Halleluia

Halleluia, Halleluia,...last night i made my first positive sessions. After our return from our round trip to Powell, Monument and Grand Canyon (close to 1500 km driving), i took a shover and immediately sit at a table in the Flamingo poker room. The players were friendly and the game was pretty good. I did not had specific good cards, but was showing patience and waiting for the good spots. My first session went pretty good and made up to +250. I left the table after a drunken german entered the game. After some bourbon shots, i sit at another table and went down to 70 before shoving 2 times on a pocket 3s and set of 4s. I double up and after some losses, decided to leave the table with +120. My sessions started at 21:00 and finally went to bed at 06:00 am. Slept 4 hours and went to the Bionion for a NH tournament...well good run was short..1st out of the tournament with full against full (hit on the river)...OK accidents happen in poker...so frustrated, i went to the mythic Binion poker room for a cg...Big mistake...1/2 hour after left even more frustrated..got hardly fished by an asiatic. i got 2 pairs on the flop..QT4 (2 spade). checked to let him bet. he bets 10 and i cbet him with 50. call. turn a 9 heard. i bet 50 more and he called again. river..a f..ing spade. i checked and his shove...tilt tilt tilt...i called and he showed flush 9 high...should not have called but..... i was really pissed off. After that, back to the Flamingo for another cg session where i doubled my stack on a..full AQ...hits on the river..amazing game.

Another interesting daily tournament.


At the Aria Casino, twice per day their run a 100u$ +25 NLH tournament with a field average of 50 players, 8000 starting chips and  progressive 25/50 30 mins blinds.

What is so particular? Well, allvegaspoker states that the Aria Poker room is superior to the Bellagio due to layout, chair comfort, etc and almost at the same quality level than the Venetian for a fair and decent buy in.

In addition it seems that Aria have drafted the old MGM's dealers which are amongst the best in the city:  http://www.arialasvegas.com/casino/poker.aspx
