I decided to take today off from playing poker. So right now, I'm doing laundry instead.
 I'm going to go out to dinner with some friends tonight and then swing by the Rio and see how sjay and Mayhem are doing in the Limit O8 event tonight. Slackers didn't even post that they are playing in it, but they are......... I also found the schedule for tourneys at the Venetian. I think I'm going to play in one or possibly two of those instead of the $1500 WSOP event that I was considering playing on Saturday. They have a $1060 on Friday ($10k starting chips - 25/50 blinds to start - great structure), and a $540 on Saturday. I think I'd rather play in both of those than the WSOP crapshoot on Saturday. I'm gonna play it by ear, depending on how the 6 man tourney goes on Thursday. |

There were actually another dozen or so as well - you guys just don't know all of their names.
I was surprised to see him, since I'm pretty sure he's like 19 or 20, right? Basically, he just came over and said hello, so I said hello back - no hitting. He said he got here a couple of days ago and will be here until August, so I'm sure he and shabi will have plenty of time to go drinking. Because he's underage, I assume he'll be sticking to the cash games. I don't know what he was playing, but I saw him cashing out about 3 racks or red ($1500) later in the night. As for me.... I ended up playing for about 6 hours, until like 4:30 AM local time. I was again playing well, but I did make two calls that I shouldn't have. I knew better, but called anyway. Ran pretty crappy overall for the session, and finished down about $300. considering those two bad calls alone cost me about that much, I'm happy to have been able to break even the rest of the night. Reads were very solid all night, once again. My problem with the two calls I made was going with my brain ("he couldn't have REALLY hit that, could he?") instead of my gut that knew right where I stood in the hand. I was planning on leaving about 2 hours earlier, but the later it got, the more shorthanded we played, which is definitely an edge for me. And some drunk guy came and sat at the table too,so I just couldn't resist. Naturally, he was a drunked card rack. I'm doing nothng today - might play cash game for a while later, but I'm calling it an early night tonight, as I have the 6 man event tomorrow and I want to be fully rested. None of this going to bed when the sun is up crap. sjay and mayhem can do that and still play well, but I'm way too old.

Wont be around all that much the next two weeks or so. Going home to Boston for a visit, about 11 days. I will be checking in a bit, so I will be able to get some updates.
But, just wanted to say best of luck to all you guys at WSOP. Continue to pwn and make us all proud.
