I won't bore anyone with the travel details, other than the flights went smooth, the rental car facility is top notch Summer Bay Resort is a nice place to stay and we were out there between 6/10-6/16. On to the poker. 6/11 played at the Hard Rock to try to qualify for the 11am freeroll, lost my $100 buy in after top two pair were rivered by an inside straight draw after 30 minutes of play. Later that afternoon went to Tuscany and played 2/4 Limit, ended up losing my $40 buy in after being beat by larger two pair. No poker after that for the day. 6/12 didn't play poker due to a timeshare update and wanting to make sure I caught game 7 of the Stanley Cup finals, unfortunately my beloved Red Wings didn't win. 6/13 played at the Hard Rock again in the morning lost $30 qualifying for the freeroll. The worst part was I sat on the wrong side of a drunk guy and really didn't catch any cards against him. The freeroll was fun, quick structure, but worth the $10 spent. Got to the final table and all but one person was willing to chop, got knocked out in 7th out of the money after pocket queens were busted by pocket sixes. 6/14 played in the Binions 11AM tourney, another quick structure but it was fun. Tripled up to go to the final table after pocket kings knocked out two players. Finished 5th for $135 after pocket queens were busted by pocket 9's. Later played in the TI headhunter, didn't get any bounties and pocket queens got beat everytime I played them and each time differently. Got crippled after my pocket queens were beat by Big Slick on the flop. Great tourney will play in it next year. 6/15 Planet Hollywood 2PM tourney was card dead the whole time ended up rebuying just before the first hour was up. Still came up card dead, oh well at least I didn't get queens busted. Needless to say it was a down trip, but it was fun.
