Before I start, I promise I'll post my Day 2 report from the Wynn Classic main event before I leave to Vegas this weekend. I'd like some more feedback on my bust-out hand from the event as it was very interesting. For those of you who didn't hear, I basically bluffed off a 56k stack at 600/1200 and got caught by some very obscure rivered two pair that almost folded. So today I did some clean-up, got things organized, been reading up on taxes (which is depressing, because it sounds like I'm going to get waxed pretty hard) and finally planned my upcoming trip back out to Vegas for Bellagio's WPT Championships.
I went to this event last year for a few days and it was a blast since there are so many tourists who come to watch, making for a very exciting environment, along with some extremely juicy side games. This year, the plan is to leave early in the morning on the 5th and leave on the 13th. Here is the list of events I plan on playing:
Date / Buy-in
Sat, Apr 5th $5,180
Sun, Apr 6th $2,100
Mon, Apr 7th $2,620
Tue, Apr 8th $3,120
Wed, Apr 9th $2,620
Thu, Apr 10th $5,180
Fri, Apr 11th $2,100
Sat, Apr 12th $2,620
Total: $25,540
At least, that's what I told peachy. Although realistically I might have to take a break from an event or two to play the side games. They really are too juicy to pass up this time of year. Almost as sweet as WSOP time. Obv, Myth and FrinkX are going to be playing these events as well (actually more since they are leaving on the 1st) so hopefully we can deliver some more magic from San Diego.
Now you guys might be wondering why did I titled this blog 'How Good Do I Run?'... well it basically speaks for itself. I'm pretty sure no one runs better than me this month. Came up $54,500 total this month by playing less than 10,000 hands online and entering a couple donkaments. Ez life. Plus I have more POY points that mig.com, and I am going to make sure he hears about this every time I see him. Finally, about 30 minutes ago while I was booking my flights, a friend of mine showed me how to sign up for Southwest Rapid Rewards (basically rakeback for the airline I use the most). What the heck, I signed up for it. A notice to call a certain number appeared so I called the number and was answered by one of the Southwest travel agents. I tell her that I was signing up for their rapid rewards program so she figured it was my first time flying with Southwest... she figured wrong. For the next 20 mins, she is pulling up all my past flights and adding them to my new rapid rewards account while I'm put on hold... somewhat. She basically has the phone on her desk and I over hear her talking to her deskmate saying things like "Look at how many previous flights are on this account!" "Wow" "Oh my, there is another page of them" "Jesus" "I've never seen someone with this many previous flights and no previous rapid rewards account". Finally she gets back on the phone with me and is like "Sir, we were able to locate 31 previous roundtrip flights from the past 3 years, does that sound about right?" What can I say? I like to travel. "That sounds about right" I said, and then I hear her do some more typing until finally she gets back on the phone with me and says the following:
"Southwest is rewarding you with 5 free roundtrip tickets."
LOL? Ship it crucial! That pretty much covers all my trips back and forth to Vegas from now til the end of summer. As for other updates in my life, I haven't been playing much poker online at all. Been really lazy since I got back from the Wynn. I can point my finger at one huge reason why... I have a crush on a girl. It's totally like a high school style crush too. I need to grow-up, and that's about all I'm going to say on that matter.

I have learned from poker that being at the table is not a grind, the grind is living and poker is how I pass the time | |
