Live from vegas
Finally I arrived in Vegas after 20 hours travel.
After I got here I hooked up with Mada1970 from poker.com and with him and his friend bags we went to The Rio.
I got signed up for the Main event, gonna play on day 2, the 29th.
Then we just hung around looking at the games and all the darn pretty persons of the female sex here. and there is a lot. *lol*
I got to say hello to Men "the master" nice little fella. :) and saw a few og the other well known guys(Helmut, Raymer and Moneymaker)
I must say hooking up with Mada was a great idea, the guy has no shame so we also got VIP passes to the websites stands in the big hall even though it was not open yet. Seems they award boldness here a lot.
We also hit the driving range where we got to drive a Corvette and a Pontiac Solstice, very neat cars.
Im so happy every single building here have Aircon, because its so darn hot you can hardly breathe outside.
Later Mada and I went back to the Sahara and joined a little tournament with about 159 people in it and here I got my first bad beat. *lol* Guy moves all in preflop and I have AA on the button.
I call him ofcourse and he shows J4, but but. 4 on the flop, a J on the River and I got my first AA busted. :( that halved my stack and after that my cards also died. With blinds at 3k I had to make a move with my A9 suit UTG, but I got called by the chipleader with AQ and I was out in 38th place. money for 11 only.
Now Im waiting to get contact to the poker.com guys and see whats planned for today.
More updates to come later.
