Yesterday and Today

Yesterday morning I took the photos below from the balcony and then went to bed, got up about 10am. Me and Andy finally decided to be proactive and go to the gym. It was alright, pretty small room that was cold because of the air conditioner. I was kinda tired from not sleeping that much.

We were planning to meet up with our friend Doug who lives here. Doug is 19 and plays poker full time, we got to talking with him through the online poker forums. We were going to meet on monday to drive 2.5hrs to an American-Indian casino (legal age in USA is 21 but the indian ones are 18 for some reason) but unfortunately he rang Andy last night to tell him that he had just been in a car accident in the car that was going to drive us to the casino. His friend was driving and the car was pretty buggered, but everyone was So no trip tommorow. I think we will just meet up with him locally in the next week or so.

Me and Andy had another go at playing 2/4NL last night and ran crap again, we didnt pick up any hands and then lost an $800 pot with KK vs AA. I dont think we are playing badly, we just havnt had much luck in the split sessions in the last few goes. I fell asleep after that about 12 midnight watching curb your enthusiasm.

This morning I got up around 7 and had a monster session online, playing 2500 hands and recording my biggest win in a single session, just over $1500. Crickets a funny game, I basically played exactly the same style as the night before with a totally different result. I played probably 15 really big "all in" hands in the session and in almost all of them my hand was a favourite and it held up.

About 11am we checked out of the plaza and moved just down the road to the golden nugget. The room looks alright, no fridge or anything which is kinda annoying, but the hotels here just dont seem to have the same level of facilities that they do in Australia. We are here for the next 7 nights. We will probably go play a live game tonight and then go bowling or something tommorow.
