Brag:
Beat:
Variance:
(only sat at ARIA for another 90 minutes after hitting that hand, went and got some food and drinks at Cosmopolitan)
- Arrive in LV, play 2 hrs at Cesar's, score table share of MegaBeat Jackpot ($1142)
- Play 1/3 NL the whole trip (3 days) and average $43/hr profit (30+ hrs)
- Saw some of the guys who feature table on TV (WPT/WSOP)
- Wrote thank you letter to several casino hosts, one responded with a two night room comp to use in the future ($400 value)
Beat:
- I have smokers cough and I don't smoke
Variance:
- At Bellagio inside of one hour, got cold decked and stacked twice. Spent next 4 hours grinding back to even and then moved to ARIA
- Get a seat at ARIA 1/3NL, wait for button to pass, hero has $300 behind him
- 2nd hand at table - Hero in the cutoff opens for $20 with Q
J after two limpers, button calls, blinds fold, one limper calls, other folds - Flop comes 22J rainbow, checked to hero, hero continues for $40, button calls, limper folds
- Turn comes 7
with pot $143, hero continues for $75, button shoves all in and covers hero for his $300 - Hero goes into tank mode and -everyone- is looking directly at him. Hero tries to take a basic read on the villain (50 something, desssed ok, has an alcoholic beverage), finally decided to go 'busto or robusto' and makes the call
- Hero tables his QJ on the turn, river is a blank, and villain slow rolls showing AKo that missed the river
- Hero scores a 15 minute double up and comes off looking like a soul reader (which is absolutely not the case)
