Not a Lot to Report
Like the title suggests there's just not much going on. I'll try to find some highlights.
I've received information from PartyPoker about what's going to happen once I get to the MGM Grand. They tell me a bag should be awaiting me in my room with various shirts & hats. Woohoo! I guess I don't need to pack much!
There is a reception for the players on Thursday night at their suite (I guess at MGM) where I guess we meet other online lucksacks, er, players & hopefully a muckity-muck or two.
There is another party scheduled for Saturday night at Studio 54 in the MGM. That ought to be pretty cool & my wife is looking forward to that. There is a dress code at Studio 54 so I guess my fat ass needs to try on the last coat & slack combination I wore, which was a few months back at my grandfathers funeral. "Aw Stump, there's no WAY you gained any weight since then!" Yeah, right!
I'm sad to report I won't be doing any drinking at the Studio 54 party because I play the next day. Why they decided to have a party in the middle of the start dates, I have no idea.
I'm sorry I haven't played in any blogger events lately, I've been busy with the family while my daughter's been in town. I know you guess miss my donation to the prize pool; I promise to donate again soon. Unfortunately it won't be at the Mookie tonight, I'm playing in a friend's tournament at his house. Last time I played there I took it down, so let's see what happens.
I played in a $100 home tournament this past weekend. We started with 5000TC, blinds at 25-25 & 45 minute levels. I love this set up! Any tourney with long blind levels I'm in. So what do I do? I push my above-average chip stack(around 7500 w/100-200 blinds) with JJ into KK in the 3rd level & IGH. I'm such a donkey. I raise & one of the only two other solid players at my table reraises. I talk myself into thinking he has AK & I'm willing to race this early in the tourney. If he has AK & I win this race I'm in GREAT position to win this thing. No way he has AA, KK, or QQ. Yeah i know he's a solid player but who cares? I'm not sure where I'm at in the hand so let's just shove it all in & if he calls I guess I'm screwed. <------Now what the hell kind of thinking is that?
I promise to everyone I know & love that I WILL NOT THINK LIKE THAT IN THE MAIN FUCKING EVENT! And if I do I will never, ever play poker again. That's just plain disgusting.
Well, I guess that's all from here. Get back to ya soon. Take care.
