Great TR. Kabuto looks awesome.

GL on the 24 hr bet. The longest I made it was about 21 hours at the V about eight years ago. There’s no way I could make it that long now. Try not to collapse.


Keep the pics coming.

Alright got the 2.5 hour update at 7a:



Apologies for the short hand but here's some hands. I started up about 150 and am pretty much even now. Also did place some mlb bets so got some sports action today.

24 in sb limped pot 5way flop a38ss checks around turn 5x i c bb leads 5 mp makes it 10 I rr to 25 bb calls mp goes all in 17 more I raise 33 more bb folds and I beat mps 2 pair

Jj twice (won 1/2)

3b aqo into a raise and 4 callers to 60 no callers

Tt raise pre 1 callers flop kxx I cc a bet and fold to a turn bet (got shown a king)

I r to 15 kqhh from cu, bu 3b to 50, ep cc 50 I call and have to c f on a72dd

Ep is loose passive and bu had just 3b 72o literally the hand prior. Turns out this time he has AA

Raises w kqo got 3b by an omc small so I called and cf flop

Raised ato in cu, bu 3b me again I folded and he shows jj

2.5 hours in and I am sitting on 307 so essentially even. Joe is down a bit. Table is a lot of fun

Thanks for the kind words Bdywax I've enjoyed your past tr's too

What if one of you gives up before 24 hours? Do they automatically lose, or is it just their results to that point?

Automatically lose. Odds of one of us quitting is probably 1:2

Alright we've made it to hour 4.5 at 9a.

Events include joe doubling up with aa over aq on a q high board and me getting kk and everyone folding pre. Joe is close to even and I am sitting on right about 350 so +50.



This hand just happened, on a kt7ss board it got all in t7 vs a5ss and spades could not improve.

In non poker news joe is face deep in grand lux's juevos rancheros and I am doing a tour de juices. Already through carrot and pomegranate and currently working on cranberry.



Table is still fun

Alright folks we've made it to the 11a update after 6.5 hours of play. Sadly things have taken a turn for the worse, but the day is young and this is where the men separate from the boys. Here are the notes and some pics:

T8 in a 5way limped pot in the sb turns 2p on qt58dd I cr mp's 10 to 25 and lead the river which I don't like it's another 5 but he calls with jt and mhig.

Joe gets aa and flops top set on akq and gets 1 street of value vs jj

At 915 joe is in for 525 and sitting on about 425. I'm in for 300 sitting on about 350

Raise to 7 I rr to 20 with kqo and check check then check fold on t86 t

All in pre with akss vs kq and kj for 125 couldn't hold on a jack high run out



Lost about 200 with 88 on 872cc 6c tx vs 99. I should have raised flop but instead I check called flop and turn and value owned myself on the river, terribly played.

Rebuy for 200 so in for 500, sitting on 300

1030 and table has gotten significantly worse. Coffees being ordered by the dozen and discussions on the latest aarp discounts are prevalent. Not when I'm losing!

Joe wins a nice pot with a set of tens vs aq



The tour de juice is coming along nicely though:
Carrot
Pomegranate
Cranberry
Pineapple
Tomato
Grapefruit (no grape)

Latest chip count is joe has about 300 so down 225 and I've got about 325 so down 175

No we don't have to be, I guess misery loves company!

Also, no watermelon juice, guess that'll have to wait til aria. Watermelon + vodka is my favorite Vegas drink

It's more than just pride now I can't let you guys down!

Ok we are chugging along and have made it to the 1p update. Which is... 8.5 hours if I can still count. This 2 hours was a roller coaster, I was down to 200 at one point but am glad to report I am on the rebound. Here are the notes:

Lost 90 with 9t vs qq on t86 3 3, probably too loose of an open by me

I raise 66 in mp to 12 both blinds call
Flop 632dd sb leads 20 I call
Turn 4x he c I bet 40 he calls
River 10x he leads 25 I r 100 he taaaank folds. Dang

Bad news I have confirmed w the waitress that I have tried all their juices... not sure where to go from here. I haven't eaten since kabuto and was kinda liking the liquid diet. Suggestions welcome! I probably will stay away from alcohol for another 12 hours just to avoid getting tired or hungover. Not big on milk either.

Here's the final tour de juice list:
Carrot
Pomegranate
Cranberry
Pineapple
Tomato
Grapefruit (no grape!)
Apple
Orange

Won another medium pot with kj after cr the same villain from the 66 hand on a k high flop

Currently sitting in around 460 so down 40, joe sitting on around 375 so down 150

The race to the bottom continues!

Still alive as we reach the 3p update at hour 10.5. Next update will be over the hump! Good news on the poker front I am back in the positives, but joe is still struggling. Hang in there joe! Here are the notes and pic:

Rivered a straight and got paid off

Flopped top pair in a straddle pot and Rivered 2 pair and got paid off by joe - what a swing!

Not much else to report except the games were bad earlier but are on the rise.

I have broke into the positives sitting on about 550 so up 50. Joe is hanging in there with about 200 so down 325.

Next report will be past the half way point!

We've made it to 5p and hour 12.5! Joe swings up and I swing back. Here's the notes:

Just saw a scummy move on a flop of qj5cc a dude bets then the other dude straight faced while calling says "I have you beat I have 2 pair" then more yada yada about he has qj. So the first guy believes him and turn goes c c and river is a 3rd club and then the scumbag bets 35 and tells the guy "pots too big you can't fold now" and when called he turns over a flush. I know some folks don't think it's scummy because it's poker but I do because imo he reached outside of the game and went personal.

Things are looking up for joe, he just doubled up w ATdd vs j9 and he got some delicious looking quesadillas.





In a gutsy move joe has just ordered a screwdriver!

Just before the hour joe makes a huge hero call all in on 9t4ss Jx 2s. In the river joe bet 80 dude puts joe all in for 140 more. Joe tank calls with qj and beats Askx!

Alright taking a look at the chips things have definitely turned sour for me this session. I've got about 340 so down 160, joe is sitting pretty now with about 600, so up 75. Table is pretty good. Over the hump !!

Liked your ball games, so you’re probably screwed.

Joe made a rookie mistake with a screwdriver instead of a greyhound.

Haha I can't take credit I just bet what my bro tells me to, he has some cool spreadsheet model.

Ah yes the greyhound. If/when I start drinking that will be my first drink
