  1. 15 minute break in the Wynn poker tournament, so I set down $500 on the nearest craps table and pick up the dice. Put $18 on the bonus ($15 for me, $3 for dealers). Hit two points while also playing HG and roll every fucking number. Color up after 20 minutes with my $1500 profit and head back to tourney Second time I’ve hit the All this trip!

    No balance here, for sure. Figure I don’t know any of these guys, and they’re not getting any bet tells with such a small sample size. Here, I’m fine taking this pot down or making a draw overpay.

    Middling. Strong and semi bluffs would be like 30-40%. Checking most air
  4. Lurch replied to Lurch's topic in Gambling
    Yeah from a range perspective he’s ahead on the flop and perhaps that was his reasoning
  5. Possibly homemade

    If I were in his seat, OOP, I don’t think I’d lead out this river with any of my non boat 9s. I still made the call even though I couldn’t put him on anything I was beating, and I doubt he bluffs this board much either. He has 84dd.

    200/400/400 with 25k early in tourney I open LJ w Q9hh to 1k. HJ SB BB call. 4400 pot 9c7c5s. Check to me, I go 3k. Only SB (50k) calls. 10,400 pot 6c. Chk chk 9d. He 4k. Can I find a fold here or auto call/cry? He’s 40ish European. Nothing out of line so far

  9. Stupid expensive, but excellent meal at Javier’s. Thanks for the rec!

    30k at 300/500. UTG opens to 1200. CO (23k) is a pro I recognize but can’t name him. He pauses a bit before just calling. BTN calls. I 3b BB to 5500 w JsJc. Only CO calls. 14,200 pot 9h7d2s. Nothing scary. Want to keep him in. Bet 5k. He pauses again then calls. 24,200 pot Qc. Figure I can get another bet on the river, so I just check. He takes a bit then jams 12,500. I call. 49,200 pot. He shows JTdd. I’ve got him good. 8x. Son of a bitch! Work my stack back from 6k to 15k. Get back from break to 400/800/800. Folds to me in CO w 77. I jam and get called by AKo. Basically the inverse of my satellite final hand earlier, except he hits both of his cards and I’m out. I’ll probably try this one again tomorrow in Flight B.
  11. Already over $1M raised
  12. Lurch replied to Lurch's topic in Gambling
    Tight. Everyone was competent and not gambling. $1500 max buyin and almost all had it Enjoyable room though their chairs are getting tired. Frankly, everyone seems too good this trip
  13. Lurch replied to Lurch's topic in Gambling
    0-2 in the satellite. Turned quads early for 2k into my 10k stack but couldnt get anything else going. Got AK in vs 99 with 20 bigs left each but missed. Out Good news is it allows ample time to join Wynn $1M in lvl 4. $1100. 30k chips at 200/400/400. LFG
  14. There’s waldo
  15. Lurch replied to Lurch's topic in Gambling
    $1100 satellite. Started w 10k but it’s going fast w 20 min levels and I’m down to 8k in lvl 3, 200/300/300 Aggro opens UTG1 to 700. He’s played like 80% of hands so far so he quickly earns two calls. I complete SB w 74hh. BB folds. 3400 pot K74 rainbow. Check to UTG1 who makes it 1k. MP calls. I jam 7300 into 5400 pot. He snaps. MP folds and I get to see UTG1s cowboys. GG WP see you tomorrow No other well timed tourneys today so I’m immediately breaking my plan and am off to Wynn to try to earn it back in $2/5. Stupid game
  16. Lurch replied to Lurch's topic in Gambling
    70 mins to register for the $1100 mega. WSoP: Whete dreams go to wait in line to die.
  17. Why don’t stoplights automatically reset after they’re knocked out in a storm? If they can flash red, they’re not missing power. It seems they just need the program to restart
  18. It’s not the $, it’s the STREAK. I blew the streak for nothing
  19. Fixed a pool leak in September. Have not added a single drop to it since (Jax gets a lot of rain) and was quite proud of my streak. Pool guy left a note this morning telling me I needed to add water, so from 11an to 1pm I added about 2”. At 2pm, the skies opened up. By 5pm it was done and my pool is so full I’ll need to drain it tomorrow. Totally deflated
  20. I land at 8am Monday morning. It’s going to be crazy, I’m sure
  21. Lurch replied to tx 3 putt's topic in Cloak Room
    Yeah. It’s pretty fucked up.
  22. Lurch replied to tx 3 putt's topic in Cloak Room
    We did too. ‘88-90 in Spring TX. I always thought it was weird because I’m pretty sure most of us were Baptist and we didn’t do the whole Lord’s Prayer at church. Many of my relatives strongly believed Catholics weren’t even real Christians. I know I sure as fuck wasn’t having that conversation with our head coach though, so I just mumbled through it with everyone else while doing that whole head-bowed-but-eyes-looking-around thing

    Just got around to planning out my Vegas trip next week, and the tourney options are incredible! Best I've seen during WSOP. I'm really curious how they've managed to find enough dealers to service all of these tourney series at the same time, particularly at the Wynn where their standards seem to be a bit higher Land early on Monday morning and will take the first of two $1100 stabs at satelliting into the Main Event at 1pm. If I miss, I've got the second shot on Tuesday at the same time. Depending on how those go, I'll have a TON of other options Tues through Sunday, including $1100 dailys at Wynn and Venetian, $400/600 dailys at Aria, and a $1700 multi-day Mystery Bounty at MGM. Historically, I'd mix in a bunch of cash games as well, but now that I play BestBet nearly every day in Jax, I'm inclined to just skip that on this trip and make it purely about tourneys, unless I think I need to refill the bankroll a bit given that my expectation to cash in these tourneys is fairly low.
  24. Mexican food in JAX is so incredibly bad that I actually look forward to getting it in Vegas. The joint in NYNY is cheap-ish and hits the spot every time
  25. I’d guess I’ve taken a dozen trips to Aria in as many years, and I didn’t realize they had a Mexican joint. I had to look it up on their property map and see now it’s the place I’ve always enjoyed the people watching while playing craps! It occurs to me I’d never considered what everyone was always waiting in line for. Guess I’ll actually have to go in their next week…
