Big O8 starting

‎Didn't realize it's "big O" - means there are 5 hole cards, rather than 4. Same rules otherwise, let's go go go...

That was quick

‎Made it to level 2 in the turbo, but busted with JJ to a straight (all in on the turn).

Tourney Receipt

‎Not sure if emailing an attachment like this will post on the blog. (read: this is a test).

Back at the Rio

‎Worried about the long lines for registration for the Monster Stack event, and still on Eastern time, I came to the Rio a little early to register. Three minutes later I'm:

 - registered for the $1500

 - registered for the $75 mega satellite that starts at 9:00 (not part of the package, investors...)

 - in possession of a brand new Total Rewards card

 - not sure what to do for the next two hours...

The plan for the day is to play this Mega, then head over to the Golden Nugget to play the Omaha 8 event at noon. 

Arrived - hope my runbad is done...

‎Never a good plane ride when I'm the smallest one in the row.  

We're here, however, and that's what matters. Off to the Rio tomorrow to reg for the Monster Stack event.

Ready to head back

A week from now I'll be at a poker table... (oh, and testing that this email still updates my blog :))

Getting ready to head back...

‎One more week until I'm back at the tables...
