Dan and I headed out to Rio late last night and pulled a big session getting in at 7am. I booked a $1,040 win in the $2-5 game. Building a huge pyramid stack throughout the night and cashing in 3 racks of chips FTW. Booooooom. It's GO TIME.
Got up at 5pm today played some pool and had a delicous breakfast(?) of blueberry waffles and Mountain Dew, best drink ever. Now chilling in the pool playing some cash on Full Tilt with Matt, weather is pretty much a perfect 100 at this time in the evening (7:30pm).
Spent a bunch of time on study yesterday, read a lot of The Poker Mindset, posted some comments on weaktight, railed a coaching session Brian was doing with Dice and picked Dan's brain a ton about live poker. Made a lot of adjustments to my game, a lot that Adam mentioned in his comments on the last post. Basically playing a lot more passively preflop and not inflating pots without a big hands, playing draws more passively, keeping a tighter image, etc.
Really not too much tourism or whatever going on, although that being said there are lots of big poker players at the Rio. On nearby tables to me yesterday were Devilfish, Raymer, Violette, Mortensen, David Williams which was cool. Anyway, we're all pretty much still in the mood for playing poker so continuing to play a lot and expecting to get burned out soon. Will take a couple of days off and do some tourism and drinking. But until then it's allll poker, planning on heading to the strip in an hour or two.
Suspiciously 3 cases of All-in Energy Drink have been delivered to our house, I think from a tourney Dan entered.

'Building a huge pyramid stack' is probably more fun than actually playing poker :-)
Keep it up man. Very jealous sat here at work. It's 08:57 and I'm going to have to start doing stuff. Doh.

Congrats on the big win dude! Keep it up and it'll be essence of badger all year round :)
Getting ready for new project 'goodness' in the office. I'm sure you're jealous. Shamone!
Glad you turned it around Barry. Keep on posting those wins.
