Happy Memorial Day
Went out to play a little 2-5 NL at the Bellagio the other night. It was Memorial Day Weekend and the strip was packed. It took almost an hour to make it the few miles to the Bellagio. Once there, it was about another hour to wait for them to start a new 2-5 NL game.
The room was packed with poker heroes. Jennifer Harmon and Ted Forrest, Crystal Violet, the Mizrachis… it was pretty cool just walking into the poker room, which was completely full even at 2am. If ever there was a poker heaven, it’s got to be the Bellagio.
I wore a lucky red shirt and took the 2-5 NL game for a $100 before jetting. Just need another hundred or so sessions like that one and I can put myself in the 10k event. Actually, one of my buddies is putting up three grand for three entries into the single table satellites they’re going to start running. I figure I have a good shot of getting into it with one of those… gotta get focused.
