Vegas so far

So far we have spent a lot of time playing online, had a pretty good month myself winning a few tournaments online as well as some other decent results. Settled in the house now, will try and get some pics of it on the blog next time. Games room is gettin some abuse, pool table, table tennis table and xbox. Had tickets for the UFC last saturday which was awesome, machida smashed up evans in the main event but most of the undercard fights were sick as well.

The WSOP started a few days ago so the online grinding was about to take a back seat as we started the quest for bracelets. Moorman was the only one from our house to play the $40k buy in, he even binked a $1500 sattelite for it 2 days beforhand saving himself a nice wedge. He never really got going on day 1 but went from 60k to 160k on day 2 before losing a big pot to mike matusow with set over set, sigh. Next on the list was the $1k freezeout on saturday so we all went to the rio on friday evening to buy in. After buying in we shot over to cesars to meet 'the shrewdies', creators of this epic thread on blonde :

When we got there trigg was semi deep in the 500 but lost a 40BB flip straight away while horneris was in last 4 of the $200 turbo. He ended up losing HU much to the delight of his housemates when some old boy limped KK and horner jammed TJ in his eye, lol. After that things started getting messy, lots of beers and jager bombs before we all hit the craps table. It got to about 3am and every1 started going home as it was a mid-day start the next day. Me, stevie and jonnybelow thought it would be a better idea to take our winnings on craps to the rhino until 9am. Me and stevie both didnt make it to the tournament, gg 1k and lesson learnt... hopefully.

Played in the $1500 freezeout yesterday and it was a brief affair. out of 2900 people me and stevie managed to get drawn on the same table and after about 30 mins I have KK and lose all in preflop to stevies AA, kill me now. I but the 1st hand of level 2 (50/100) when stevie opens the cut-off to 300 and i jam 1200 from the SB with A9 only for the old guy in the BB to wake up with AA, wiiiiiiiiii. Heading down to play the $1500 6 max today so hopefully fair a little better.
