Medical timeout

Well, this morning I woke up with my left eye swollen shut. For those
of you who have played in the WSOP, you know that eye infections are
common as they are so easily transmitted between players.

Luckily, we came across an excellent eye doctor on the way to the
clinic. Let me tell you: I will never go to a clinic again for an eye
infection. In fact, if you are in Vegas and in need of an eye doctor,
you should seek out Dr. Milak (eyesandopticslv.com). This guy is
terrific! He even gave me documentation for my regular doctor!

Now that I am cured, it's off to the poker room!

Guess where I am

Outside the best poker room in Vegas, of course.

:-)

So close ...

Well, after eight levels, I got my money in on the button with tens.
The small blind had A K. And, I lost the race. :-(

But, I cannot complain. I was very close to cashing. And, I made it
through eight levels. I also had agreat time.

The plan now is to hit the cash tables at the Venetion to start
building my reserves for next year.

WSOP#20 Dinner Break

Well, I made it to the dinner break.

I just found out that last year's defending champion (David) for this
event was at my table. He was eliminated right before the dinner
break. In fact, all but one of the people that were on the table when
I sat down have been eliminated. And, he and I are now the short
stacks at the table.

Played three hands:
- Q Q and took out a short stack that went all-in pre-flop
- Q 10 suited from the small blind (limped); check raised when flopped
two pair
- And for my donkey move of the day ... I raised on the button with A
10 offsuit. The flop gave me second pair. Other player checked so I
bet- he called. Same on turn and river. He had J Q off- suit for top
pair. Lost all the chips I made on the other two hands. :-(

So ... There are 165 players (or so) left. 63 places will be paid. We
still have four more levels to play tonight (oh boy).

We shall see ...at this point I will be happy to just make the money.

Oops

I just found out I was on the table with Clonie Gowan - and did not
know it.
