I cashed in the $2k, but shortly after we were in the money, got Ace-Queen all-in against Ace-Ten for a 45k pot. The Ten was in the door. That left me with 13k. A couple hands later, I shoved Ace-Four suited and the same guy who spiked the Ten on me woke up with Aces.

Fun game.

I just picked up a plane ticket to head home on Tuesday. I’m not sure if I’ll come back out between then and the Main Event, but I’d say odds are I won’t at this point. It will be sorta painful sitting at home for three weeks missing out on a lot of action, but I gotta feel pretty good about having come out here and taken a shot in 5-6 events even if it doesn’t work out. Whether or not I come back before the Main Event could change if I hit a nice score in my last few days here.

Right now the only tournament I’m fairly certain to play is the $2,500 six-handed event on Monday. Everything between now and then is up in the air. I might try to get in tomorrow’s $5k if I can sell off enough pieces of myself, but I’d say that’s pretty unlikely meaning I’ll play the Caesars or Venetian $550. Sunday I’ll either play online, the Caesars or Venetian $1k, or quite possibly nothing.

As for tonight, I’m going to take it easy, catch up on a little work, and maybe meet up with Seb from our poker forums later for something social.

Thanks for reading.
