Trip Report 4/26-4/29 Date: 04/30/07 Player: JoshFL For Rooms: Bellagio,Caesars Palace,Mirage,Venetian, Summary: Bellagio, Mirage, Caesars, and Venetion... 4/8 up to 15/30 LHE.. Content: I landed in Vegas and got to the Flamingo by 6pm, then it was off to the Bellagio for dinner and poker. Dinner plans changed as I decided to play first, lol. Sat down @ a 4/8 LHE table for 2 hours. Just getting my barings I finished only up a few dollars ($10 I think). Later that night I went back to the Bellagio for more 4/8 and after another 2 hours finished up $80. No specific hands to discuss as I was in rock mode. Friday morning, still no sleep yet really I ventured back to the Bellagio for my hand in 8/16 LHE. Here is where I opened my game up and after 3 hours I cashed out for +170. After a quick nap, I went over to the Mirage for lunch at the Carnegie and possibly some poker. The restaurant was packed so I headed for the tables. I sat a juicy 6/12 LHE game where there was this French couple who looked like a donation stand. The husband was teaching his wife how to play so you can imagine how easy it was to play this table. After 2 hours I was up +370. Most memorable hand came when I had 8/9 offsuit on the button. Flop comes 8 9 K with 2 hearts. 3 players, check, bet, I raise, the call by the third player. Turn comes a 3rd heart and again, check, bet, raise, raise, and I sit and say to myself... I am beat for sure and I only have 6 outs to fill up. But wait.. I am on vacation right? So I call the $36 bet and the river lands the most beatiful 9 of diamonds I ever saw. Dragged a nice size pot playing a bit looser than I would normally. After lunch I decided to go back to the Mirage Poker Room for more 6/12, but nothing was going on so I sat at the 10/20 table. I did OK here but I played only an hour and down -115. Guy hit the river card as he was riding AK all the way! Saturday morning I went to the Venetion to take pictures for my wife who allowed me to come to Vegas alone :-). I stopped at the poker room of course and felt compelled to give it a go. Last year my $200 buy-in got swallowed up in 20 minutes. This time would be quite different. I was in a hand again in the BB. 3 players again, MP, SB, and me. I have A Clubs in my hand and 3 unconnected clubs hit on the flop. I check, bet, bet, I check/Raise with the other two players calling my raise. Turn hits the 4th club... I check again, bet, raise, I re raise, the guy on my left raises and the SB re-raises again.. We ended up showing down the pot and MP shows the King and the SB shows the Queen... I trump them both with my Ace of Clubs and drag a $200+ pot! I cashed out up 4 racks! Next stop was Caesars... Nothing higher than 4/8 LHE going on so I sat in on that. Played 2 hours finished up about $50. Had AA twice on the small blind. Each time making just a small profit. My last session was @ the Bellagio where I sat in on a 15/30 LHE game with $500 and after an hour doubled up. I played another hour with nothing big happening and finished my poker trip up $1500. I was also to meet James Woods, David Williams, Tuan Lee, and most importantly... Johnny Chan! Fun trip!!!! Thanks for reading. |
