Playing 100/200 at Bellagio tonight, I play a pretty fun hand. I raise Jd9d from hijack, SB 3 bets, BB calls, I call. Flop is Qd8d4s SB bets, BB calls, I raise, SB 3 bets, BB calls, I 4 bet, SB caps, both call. Turn is a pretty good card – Td for the straight flush no waiting, SB bets, BB calls, I raise, both call. River comes a small diamond, BB now donks, I raise, SB folds (88), BB 3 bets, I 4 bet, and he cries and calls with AdKd. All I can think besides how badly he misplayed his hand is that his LOLturnslowplayament cost me $1200! Poker players are very greedy.

Basic Vegas update is I am doing well in cash games, did nothing at all of consequence in the two donkaments I played, and having lots of fun meeting DC members, other LHE friends, and hanging out with Joe Tall at our rented house. Tonight I am playing the limit shootout, and Monday is the triple draw, which I'm most looking forward to. Aside from that I was home in San Diego for a few days recharging my batteries and now I'm ready to finish off the WSOP right. I also got an iPhone which is a fun new toy to keep me busy!
