I've definitely walked through the conservatory a few times in the middle of the night as a break from a game at Bellagio. Great way to refresh.

While the other guys are crushing various formats, let me make a quick update about my day so far.

Started it with a very short workout in the gym, before heading to Flamingo where I had booked a shave. Price was completely outrageous, but I guess that's my fault for not checking yesterday when I booked it. Happy with the result regardless.

Went out to find Enhanced who was crushing souls at Aria. Standard picture on my way there:



Bit grey out this morning and a bit windy, but better now.

Wait list at Aria was unfortunately too long, so didn't bother hanging around waiting. Instead went back towards MGM. Found this on the way:



I sat down in a $1-$2 game at MGM, and played in it for 2.5 hours. Not much to write home about though. This was the high point:



However, shortly after this I got in AK in very uninteresting fashion. A shortie raises to $10, I make it $31, and he pushes for $78. Obviously call, and we have a flip vs TT. After the Q-T-Q flop we didn't have a flip.

Although not too many huge pots, I am once again very happy with how I played. The two times I had big hands (98dd on Q-9-3-9 and AThh on T-8-3-2 with two hearts) opponents folded to my turn-bets. In the end cashed out for the impressive profit of...

$1 USD

Had I won the flip we would obviously have been looking at a decent $160 profit, but that's whatever. Sometimes I win, sometimes I don't.

Playing the $125 8-game with Enhanced at The Orleans tonight; by now a staple in my Vegas visits. Don't have any huge hopes for cashing it, but we'll give it a go. Might find another cash game before heading out there.

First of all, congrats to MuckPls for that nice emergency bankroll infusion

My evening - 9th place in the $125 8-game at The Orleans with 6 places paid..

(fun tournament, but somewhat irrelevant when you are that close)

Also played a cash game at Ceasars before that, for 1.5 hours or so. Started decent enough and was up a bit when there is a raise to $10 from MP, I call behind him with 55, and the big spot at the table makes it $40 with around $150 behind. The original raiser calls ($205 behind), and I make a somewhat questionable call as well (not really deep enough to set-mine).

I did however manage to mine a set, with the 8-5-3 board. The fish moves all-in for $150, second player calls, and I obviously reship. Nice spot for a lot of chips, but a T on the river gave the fish a higher set with his TT. Needless to say he cashed out two hands later, while I only won the small side pot.

Later there is two limps, and I complete SB with J7dd. Flop comes T-9-4 with two diamonds. It checks to the female player on the button who bets $10. I debate raising, but decide it will look stronger on the turn. A sticky player in BB calls as well. Turn is another 4. I check, BB check, and button bets $10 again. I think this is a great card, as I can have a 4 from the SB, and the same bet as on previous street is almost always weakness. Furthermore, I have a great draw to fall back on in case I get called.

All things said, I make it $35 and get min-clicked by BB to $70. Ooook, guess he have the 4 then, but not folding for that prize. I call, but brick out river which comes a K. I check, he bets $100, and I have to fold. He shows K4o.

It goes further downhill when the female player from last hand limps MP for $2, and I make it $10 behind her with JTo. Obviously a bit light, but not terrible. The sticky player from last hand calls, and BB as well. Flop comes K-T-7, and I bet $19 with clear nut advantage here. Plus, I don't just want to check and have button lead out and not being sure where I stand. Both players call, which is not ideal.

Turn is a J, which is a bit of a weird one. 89 and AQ gets there, but at least the latter seems a bit unlikely. Furthermore, both me and the board cover any better two pair holdings pretty hard. I decide to bet again and make it $40, only to see button raise to $100 and BB move all-in. Fairly easy fold then, and they both had AQ. Bit annoying that they both get there on gutshots, although I guess button's call in position is reasonable at least. And my bet on turn is perhaps debatable as well?

Also lost TP vs set a bit later in a medium sized pots, and decided to just take the hint and leave. Down $323 USD was the result this time around.

Too tired and a bit dejected to update the stats now, but will do it tomorrow. It certainly doesn't look good so far, but the weird thing is that I actually think I am playing ok. Just been very unlucky in some big/medium sized pots it feels like. But hopefully it will turn around.

Thanks to all the Scandis for posting! Reading on my own (non-poker) vacation.
