Tues 23 June, Event 45 $10,000 Pot Limit Hold'em World Championships
Not much poker news this weekend, played in the $1,000 Deepstack Extravaganza at Venetian. Wasn't in best of mood after the Bokke played so terribly against the Lions and had my Aces snapped my KJcc all in preflop...
Anyway, since then, have watched a lot of the US Open, felt bad for Phil choking at the end, 5 second places in the US Open is insane, and especially this one when his wife is about to undergo treatment for her breast cancer!
Went out on Sunday night to XS at Encore. On Sundays the entire club actually happens at the pool and surrounding areas, was good fun, and had a touch too much to drink but definitely didn't go as BIG as the rest of the boys...
Tomorrow is the $10k buy in Pot Limit event which I am very excited for, a much deeper starting stack of 30,000 should allow me for plenty of time before the pressure kicks in and I should have a while to pick up some hands!
Say some prayers and hold thumbs that I pick up some cards and maybe even suck out on some people every now and then, and hopefully the event can turn out to be profitable and exciting at the same time!
That's it for now, need some rest before a salmon bagel breakfast and plenty of time on the tables, a full day, hopefully!
Kicked some Rhino/Jono/Marco butt in Chinese poker tonight, picked up a $400 win, and did some mad shopping today buying 4 pairs of shoes and a few hoodies and pants...
Love from Vegas...
