Last Minute Vegas BAP

Ok, so I'm making the trip down to Vegas to meet up with Comp, Moose etc. this weekend and do some serious degen MTT action and against my better judgement I thought I'd open up action to avoid Hobbes bitching me out on twitter for not BAPing.

I've got no giraffes to show just anecdotal evidence of some poker prowess or maybe it's just mtt rungood. The last time in Vegas (Jan 2012) I finished a Venetian Tuesday Big Bounty in 6th for $800ish. Two trips to Brantford this year have yielded 2 wins one a 40 person $120 freezout and the last one an 80 person $150 bounty...3 for 3 in casino tourny cashes this year for 5k in winnings. The place I can't beat lately live is the Holt Poker Tour although I do have a few cashes there too including a back to back 1st and 2nd in 2010(?).

I don't play that often but when I do I play for real...no Starbucks or Irish chicks for me. I don't expect a lot of interest in this BAP or care much if there is....I will promise though to play my guts out for anyone that wants a sweat.

So, the schedule I have mapped out includes the following...please note, it's a packed sched and depending on how much I have played I reserve the right to skip the Caesar's 10 pm Monday to rest...refunds will obv apply to anything not played.

Sunday Jan. 11th - 12 pm Wynn $140 Bounty ($25)
Sunday Jan. 11th - 7 pm Venetian DSE $200
Monday Jan.12th - 3 pm Venetian DSE $200 Big Bounty ($25)
Monday Jan.12th - 10 pm Caesars $85
Tuesday Jan.13th - 1 pm Aria $125


$750 total buy-ins, obv no mark-up. I'll sell up to 25% with 5% swap with Comp
1% - $7.50
2% - $15
5% - $37.50

If you want it, come and get it. Will Tweet updates on breaks as long as room has wifi. @LixHabFan

    I'll keep Comp's 5% separate as I offered a swap earlier before I knew I was going.

    That would leave 3% left for you if you want Wetts.

    Yes to the best of my knowledge I would be charged with donk crimes against humanity. But I submit in my defense...

    If you haven't been following my twitter feed you wouldn't be aware of the bad run I have been enduring so far. I will write a more extensive report later but it's been quite a smack in the mouth by variance.

    Well last night at the caesar's 7 pm was the tipping point. The chip leader has about 45k and I sit around 30k playing quite well. We have been battling and he clearly had his sights set on me for some reason. Numerous repops.of my preflop raises including a couple insta jams once where he shows 82. I'm okay with it as I know I'm going to catch him and make him pay eventually.

    We hit 500/1000 blinds and I raise with KQ spades to 2500, he repops to 6000 in the small blind and I call. Flop comes J72 with 2 spades. He checks which completely blindsided me as c-bet is 90%. I weigh the options between betting to try and take it now or taking the free card and decide I have to take a shot. I put in 6000 and he flats. ???? Next card is A spades giving me the nut flush and he jams all in and I break my wrists getting it in against his set of 2's. Of course river pairs the seven and he wins.

    That's when I excuse myself from the table say good luck to all. Steam walk to the car and head to Walgreens for some cheap beer and pain relievers (which I am putting to good use right now), get back to circus and drink said beer and head to a poker room (which is a loose interpretation in this instance) and donk it up within stumbling distance.

    Needless to say I donked hot and cracked every hand in sight finally clearing the table around 4:30. Don't remember many hands but my wallet indicates a profit of about 250 bucks.

    Now back to real poker as I take my last shot the 1 pm Aria.

    Yeah, but you probably played cash well. I'm a lucky drunk. :)
  • Such a short trip # of tourneys, easy to run bad.
    Keep grinding away and having fun.

    Seems Vegas BAP is just code for "will whiff tourneys and donk out cash profits"
