Good morning lvl

Finally made it to Vegas yesterday after 24h of transfer. The flight went good and our bags was waiting for us
At the baggage claim. Took a taxi straight to Vdara and checked in, all went very smoothly. Love the room so far.
After we had dropped of our bags we went to Aria and split a pizza at Five 50. It tasted like heaven after been eating
airline food all day long. Of course we went to the poker area, but the waiting list was long so we decided to call it a day.
After a shower we went to bed about 1am and decided to set the alarm to 9am. Unfortunately we woke up at 5 am :/ Jetlag is a biatch. So guess it will be o nice nap at the pool today

Today will probably look something like.
*Grocery shopping at Walgreens
*Check out the spa/pool/gym area
*Take a cab to Rio and buy ticket to milli maker (1B)
*Grind some Omaha at Aria

Some pics from the suit





Thx for all the good luck wishes, see ya at the tables

Love the way after flights like that, you normally bump into someone who is too tired to come out because "I just flew in all the way from Dallas..."

If you haven't found out already, the gym is pretty bad. Can't fault the hotel apart from that tho.

Hey! Another morning and we are up way to early. Woke up 3am today!

Unfortunately we didn't make it to the Milli maker in time. We felt that we had to play in the first round due to our Jet lag.
We will probably play some 1k or 1.5k next weekend.

So we went to Aria and played some PLO instead. I played 1-3 and lost 500. Not much to say about it, got it in with top two and jack high flush draw vs nut flush draw. Pot about 1.5k and we decided to run it twice and lost both

MrBicce didn't get a seat at 1-3 so he ended up at 2-5. He lost the first buy in right away but didn't have any plan on quitting so he hit the ATM and got back to the table looking for revenge. Didn't take long time until he got it in 3 ways and was back in business. After five more Budweiser he had racked up $5.500 for a profit of $4.400



Team Sweden is up $3.900 after day one

Thank you always fun to hear that ppl like our TR! Yes the Omaha have really grown in the last year. There were only one $1-3 table running yesterday and 27 on the list! They started another table shortly after we arrived luckily.

We played between 8pm mad midnight but not much to report. I ended up with profit of just $30 and MrBicce +$400

Team Sweden +$4.230

Goal of the day is to find MrBicce a new pair of Ray Bans

Yesterday's session started of good for MrBicce who got it allin in a three way pot and his top set of nines held up. For me not much happened the first hours slowly loosing chip after chip. Made a rebuy back up to $500 in for total $900 when MrBicce moves to a 2-5 table and brings with him a $1k stack. Starts to win some pots and now it's my turn to win a three way allin pot with a set of jacks for $500. Gets really hungry and tired when times past midnight and decides to play just one more round. Get dealt 8-10-J-Q double suit in big blind and makes it $30 to go. Two callers and flop comes 8-9-Q two hearts, me not holding any hearts. I bet out about $80 into the $95 pot and the player after me goes allin for about $145 and the player after him ships it for $215 We decide to run it twice and the first one is 4-6 black and second is Q-2. My straight scoops first pot and my boat of queens and eights the other one Nice to win those flips some time!

I ended the night with a profit of $800

When I leave, MrBicce is still playing but have lost some, so he is now in with $900 but have only $600 left on the table. One hour later he comes back to the room and mumbles that he shouldn't have drank so many Jack and Coke. Hehehe...

MrBicce ended the night $900 behind and woke up with a hangover

Must mention that I tried the Greyhound for the first time and it was a 3/5


Total Team Sweden profit: $4.130
