Oh I almost forgot my session update. I have some hilarious hands to report.
I played 1 hour of 1/2 Big O and was up $435.
First hand I was involved in, I had Q9 and bet pot on the flop, pot on the turn, and pot on the river- final board is Q95Q8, I'm hoping villain can't fold a straight. She tanks... tanks... looks like she might call... she folds her hand faceup. She has A5xxx for flopped bottom pair.
This same lady later bets $10 into $75 on K
Q
9

, old man ships, I call with a double flush draw, she says "fold and hold" because she wants to show us her hand after. She had JTxxx!
Another hand she bet into 4 players on KT9r, and announces "I have the straight" as she bets. Everyone obviously snapfolds.
Good times.
Another funny/extremely relevant comment about the profitability of various games. There was one guy who sat at my table and folded his first hand. I immediately groaned in my head because I knew that fact alone that he folded a random hand made him like an 80% favorite to be the 2nd best player at my 9-handed table (it turned out I was right). I would NEVER get the chance to say that at any NLHE table.
Las Vegas total: +$30076, 70 hours.
