I phone mania!!!!! and a very good day on stars

I'm usually not the kind of person to get caught up in the hype of new things but i have to admit the i phone looks pretty sweet. I have had the same shitty phone for like 4 years now mainly because i was waiting for some great new technology to come out and it looks like it might have arrived. I wasn't foolish enough to go wait in lines for hours or anything but i think after all the madness settles down i am going to have to pick one of these up. For those of you who have been under a rock the past week or so here is a link to the futurehttp://www.apple.com/iphone/.
Enough about iphone and onto some poker talk. As you can already tell by the title i did have a pretty good day on stars and was playing great poker. Yesterday i played great no limit and Omaha for about 5 hours and ended up with nothing to show for it, very frustrating. I did make about 500 yesterday but it very easily would've been a 4k day but i took two very sick beats towards the end of my session. I got some idiot to go all in preflop for 1k with ak vs. my KK and sure enough he catches his ace on the flop and i lose 1k. Next in omaha i was killing the games and sure enough i get it all in with the nuts against this idiot who couldn't fold and he rivered out a flush on me when he was getting no odds to call. I still haven't got my desktop fixed so I'm on my laptop which sucks because i really want to show you these 2 hands from yesterday and just how sick they were. Yesterday was very frustrating but i knew i was playing great and these things are going to happen sometimes. Today i was playing great and unlike yesterday i actually have some money to show for it. I didn't really feel like going out tonight so i was able to play for about 9 hours which is by far the most I've played in a while. I was 3 tabling the 5/10nl and was able to make about 3k doing that. Also i played in the nightly 150 that paid the top 90 (i busted in 102nd lame)out of 700 players and i also played in a 77 buy in 6 handed tourney. I was playing well and catching some cards at key points and managed to finish in 2nd place out of about 250 players. The 2nd place paid like 2,500 or something but i really wanted the win more than anything. I think first was like 3700 or something but my first tourney win would've been worth way more than the money. Another 2nd place is kind of disappointing but I'm very happy with how i played and if i keep putting myself deep in tournaments i have to eventually break through and win one. Overall on the day between cash games and tournaments i pulled in around 5500 so i cant complain, even though i really wanted to win that tournament. Anyways I'm pretty beat so I'm about to pass out and check back tomorrow to see what i got goin on.

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.
