My understanding is that if you are dealt a max payout hand (so Royal on any game, or 4 Aces with 2,3,4 kicker on the Triple Double Bonus I was playing, 5 deuces on deuces wild, etc.) it will just ins

Damn. AA, KK, QQ, and JJ. Pretty sick. Another year making it in via satellite and clearing the first day. You miss 100% of the shots you don’t take, or something like that. Nice effort and appreciat

Should I play tomorrow or Wednesday? Thoughts?

1.  It's still relatively early Vegas time.  I would play tomorrow IMHO, but if you need a day to detox, don't be afraid to register for Wednesday ASAP.

2.  Remember to "turn off" your satellite game.  I had a friend two years ago play single table satellites and got into the main event the final day early in the morning.  He went and registered and was knocked out in the first hour because he was still playing a hyper-aggressive single table satellite approach to a deep stack tourny.

Lurch is always a good sweat. I need to start playing these satellites for the cash. I am king of min-cashes. Nice to get 10 times buyin for min-cash.


Yeah, my two biggest wins are this event but I get no hendonmob credit for them

Great job, Lurch. That was a nice little read. 

 

Sunday was get whatever you need against me on the river day. These two hands summed that up nicely. 

1/2 w/$5 button straddle. Call a raise of $25 with J10 off and another guy comes along. Flop comes J106 two clubs and the raiser leads out for $60, i call and the other guy calls. Turn is a red 8. Raiser checks and i bet $110 trying to take it down right there as i was up around $400 at the time after being stuck $300 and i was in no mood to lose more chips. Guy to my left calls and i know he's on a draw cause he would've raised if he had at least two pair. Other guy folds surprisingly and the river brings a Qc. So every god damn draw gets there. Single 9 and single K straight and the flush. So i check and the other guy checks with 89. Nice hand buddy. 

 

Against the same damn guy later on 3 handed i raise it $25 pre flop with A9off and the other two call. Flop come Q9Q and i'm first to act. I bet $35 and he calls and button folds. Turn is a 6, i bet $45 and he calls. River is a K and i check and he bets $20. Me and this guy play every Sunday and are friends. I just shake my head and throw in the 4 red chips and he turns over K9. Once again, nice fucking hand.

After that it was who gives a fuck and i ended up losing my last $200 or so. Bleh

So were the fire alarms blasting last night in your room? On the espn coverage, they were going off for a long time and nobody moved. Sounded like the announcement was something about them trying to reset the alarm, but it kept going off.


Yeah. Happened last year a lot, too. Clock keeps going. No one takes it seriously. The worst part was the strobe that flashed for a solid 10 mins even after they killed the sound. It was impossible to block out

Last time all my buddies had the great idea of staying downtown. Well I couldn’t get a free room down there so I stayed at The LINQ. $180ish in cabs and Uber’s is not my idea of fun. That’ll never happen again

Aria gave me four nights this trip so I’m staying with them. I could certainly do without the cab rides though

uh man, uber and lyft are your fucking friend in vegas,  like 1/3 the cost of a cab, and almost every casino has a rideshare pickup spot near the front.

50k chips. 2 hour levels starting at 75/150

 

First orbit, button limps, SB calls, I go 500 in B.B. w QQ. Only button calls.

 

943. I bet 800, he calls.

 

7. I just check and he bets 1200. I call.

 

2. Chk/chk and he shows K9. I successfully won the minimum. Well played, asshole (me).

Yeah I just need to do this. I’ve never ordered one before, so it’s just being lazy

This hand is played perfectly fine.  It's the problem with being OOP.  I probably go a bit more pre and a bit less on flop, but it's all good.

CO opens to 400. Quiet button makes it 1800. Super quiet SB makes it 5200, the first orange chip of the day. I look down in BB at TT. Nope. Goes back to CO who tank folds. Button makes it 22k. SB open folds KK. Button shows AA. CO claims JJ.
