Avoiding the mob ...

While all the rabid poker players are battling for those elusive
bracelets, others chill in the Rio's Starbucks.

The Venetion

Trip Kings ...

Flopped trip kings. I had K Q off in the cutoff. No pre-flop raise.
Checked around to me. Bet two thirds pot. First to act raised me
(check raise). I eliminated JJ and AK, as I am sure this player would
have raised these hands pre-flop. I felt I had the best hand. There
was a flush draw on the board, so I pushed. He called instantly and I
thought I had miss red the hand. He had the same hand! We chopped.

Big Hit ...

Flopped second pair heads up with an Ace kicker. Check-called. Turned
two pair. Check-raised. Ended up he had top two. Lost 40% of stack.

Lawyers at the WSOP!

I just arrived in Vegas, and just registered for my first event. The
contract I had to sign made the Windows License agreements look like
the GPL!
