Been drunk for 3 days . Tonight is detox night and tomorrow i am playing the WPT 5 diamond main event at bellagio.
Moose said he will come and rail me....... I need all the coaching i can get.
If i make it past day one i will post up.
Even a fish can get lucky every now and then. Hope this fish can at least make out of day one.

Great seeing moose and meeting seekthegrail today.
Made it to day 3 . There were around 580 entries and we are down to 210.
I did have a really tough table draw to start the day with darren elias sitting to my left and billionaire cary katz who plays one drop every year along with pratyush buddiga who won the super high roller 2 days ago at aria.
I was super happy when they said our table was breaking .
So i move to a table and darren elias is once again in the seat to my left followed by nick schulman then dan obrian some random guy then daniel negraneau follwed by galen hall.
Oh crap....... This is bad .......:o:o:o:o
Managed to stay alive and ended the day with $78,800 up from $26,00 to start the day. So tomorrow i will start with around 65 big blinds which is a decent sized stack.
Have to get some sleep now.....

What happened did you cash?

Just had to catch up on some sleep.
So, i busted out late on day 3. I was down to 25 big blinds and got pocket 7's. I re-raised 2.5x and got two calls. Last to act was chip leader and i was first to act.
Three of us to the flop JJ6 flop checked around turn is a 4 with no flush possibilities. I shove we are waiting for about 5 mins for the next player to act when the chip leader calls clock and the player we were waiting for says he went all in 5 mins ago. Nobody heard him and and he didn't move a single chiip towards the pot. The chip leader says he has seen the this player play this angle before and instamucks. Player turns over pocket kings and river is a 9.
It was a great learning exprience and after playing with so many strong pro players i feel like i really played very well.
After busting i went for dinner with moose and seekthegrail and we ate in a nice veggitarian restaurant. Maybe they can post a pic or two of our meal.
Really looking forward to playing the fallsview tourny but first i am starting back at the gym to shed a few dozen pounds.

Sad to hear that we lose another one of us way too young.
My condolences to all his loved ones.
