After Christmas Delight
My buddy and I try to go to Vegas at least twice a year. His wife still had never been. We got comped rooms at Bally's between xmas and nye, finally I am going to play poker in Vegas!!I'm a big blackjack guy and he's a big craps guy.
Can't wait for my first buy in at Bally's tues morn. Tourney is sold out. Actually, they at least should tell the players how to line up for their buy in.Players were lined up in two directions and the manager waited until the last second to tell us which way to line up.(Manager is a very big guy!)Hour later tourney starts, cold to start, pull 4 hands in a row and knock out 5 before the break. Get knocked out 2 before final table, playing well.
Play in a sng at IP later thar night, winner take all, make it to final two, other player has mercy on me as I am ss against huge stack and gives me buy in back, I'll take it!
Next day, Aladdin for the breakfast tourney, great tourney by the way. Get put all in after four hands, I have KK, he has QQ. Flop is KQ4.Im not in until after flop. Turn is 4, River is K, Bammmmmmm!The dealer actually calls for me to get payed for a jackpot, sorry no luck there. I get knocked out much later(close to a cash)pushed in again with KK against 99. Flop KJ7 Turn 8 River(you bastard!) 10.
Sng at Luxor next day, knocked out quick, then to Paris for 1/2 nl win 170, go back to the wife and lose everything on the bj tables at ballys.
Back in March for a golf tourney( I'm a golf pro),no wife, I will be playing poker only this trip. Can't wait to play at Ceasars!
