Figured I’d start the TR as I have some time on my hand before my trip. Where to start…
Haven’t really played any poker at all (online or live) since my last trip in April. Was very busy with work, personal life and travelling with family. Really miss poker and especially cash games at Aria so expect some absolutely CRAZY long sessions.
We will have an entire crew of people this time, probably the most people I’ve been to Vegas with so will be a ton of fun!
PLO friend: flying in Tuesday next week and staying for 3 months, he doesn’t do TRs however. Will update if anything exciting happens, like when he won 15k at 1-2 PLO.
Me: flying out early on the 4th of October, connecting in Amsterdam and after a short layover landing in Vegas at 2 pm.
BigWhale: no idea how he’s flying as he’s lazy and haven’t booked tickets yet but he and his brother arrive on the 8th and stay until the 17th
Sicariu: some of you probably remember my Swedish friend from the very first trip report. He’s landing on the 14th and will stay with me until the 20th. Will he post? Who knows. If he finds the magic of 40% THC vapes then probably not.
Two more friends will be joining at the same time as me, they are not active on 2+2, but will be grinding most of the lower stakes tourneys in town for a month.
I will be staying with PLO friend for the first 1.5 weeks. First 3 nights at Park MGM, then Linq for 3 nights to bridge comps and then back to Park MGM for the remainder of the trip. Last 6 nights PLO friend is moving out and Sicariu is joining me.
If everything works out I’ll also go to Arizona for 3 days for a wildlife/photo tour and of course will have a TON of meetings and work in town.

A couple of months ago Sicariu was staying at my place in Malta and we went to the local casinos. I changed €300 at blackjack and got absolutely smoked, losing probably 10 out of 11 hands. Tilted I changed €200 at roulette and played zero neighbours for €100 and 0 straight up for €. It landed on 0 for €3500 and everyone went crazy:
