Back in Vegas weeeeeeeee........



First off let me get my little brag post out of the way^^^^^^ as you can see in the picture above i did okay betting todays ncaa games making a little under 2k. The 1k bet on north carolina was by far the largest bet ive ever made but it just seemed like a gimme only being -4 point favorites in the first half. Also after todays wins im pretty much freerolling in all of the games tomorrow. Here are the games that i like tommorrow-

Wisconsin - 4 1/2 The over in the texas game and texas at -1 1/2



I also have michigan state +5 and the under in the game at 137



And of course a little parlay action.










Alright enough with the degenerate section of this post and onto what ive been up to since last blogging. I went home to michigan for 10 days for easter/st. pattys day and man i have to say it was a long 10 days. It felt really good to get away from vegas for a while but 10 days in cold michigan had me glad to finally get back to nice and sunny vegas. It was really nice to see family and friends but i think next time i will only be going for 3-4 days instead of the 10 day thing. Its just kind of hard after living here in vegas where you can do whatever you want 24/7 to going home and having everything shutting down by 2. All in all though it was definately good to see family and friends so it was worth sticking out the cold weather and lack of entertainment. A few fun things i did while i was home. Went to the red wings game the day i got home which was something ive wanted to do all year and they won so it was a good time. St. pattys day didnt exactly go as planned because it was on a monday this year so everyone went out saturday instead. Unfortunately for me I drank a ton thursday night at the wings game, then drank a ton Friday night until about 4-5 in the morning, and by the time saturday rolled around the last thing i felt like doing was a bar crawl that started at noon. I felt like total shit but toughened it out and suprisingly made until about midnight before i finally decided to go home.

We also made a trip down to detroit to check out the new MGM http://www.mgmgranddetroit.com/ they built a few months ago. It was suprisingly a lot nicer than i thought it would be and really had the feel of a vegas casino with one exception, all the degenerate losers hanging around. A large amount of the players we played poker with there all knew each and were just kind of miserable to be around. Somehow we got suckered into eating at Wolfgang puck's restaurant( i say suckered because ive ate at wolfgangs here in vegas mgm and swore i would never eat in his restaurant again) but this time my meal was really really good so i guess my hate for wolfgang is over for now. We also decided to take a break from the table and head over to bazoukis (strip club) http://www.bouzoukiclub.net/ for a while and saw something really funny. Im sure by now you have heard on the news of the whole scandal involving mayor kilpatrik involving taking city money, cheating/lying underoath, and a stripper that was murdered at his house during a party, the whole thing is pretty rediculous. Anyways as we are leaving the strip club we see this cop pull over down the road and 2 strippers get into the back of his car and he drives off haha, gotta love good ol detroit. That pretty much is my trip to michigan in a quick summary.



Ive been back here in vegas now for about 4 days and its been a pretty long 4 days to say the least. Im still exhausted/dead from last nights activities and its going to take way too long to type up what ive been up to so far since being back so i will do it tomorrow. A friend of ours(D. Lewis) is coming into town this weekend and staying at our apt. so im going to wrap this up and get some shut eye for what will probably be a pretty long weekend. Anyways check back tomorrow to read the rest of what ive been up to lately and im out.

Thats gold Jerry, gold!




I dont think ive ever laughed so hard at something from the internet as i did at this. This is from two plus two where people are making all kinds of fake poker posters which are pretty funny but this one is far and away the best. (if you are one of my non poker friends you wont find this funny) here is the link to look at the others- http://forumserver.twoplustwo.com/showthread.php?t=160195

im back in vegas with a ton to talk about but its late and i dont feel like staying up to post right now. Check back sometime tomorrow afternoon to see how michigan was and what ive been up to since my last post, it seems like i havent posted in forever.
