Re: Should I stay or should I go?

Just think of the tables every time you're dragging at work. It always helps me!

Re: Should I stay or should I go?

Work does not bother me really, been doing this job for 5 years. The working conditions without AC do. But yes, I am constantly thinking about Poker during work. Work pays the bills as I am nowhere near good enough to play full time.

As far as rooms go I have had the most success at Bellagio for whatever reason although I really dislike how that room is managed. I have had the least at Venetian which always seems well run. I am a walking cooler there for whatever reason.

I probably should play some 1/3 at the Aria as I have had success there in the past. The long lists lately have discouraged me. I have never played at MGM although everyone says it's great room

The other day I won a whopping 26 bucks at the mirage. It was a boring session. Played a session of 1/2 at binions tonight and up 170 over a couple of hours. I got my ears lowered at the el cortez barber shop and just ate at the heart attack grill. Not bad I say. I had the single bypass and a 24 oz Hamms. Back to the felts or to glitter gulch with that dudes 170 I can't decide.

They told me a bracket broke and the blower plus motor plus something called hm55. Apparently these parts destroyed themselves and the parts have to be ordered from he factory. This is in the portion in the attic. I am a hvac noob so this could be bs. My cousin is dealing with this via warranty/homeowners insurance.

Sounds like bracket broke destroyed blower wheel and locked motor,therfore burning motor,no idea on hm55.unless a humidifier was damaged but thats unlikely.Still overnight shipping and all max 4 to 5 days,assume the long wait is with homeowners ins,and brother having to handle.Gl luck possibly one of the Worst places to sleep with no A/C Vegas in July.

My profits over the weekend were wiped out and then some by two boat over boat situations. I basically got two outed twice on the river. Oh well. I probably won't play again until Friday. I think my routine will be fri sat Sunday from now on.

Re: Should I stay or should I go?

What a frustrating session that was last night. I was at one point up 100 or so and I think I only played one hand badly. I had tptlk on a j high board. I called down a short stack that I thought I had a tell on. He was betting pot on a j high rainbow board really fast and It made no sense. Of course he flopped a set and just outplayed me. That was the hand that brought me down to the 75 bb range against the previously mentioned fish where I would have never folded kk. He been showing some 150 bb all ins with pocket 10's at best.

I hate to be results oriented but damnit I was the only person who was positionally aware at that table. Everyone else was calling from anywhere and it is frustrating losing a buyin at tables like this. I have yet to be on the positive side of kk vs aa in Vegas and it is annoying as ****. Absent a good read I am always getting it in with KK. I also could have manufactured a win by getting up when I was ahead, but if you had seen this table you would say I would be an idiot to leave when I had near perfect position on the table ATM who of course paid me nothing.

negative. My cousin is shipping me a portable ac unit while he fights it out with his warranty company and homeowners insurance.

Swingy session. Was both up a 100 and down 100 but finished 40 ahead over 6 hours. A win is a win and ill take it. No interesting hands really.

So gross. After a guy bluffed me off a pot in a sick spot I wake up with ak in the bb with ako. There's a mp raise and 2 callers button and sb. I shove for my remaining 100. The button flips over aces. Who flats the button with aces. I reload and flop top pair with aj. A on flop. A guy calls me down with kj. no pair and catches runner runner nut flush. I hold 3rd nut flush and he is too stupid to value bet. Stuck 275 so far.
