Full Ring Ballin'
Went to Lawrenceburg, IN for the WPT Hollywood Poker Open, didn't play but went with my roommate and my fellow uNL mod buddy udbrky to watch the final table and stuff. It was a pretty fun time, the casino was a damn maze to get to from the hotel though. You had to go through a long hallway, up an escalator, take an elevator, and go around a roundabout to get to the casino entrance. After getting to the casino, you have to go all the way through the back, down an escalator and all the way back to the other side of the lower level to get to the poker room.
I was tired by the time I found the poker room. I donked around in a 1/3 game and won ~450 or so, and slept the rest of the day. Woke up at like 1am and couldn't sleep.. grinded online and won a few buyins and went down to play blackjack and won ~450 or so. Lost another buyin at poker at some point in that time and ended the day-trip up around ~500. Big shout-out to Frank Calo, aka Frank1the1tank, aka the newest Leggo MTT pro for getting 3rd in the WPT event. Played really well when I watched, and got pretty unlucky against Carlos Mortensen in the end, but it was a really solid showing (other than the fact that I didn't bring any Leggo gear for TV -- but I'm pretty sure they'd censor it out as they censored out every logo from the people in the crowd, including the Apple logo on one of the tournament bloggers' laptop). Good run Frank, can't wait to see videos. That's all for now, not much traveling until this summer when we make the move to Vegas. -- Also, forgot to mention earlier but adding this in now, I've decided to try to stop drinking soda. This is day 1, and I'm feeling pretty tired but I don't think this will be that hard.
