My trip started at Binions right after my flight landed I stayed at Binions On Sat. and wend. nights and at Treasure Island. I sat down at Bionions in a 1/2 NL game and played well for 3 hours ending up over $500. For those that have not visited Binions you should. It is a very nice room. They are hte best poker room downtown hands down. You can tell they have redone the whole room. The one thing I didnt like is the bathrooms. They cram to urinals side by side so close together it makes you uncomfortable. When I am taking a leak I dont want to stand as close as these things are to another guy plus add in the splash factor. Yes they are that close. I took a nap after my 3 hous and woke up went back down to bionions and donked off $400 of my $500 win when sets were chased down by flushes. Lost 200 more that night at Fitzgeralds when my flopped boat lost to a bigger boat ont he river. I played in the 10k event on sunday didnt cash but did cash in the 10AM tourney. Went down to check into TI got into the cash game and played well for about 5 hours then donked of my stack to the nut flush with my queen high flush. Went to bed. Went to Osheas to see I head back down to the AVP at Binions and was card dead and went out in 5th. Played the 8PM tourney to get booted when I flopped a str8 from the big blind I checked, bet raise and then I pushed called by botom pair with a flush draw who hit his flush. Back to the strip. Played aladdin won a couple hundred over a few hours. I DONT like Mirage where I played and picked up about $1100. Sat down at a 1/2 game and was up about 200 bucks from a big mouth drunk with a fat stack of 100's in his wallet and his butt buddies. They started a 2/5 table which I dont like but wanted a chance at this guys stack. Took my money over and got in. Needless to say he donked off about 2 grand over four hours. This is why I dont like Mirage. he bought back in with 20 bucks on the table and I am unsure what they buy in max is on the 2/5. I was in a hand and coulrnt give 100% to what was going on but the jist of it was that he rebought in lets say for 500 dollar max and had the 20 bucks on the table and they made him take it off. Now here is a table with AT LEAST 15 Grand on the felt lots of action and big pots going on. He compalins his buddy complains and the floor is there and makes him take it off. The whole table was backing the guy up. Well you know what happens he takes his drunk ass somewhere else to play. Killed the game. Action slowed down and I left. Played at Ip and I am still waiting on my drink from the waitress
Food Reviews from this strip. Osheas has expeanded the poker room and now have tables in the back by the cage before Burger King. I didnt get in but it looked like they were using old Roulette chips as poker chips. Played Binions my last day and grinded my $200 buy in to 40 bucks where I had a lot of limpers in front of me and pushed trying to steal the blinds. 5 callers lost to a 8 9 who hit 2 pair to my top pair. This is where my problem from Binions comes in. I tell ther dealer I will be back in a few minutes. Tell him I am going to the ATM (A lie I had about 2k in my pocket) I really ahd to go poop and didnt want to announce this to the table. I went to Golden Nugget as there bathrooms were much better. I come back after less than 10 minutes to see they have let a guy change seats into my seat. I question it and am told there are other seats open and I can have one of those they let him move because they didnt think I was coming back. I said no thanks and went back to the Golden Nugget. Got into a 1/2 game after about 10 minutes. second hand I look down in the big blind to see KK. $10 raise with 4 callers. Bump it to 30 and end up with 3 callers. First card I see is Kc on the flop turns into a ragbow with me hitting my set. I lead out with 20 get a caller and a raise to $50. I push my remaining 110 in and get called by AK. Nice double up for me. A few hands later on the button I look down and see 88 and call a $15 raise with 4 others in the hand. Flop my 8 for the set but the board is Ac 8C and 3C checks around to me and I bet $35 and get reraised by the inital raiser. I have him on a AK or AQ and I push. He thinks about 5 minutes and then calls. All this thinking assures me I am in front. He never showed but the board paired on the river and I pull in another 300. I leave about 30 minutes later to catch my flight up close to 500 bucks
