This week has been pretty lame.
started off poorly, which is why i havent kept an update. I try not to remember the bad beats.
anyways, after a poor start, I managed to climb back and am down 1 buy-in this week.
Because I managed to pull out some wins the last few days, I decided to play the 130.00 +50 add on tournament at the venetian.
There was 58 players, I played great until we were down to 30 player, and I had the following hand.
I had a stack of 10.5k and made a raise from Middle position with 7,7.
blinds were 100/200 i raised to 700.
button called and Big blind called. flop was Q,3,4 with two hearts. BB checked, i bet 1200. button folded and BB called. BB had about 4k left.
turn was a 7 of clubs. my perfect card, or so i thought. BB checked, I went all in and he insta called and showed 5,6 for the straight. I had 10 outs to make my fullhouse or quads, but missed and he doubled up through me.
I was cold carded for another hour, and we were down to 18 players and I pushed and ran into pocket aces. The aces held up.
Met up with JC Alvarado, aka prtypsux at venetian yesterday. we just shot the shit over some beers. He seemed like a very easy going dude, and I hope i can utilize his skills to help better my game.

Going to take tomorrow off , also starting some tai-chi/yoga classes. should be good.
