grandma, however, was god awful and 4 bet 15k covering and all-in forcing a guy w/ 99 to fold...only to table T8o. she looks down and says "oh gosh - i thought i had two tens" kid w/ the 9s was pissssssssed. obv shes a pro and it was some insane meta game thing that is above my pay grade.

i may have played with u, had the hot chick from chicago to my right when i moved to new table and then busted aa < qq and aj < kq, were u at that tbl?

yes - you were 2 to my left (next to chicago girl, no?) if i remember, you had boatloads of chips and got ultra cooled off when your AA < QQ on Qxx flop guy insta calls "i have a boat" and then you got your remaining chips in shortly after to see a K on the turn?

What night is the party? Tomorrow night? If someone got two extra passes, I wouldn't mind paying a little for them.

you can get bananas from the room service menu. you will see it in the breakfast section. its actually a banana with nuts but im sure you could just ask for a banana straight. Does this help at all?

If you haven't read Tucker Max's "I hope they serve beer in hell", get it and read the trip to Vegas story. Try to do this before you go to the party at Tao.

Wish I was there with you guys... GL to ya'll...

What, no discussion of the ESPN article (ok, blog entry) that FTP is pulling out its pros from NAPT? On the plus side, it makes me a lock to be able to register very late.

See for yourself here - http://sports.espn.go.com/espn/blog/...898&name=poker

Um, I wanna trust Gary, but a) I think he is confusing FTP's new policy on red pros playing Stars SATELLITES for things like NAPT and b) my roommate at the Venetian is a red pro who is planning on playing the event so I'm sure it'll be news to him.
