Hello again poker fans. I've been busy this summer. Been to Vegas a couple times. The last time was for the WSOP main event. It was a blast, but you can't really expect much when there are 6300 other players to beat. I finished around 3000.
I've played in just a few of A.P.'s big weekend tourneys so far. I finished 17th out of 585 on Sunday, Aug. 26. Cashed for $930. I just played pretty straight-foward poker early on, letting all the crazies knock each other out. Towards the money bubble I started getting more aggresive and built up a good sized stack. Then I took a couple hits and got low on chips. Pushed all in for 6 times the blind with the first ace I saw(ace-5). I got called with AK and lost. I Hope to find time to play in more of those. The same day I played on a couple cash tables and won a couple hundred. I like the Jackpot tables. The allure of hundreds of thousands on a bad beat is too strong for me to pass up trying.
I'm gearing up for Aruba on Oct. 2nd. That should be a good tourny. I will be in the poker room most of the time, but hope to enjoy a little bit of Aruba too. In the mean time I'm catching a ride in my buddies motor home down to Tunica, Mississippi for 4 days. WSOP circuit event. A bunch of small buy in tourneys. I've always done well down there, and I want to keep in good practice playing live before Aruba gets here. And they usually have juicy cash games going on.
After that I think I'm going to Niagra Falls in December for a WPT event.
Then, after the new year there are tournaments everywhere, so I'm not sure exactly where I'll be. Till next time hope you all tear them up at the tables.
