Thursday 11th June.

Went to the Rio to watch a young internet player from England called JP Kelly who had reached the final table of a World Series Pot Limit Holdem tourney. After about five hours he succeeded in taking down the event and the first UK World Series of Poker win for two years.
Saw loads of well known poker players and ended up chatting to Neil "Bad beat" Channing. Met Moorman for the first time as well.

Went from the Rio to Caesars and played some $1/2 cash, after about 30 mins this one kid at the table said he was going all in blind every hand, he had about $140 in front of him, he went all in blind and ended up having 85 and getting called by two players one with KQ and other with A9 and he beat them both by rivering a straight. Next hand he did the same and ended up having 63 and beating 1 player and splitting with another who held 66 when again he rivered a straight.
Next hand it folded to me in the small blind and I had K10s and said to the bloke are you going all in again and he said yes probably so I said i'll pre-empty it and went all in myself as my hand was way above an average hand. He then bottled it and looked at his cards before calling with 99, the board came KK9 sigh, I miss my K, 10 or runner pair so loose a $200 pot. Then later on I make an awful mistake when I though I had A6 spades and had rivered a straight and re raised a chap all in only to find I have A7spades and had just a pair of sevens, oops mistakeaments, I always try to remember my cards at the start of my hand and never look back but it worked against me here. Then lost a 1010 v QQ pot when i reraised a loose player. Ended up $550 down.
Then had a go at Casino War at MGM, basically you have to beat the dealers high card. Won $100 before giving up and going to bed, very tired again today prob should have left poker and I wouldn't of made that silly mistake..
