Weekend Wrap up...

My plan going into this weekend was to lay low and play a bunch of poker and thats exactly what i did. Well i wouldnt exactly say a bunch but it felt good to get back on the tables and make a little bit of money. Friday night i went back to the wynn to play some more 2/5 and things went pretty shitty. Ive been on a some what normal sleep schedule since coming back from michigan so by the time i actually got down there to play it was like 10pm and after just a few hours i was feeling kinda tired, weird. The game was pretty soft but i couldnt get anything going and after about 3 hours of play i called it a night stuck around 600.

We got turned down once again on a house we were looking to move into and its really starting to get down to the last minute. Unfortunately the people that were in there before totally trashed it and they want to rent to families now. So after searching for houses during the day i decided to hit up red rock after to play some 2/5 mainly because i didnt feel like driving all the way down and dealing with the madness of the strip on the weekend. Red rock is a really nice casino and only like a 2 minute drive from our place but the game usually sucks and theres NEVER a 5/10 going. I got there around 8 or 9 and the session went pretty well. I think i left around 1 or 2 and was able to book a nice win of just under 1800, not bad for 2/5.

I woke up today really looking forward to burning/donating money in the sunday donkaments but our real estate lady called us with 3 more houses and since our lease is up in 5 days and we have nowhere to live yet we decided it might be a good idea to go look at them haha. They were all pretty nice located in the henderson area and she is supposed to let us know tomorrow which ones are available. Hopefully we can get this over with by tomorrow or tuesday so ill know for sure where we'll be living next week. Also my friend (c. moeller) is leaving michigan thursday to drive out here to live with us and it would be nice to let him know he has somewhere to live when he gets here haha. Although i wouldnt be opposed to setting up shop and getting a room in the I.P. for a month haha..... A little tip for all you vegas newbies- Ive stayed at the flamingo,wynn,harrahs,hooters,frontier(r.i.p),caesars,a few others, and NONE of them compare to THEE Imperial Palace.

Tonight after looking at a few more houses i decided to head back to red rock to play a little pokah. The game was super dead but i managed to pick up a set of 4s and take down a decent sized pot. Good thing to because other than this pot i dont think i won another hand in the 2-3 hours i was there. I started to feel my interest level/patience starting to quickly disappear so i decided to rack up and call it a night with a profit of around 750 or something. All in all its been going pretty well since coming back. Im up a little under 3k since coming back on tuesday and hopefully i can get things turned around with a little heater and forget about that nasty little downswing i was on. Anyways this is getting pretty long so check back tomorrow to see if we have somewhere to live in a week and how tomorrows poker went and im out.


P.S.- Dont think ive forgot about burning that fortune cookie fortune haha. Ive decided im going to wait until we get a new place and do it there for a fresh start. STAY TUNED for Pictures/possibly video of the sacrifice to come.......
