Anyway hello. Today was interesting. Went to downtown at lunchtime... OOPS! No one told me it's rubbish except for Freemont! No good poker there at all and was bored after 30 minutes! Back we went to the strip. We'll save Freemont for another day.
After wasting 6 hours going back and forth we found a great game at Planet Hollywood. The 1/2 was quite juicy so sat down with $200. The way things have been going I decided to play it as tight as humanly naturally possible while making a few limps.
Well my prayers today were answered. KK hit a K on the flop, 55 hit a 5 on the flop, 88 hit an 8 on the flop, AJ hit an AJ2 flop... And people were betting big! I sat down with $200 and left the table with $640!!!!!!!!!!
So my total profit for vegas now is $450. It's incredibly how one day can change an entire weeks worth of poker. It feels deserved however. Take away my run today, but taking away my bad run, and the amount of profit sounds about right! I mean how often does people get quads beating them by the same guy twice in an hour? At least things have evened out a bit I guess!
Met a few great people at the table too. Some guy who's a massive Shinedown fan. I think I've talked him into going to the gig on Sunday night. I really hope he goes as I don't want to be a loner! Also some girl at the table who's a travelling pro. She plays poker every day without fail but never stays more than a few weeks in the same city. Vegas is a place she comes to every now and then to build up her travelling roll! Incredible. We had a fun chat when I found out she was Jewish too (and from Texas... !)
Anyway feeling good tonight. I've been frustrated with outdraws recently and felt like things haven't added up. Tonight I'm happy that they have! I've played good poker and I've been paid off, and that's what it's all about!
Also now booked tickets to go see the Blue Man Group on monday night! Managed to get seats right at the front, though Ponchos are provided due to the interaction with water paint apparently! Also very exciting...
Well that's about it for now... Still loving the place and sad there's now less than a week here. It's gone quickly, but 17 days is not too long in Vegas for a poker player! England (poker-wise) is going to be very depressing....
Speak to you all later!
Oh and Suzzi, look what I found:

And this is our window view :)
