Home For a Day
Well, I busted out of the O8 event about 75th.
Great turn-out, very well run event. Binion's was also having a special on certain cash games. Rake was only 5% up to $2, and no BBJ drop. Awesome!
For the lower buy-in events, they aren't running any sats, but I was able to make my buy-in before the tournament, due to the softest ever cash games. They had 1/2 blind NLHE and 4/8 half kill O8. Both were some of the softest games I've ever experienced, and I have a lot of live experience.
Glenn couldn't make a hand to save his life. Poor Glenn, still running bad.
I made a huge mistake while at Binion's, however. I thought I had lost my seat cushion, and was scrambling around at the last minute looking for it. No go. So I figured I'd just use one at Binion's. No go. I guess people nicked them for souvenirs or something. They did not have even one. So I tried to ride it out on those horrific chairs. Twelve hours later I was very stiff and in lower back pain. I couldn't even fall asleep until maybe 4am, having tossed and turned for four hours (poor Glenn).
When I woke up on Tuesday I was pretty miserable. I knew there was no way I'd be able to play the HORSE event at Venetian. Jordan was going, and said that the chairs there were so awesome that I'd have no trouble without a cushion, but the damage was already done, so I knew I'd be in pain and dead money. My mistake. Won't happen again. Glenn already scoured the house and found the cushion.
I should have had Glenn run out to a store while I was playing, but he was running so badly, and trying to make a hand, so I didn't have the heart.
We are headed back up tomorrow morning for the Stud event, then Friday HORSE at Binion's. $29 rooms, can't beat it!
I went by Rio on Monday night and sure enough, first person I found was Max. He was short stacked in the PLO event, but still hanging on. Barry and Ted were busted out, but I saw lots of good friends like Greg, John C and quite a few others. That is the number one thing I miss about not playing on the circuit. The friendships I made are very valuable to me. I can't wait to see Ted & Barry next time.
Hope all are well.
