i've witnessed a couple lovingly pop each other's forehead zits on a crowded subway before

Fistfight in a blackjack pit. Knocked a few tables over.

I actually saw a guy getting kicked out of Aria 2 days ago. He was told to wear a mask by security, told them to **** off and was kicked out. He was the most scruffy looking person I've ever seen at Aria, fat guy with his belly hanging out and in flip-flops and like super dirty feet. I'm actually surprised by the crazy **** I've seen this trip.

Ended another session in the green, in for $300 and out for $550, slowly clawing myself back into profit land. Just a few more sessions to go, and motivation at all time high.

Siccariu, the lobster pic is especially for you for not joining the trip!

Stupid sexy Lobster ME.... Next time!!

After an hour playing, a woman asked for a water and when it arrived, took a small dog from her lap (which I had not noticed at all up to this point) and gave it the water.

This was also at the Venetian, but not as disgusting as yours.

Not heard anything about this other than your post. Twitter quiet, NVG quiet. Where did you hear this?

It's just a guess since they are distributing the promo funds. Someone mentioned that it's bec they will close, b I could be wrong.

I hope you are, if Vegas loses too many rooms then lists will be huge and the experience will be like WSOP time all year round, but games will be a lot worse.

Currently chilling in an airport lounge at Heathrow Airport in London. An almost 6 hour layover has become 7 hours after my flight being delayed.

The reason for the delay is that Air Force One is scheduled to land in Vegas this evening, so they are shutting down the airspace for a while. Hopefully won't lead to massive chaos and other kinds of delays.

Have been up for way too many hours already, after an early departure from Malta. At least the view over the Alps were nice:



Still an almost 11 hour flight (+immigration) awaiting before I can smell the desert air. But we will get there soon enough.

Not sure how Leon deals with cold runs at VP. He must be immune or something. I started the morning by going down To Aria at 5 am for 1/3 but the game just broke and I was alone on the list.

Figured I go over to the Bellagio but try a bit of VP first. 3 hours session, I must have had at least 40 draws where I had 3 of a kind or 4 to a royal but bricked. Despite that I managed to stay afloat for a while and then hit quad 2s, but obviously once again without kicker. In for $400, out for $455. Pays for taxi to Bellagio and my lunch!

Went to check out the conservatory but it was closed as they are rebuilding, that's my luck haha.

Now waiting for a 1/3 seat at Bellagio.

Whale,

Safe travels. Never occurred to me (but of course) they'd shut down airspace for the President. He's coming to town today (maybe here already) to view the damage of the fires that ran through a lot of suburban Denver last week. Must be going to Vegas after that.

Muck,

Leon deals with the cold runs by not having them. (J/K Leon if you're reading this--you've been honest and mentioned dead spots too).

Don't think I will complain about variance for a while. Sit down, third hand seat one raises to $15, I 3b to 45 with AhKh and he calls. Flop JcAcTx I cbet 75 after a check and he jams which we snap call obv. Turn offsuit Q, river brick and he shows QcTc for the entire ****ing world on the flop and turn.

I imagine he's in town for the Harry Reid funeral. I think Obama, Clinton, Biden will likely all attend so security will be OMC tight.

Bellagio is still punishing me, despite the stack picture earlier. 6 hours later cashed out - 240.

Played some VP again, got quad 2s without kicker again which paid for the poker loss, Bellagio buffet and taxi back to Park. We battle again tonight!

404, kicker not found. Another +300. I should just avoid 1/3 maybe

Taxi from Park -> Bellagio? You know there's a tram, right? I mean, it isn't a short walk but cheaper than a taxi.

I know, I'm just super lazy haha.

Daily donation at Aria started!

thanks for the consistent updates, it is enjoyable to follow. I know it's a lot of work

It's not really, I'm usually updating from the table. And since I am alone and bored I actually enjoy updating. Happy to hear you like it!

Still no kicker. Ah well, we'll take it.

Aaaaand we have arrived in beautiful Las Vegas! (to paraphrase Jeff Boski).

Super exhausted after a long trip and being awake for 27 hours or something. So no pictures and no play tonight. Will get some sleep instead, and the city will be ready for me tomorrow! I am looking forward to see what’s in store

Good to see that you are slowly getting out of the hole. I have been in a bad run as well. Just like you I am trying different rooms to see if it helps but just lost quite a bit in both Venetian and Bellagio today.

Hopefully you run better than I do and end the trip on a positive note.

Good luck to you, thanks for sharing. Always a good read.

get after it boys and run good tomorrow
