knew any of the survivors. Who do I spot but my old mate Rumit who was sitting comfortably with 19 left and $33K up top to play for. Good luck him !
Okay off for brekkie now then down to The Strip, will update again soon.
