Decided to use yesterday to get the timezones adjusted. I managed to do my list of shopping, there are some stuff I always get when I’m here.
I skipped tournament and continued my second task, to document what casino gives best value for money if you want cheap drinks. (Timing how long you have to wait [...]
Due to bad internet it’s not easy to keep up the blog posting! To be honest I think I will not stay at Harrahs again. Sure, location is good and it is cheap – but if not for my earplugs I would not have any sleep at all. Internet is a joke and housekeeping missed [...]
It’s all about the cards! Tournament – many hours in…. I get a full house and was only happy when opponent overbet all in. But?! There was exactly one card left in the deck that could save him. A perfect 8 to give him quads. Well what can I say? I did not see that [...]
Yesterday tournament was a bit boring. There was no one to talk to (I had seat 1 and the guy next to me did not speak english.. or so he claimed ) A female dealer came to the table and she started to toss cards all over the place with a rather hostile [...]

I am excused. The night before I decided to get some takeaway from Panda. That showed to [...]
I feel totally lost! I need to do some serious replanning But being in Vegas guess I can survive that!
Checking in yesterday the lady at the front desk gave me a free upgrade to a premium strip view room. She was impressed over my Toby Keith card
The room is OK. View [...]
Windowseats are for kids, old ladies and travel amateurs! I never ever sit by the window in a plane. I like the aisle. Were you have one side free and can jump up and down without asking someone to move. Admitadly, this time a year, having the power to close the window curtain is an [...]
Happy to say that I played very well in my tournament. I do not get to say that often, but here it was true. I think I have found a new gear?
The table was good. A few tourists, a young guy that knew what he was doing, a Chinese guy that I played against before [...]
