Out about 60th of 177 runners. A good turn out for the Wynn. I'm slightly tilted about the ending as things were going smooth but brushing it off.

Highlight of the day, no joke, got Chris Moneymaker to call off on the turn with 8 outs (cooler spot but....) and he goes, 'Let's see if I can get lucky 'one time'!' Hahaha sorry Chris, I rivered quads but maybe next time! =)

MaxValue: $2610.30 - $275 = $2335.30

Wynn $550, selling 40%

So gross. Early for a 350bb pot lol, got it in on the turn 4 way with a set vs 2nd pair no draw, and a bare outside straight draw for a big side pot. And a flopped gutty turned 6 high flush draw for the main pot. River fills both the outside straight and flush to ship the main pot one way and the side the other. NH's gg gg. I'll be back down there for the 1k tmrw. Poker is fun, for everyone. Honestly not sure how I didn't have just one out with how quick the second pair got in there last haha, the action is good.

MaxValue: $2335.30 - $275 = $2060.30

Wynn $1070, selling 60%

Yawnnn, busto by the K7s flush draw, out around 30th of 133 runners after getting the 10k stack up to 75k to end the 200 ante level. Yawn. It was a semi-marginal spot, but as always nh wp gl gg. Semi-tilted, which I don't normally get. Poker.

MaxValue: $2060.30 - $802.50 = $1257.80

Wynn $1070, selling 60%

Went off to a weak start but then things got rolling after getting semi-lucky with AKss on a KQ9ss flop vs KQ, A turn. All was going smooth to the 600 level where I flatted a mp raise on the button with AA, where it felt likely one of the blinds may squeeze. They got out of the way to a 278 double red flop, I raise the cbet to have the black 56 jam say he'd put me all in, nh gg. 128 runners, out ~45th.

MaxValue: $1257.80 - $802.50 = $455.30

Wynn PLO8 $550, selling 40%

Gah PLO8 is definitely my favorite game atm and I feel like I have a big edge on the competition. The dealers also had a lot of fun today as it's barely spread live =). Sickness continued though as I was down there for over 10 hours to bubble =/, nice river gee gee. 16th of 114 runners. LOL live tourneys, gonna ship one of the last nl events tho ;-). Marking it here.

MaxValue: $455.30 - $275 = $180.30 + $28.86*.6 = $197.62

O the HPT at Red Rock miscounted(???) the prizepool and it was off by 9k. The difference was just sent to each player who cashed. I received a small refund of $28.86 for my min cash, where Max had 60%. So to keep things fair, the amount is added above.

Wynn $1070, selling 60%

Blah out, lost a pot with QQ on a J34cc flop vs 57cc shorter stack crai. 77 into 99 to end it.


MaxValue: $197.62 - $802.50 = (-$604.88)

I'm pretty disappointed that I am not going to be playing today's 2k event and most likely am going to skip tomorrow's and just play online. I haven't received funds and may post more details later.

Over all games played for Max, I have profited $5058.05 for his 'group'. My roommate profited $3761 for them and I handled everything for Max. In total they have given me $2998.75 in funds. I have always been really prompt in all of my handlings with him imo and am unsure why I am being put in limbo. Their system of handling funds though assures maximum assurance against those planning shady things also imo. Though I'm disappointing to miss events due to it. Hopefully he gets back to me soon enough to play the main on Monday.

I've gotten contact info to get funds, and it seems to be a little miscommunication around. I was told I would see his friend down there to give me the funds, although I never seen her around in the past couple weeks. He thought I also had her number but I did not. I figured it wouldn't be a problem as she plays a lot of the tournaments as well, but maybe she took a break. I will be contacting her soon for Monday's event.

All is worked out and was more just miscommunication. All is good.

Wynn Main Event $5170, 75% to Max et al., gogogo! I'll be down there playing my best, will report back later.

It was a rough day but survived to day 2. Can't win without that! Heattt later.

13,875 chips going to the 600-90 minute level. Started with 212 runners, about half left - 50k average. 318k to first.

Sigh it was a really tough table draw, probably the toughest table in the room and things never really got rolling. I doubled up with KK>JJ, but didn't get much else going until I busted with A10 big blind to the button opener QQ. AQJ flop 10 river.

I'll be getting my next live schedule ready to send out to Max and playing a lot online on the side. A rough stretch lately but yaya that's the way it goes, time to get at it more.


As for funds, I received $5500 in Wynn chips from Max's friend Kirill.

MaxValue: (-$604.88) + $5500 - $4846 = $49.12

Venetian DSExx starts today. Heading down for the first event. Selling 20% to the $350.

Cooler early n out. Bumped it up with AQ to a QQ2 flop n ran into 22 in the 150 level.

MaxValue: $49.12 - $87.50 = (-$38.38)

I'm letting this run into the red a little and may get funds later this month if needed. Feeling victories coming up though so we'll see how it goes! I'll be playing the $225s on my own and noting the others in here. It's a big online weekend too so will be grinding there. Next event included in this will be on the 7th.

Venetian $350, selling 20%.

Busto, sick game. Had the easiest table today but was crushed by the Q7o and 38s defends, then AQs<AKo aipf during the 800 level to end it. I'll be back down there tomorrow.

MaxValue: (-$38.38) - $87.50 = (-$125.88)

From 2-22-11 when I posted this, I just seen that actually Josh's profit was $3261 and $500 of that was seed money that was given by me on Max's behalf. Only $3261 should have been added and I'm deducting the $500 here now.

MaxValue: (-$125.88) - $500 = (-$625.88)

Venetian $350, selling 20%.

Out early, rigged.

MaxValue: (-$625.88) - $87.50 = (-$713.38)

Venetian $560, selling 40%.

Made the final table, 4pm tmrw.

Down to 9 of the 122 runners. I'm one of the short stacks =/ with 101,000, 25min left on the clock for the 5k level. ~1.8m chips in play, so 200k ave. Looking to get all of the betting discs!
