I am leaving Friday for Vegas and the World Series of Poker. It should be an amazing time.
My plan is to play in the $1500 no-limit event starting Saturday. Via this blog, I will send in updates. Stay tuned........

Bubble Boy AGAIN
I just played in the Bay 101 Saturday tourney as a tune up for the WSOP. This time I finished 13/89 players. Please comment on how I played my final two hands. We were down to 15 players and I was in the bottom three at my table with about 20,000 chips. The blinds were 2000/4000 so it was almost desperado time.
I was in the big blind when the guy under the gun went all in with his last 17,000 in chips. A tight and strong player two to his left came over the top for his last 25,000 in chips. All other players folded to me. I look down and see AJ off-suit. Finally, I paused and thought about it for several minutes. I concluded that at least one of those players could/did have AQ or AK or perhaps QQ/KK. With two players going all in before me, I decided reluctantly to fold. I evacuated my bowels when the flop came AJ5 rainbow and one guy flipped up A6 diamonds and the other guy KQ offsuit. The A6 held up and I was disgusted because I could have TRIPLED up and sailed into the final table.
Two hands later, I fortunately got two black nines on the button. One guy put in 15000 before I had to act and I insta went all in. He grinned and insta called with wired queens. His queens were good when no nine, straight or flush hit the board and I was on the rail in 13 place.......
