Back from Vegas.........

I returned home from Vegas a few days ago but haven't really got around to posting about it yet. My original plan was to take my laptop out there and give some updates during the trip but i managed to take the laptop but forget my wireless card. Besides completely bombing in the 1500 w.s.o.p. tourney i had a really great time out there as usual. When i got out there i still wasn't sure if i was going to play in the wsop event or just play like 3 venetian 500 tourneys but once i actually got to the Rio and saw the wsop craziness it made me want to play. Unfortunately for me though i obviously went completely card dead in the tourney and after like 4 hours of folding i got all in with A7 vs. J10 off preflop and lost. It just sucked being so card dead because i couldn't really get in any rhythm and when i tried to make any kind of steals/moves someone was coming back over the top of me all in. My buddy (Moeller) was able to cash in the tournament http://www.worldseriesofpoker.com/tourney/event.asp?tourneyID=3465&groupID=309 and finished in 268 so that was pretty cool, here's the link at the bottom of the page he is under craig mUeller haha. Honestly though when i did bust out of the tourney i was kind of relieved because now i could get back to the cash games and make some real money. I played 2/5 no cap at the Wynn most of the time and was able to put together some pretty good numbers for the limited amount of time i played. The games were playing pretty soft as usual and i was able to win around 2500 during the week which paid for my tourney and my trip. If i wouldn't have played in the tourney i would say it was a good week of poker but i guess it was fun just to say i played in a wsop tourney. The trip was pretty poker related so i don't have too many ridiculous stories. I did learn a new dance called dealing the cards( wish i had a video of) i spent 100 dollars on bottle service at a strip club only to get up and leave 2 minutes later( too drunk) and have about 1k that i have no clue where it went or what i spent it on. It was a great time out there but once again we were unable to find/even look for apartments so i think that i might go back out there in a few weeks. Well that pretty much sums up our trip out there and I'm about to start playing online so check back later to see how that went and I'm out.
