Day 2

Entered into the aria daily comp ($125) I was number 38 on the alternates list. As it was a 10 table comp it took like 2 hours to get in.
So as the degenerate I am I got on the cash list... O wait 26th on that also! Great I got on after an hour though it moved quite quick. I was sat for about 50 mins and made like $200 nice free rolling the comp now! I got in the comp towards the end of 100/200 level nothing of note really happened and I got it in with 15 bigs at 300/600 with asqs<adjd flop jxx 2 diamonds... No fun! I then decided to go on a wander had some food and ended up at the MGM I ended up dumping my profit for the day and a little bit more in there and went on a further wander. I've covered some serious miles already here I would be interested to see how many on a pedometer!

I ended up back at the aria after a wander around New York hotel as I figured I would play for a few more hours before getting the shuttle back.

Had the highlight of the holiday when a lovely Chinese dealer called Helen told me and a Scottish fella "English only at the table please" which sent me an him and a few of the American into laughter apparently we were speaking to quick for her to understand. Good job I'm not a Geordie, she would have had no chance.

My aria session ended down, so far I'm about 1 buy in down nothing to trivial. Tables were not that great today need some more banter tomorrow I'm thinking to play the aria  afternoon comp again and then walk back up to the Venetian popping into the belagio and ceasers on the way!

The parents are not aware of this yet I will be careful what I post as I think you should be when you post anything on a public forum! But they wouldn't mind up to a line! I imagine most of the drinking stories will come when they arrive. When I'm going out for meals and shows with them and playing poker an blackjack with my dad!

Yeh it's actually quite away from aria to Venetian but I'm 21 and need to shift a few pounds so it won't do me any harm!

Thanks! Downloaded photo bucket app and its pretty easy from there should be able to liven up the thread now! Plus it has killed time during the first level of the aria comp!

Update

Up to 13k from 10k starting stack this French guy try to bluff me! Good try... my pocket 33s were good on the river.

The hand went something like this..

Raise to 150 frog raises to 300 I flat with 33 on the button original raiser folds :/ (I literally cannot think of a hand I would raise to 150 an fold to 300 with a 10k starting stack)

The board came 779 check from the frog check from me turn was a 2 he now bet 550 I called river j he bet 1k I called he flopped aq. I just felt like aq/ak all day here he may have got there with aj but there was in my opinion a lot higher chance of it being aq or ak.

Busted aria comp Jj>ak all in pre board j109....qx blurgh!!

Went looking for some cash action the 1/3 Holdem list was huge so sat on 1/3 PLO with $200 this is my first real degen move I love PLO but I'm still very much learning! The game is now a 2/5 PLO an in say with $500 we have a guy making it 15 blind every hand and I am 2 seats to his right! Bingo I am just limp calling limp/potting but shame is he is never folding pre! So there maybe a $1000 omahahaha flip coming up!!!
