Killing time before check in - surprisingly good food:





Went to Bellagio, played for an hour, won $60 in a terrible game. Over to cosmo and room was ready.



Nice room, big lounge area I'll never use.

Off to Aria, going to try to play PLO. I suck and have played maybe twice in a casino ever. Should be fun!

Weird - on my phone the pics look fine but my comp they looked sideways. Disregard my earlier comment I guess, and good luck! Try a vodka with watermelon juice at the aria that's the best drink in Vegas!

James McManus finished 5th, despite butchering some hands in epic fashion. Then again, the book in itself is a fun read into just how much poker theory has changed since then.
The original magazine story was in Harper's, called "Fortune's Smile" in 2000. I actually prefer this to the longer version in the book.

It was selected for the Best American Sportswriting 2001 compilation. I remember reading this and it inspired me to start playing poker, a couple of years before the Moneymaker WSOP.
