End of a Boyd Era (10/23-10/27) Attempting Live

It was a good time for match plays. Forgot the pic earlier. I wish i had grabbed a pic but hit back to back quads on bonus.

 

Love it when the matchplays come through. My ACG matchplays at D and GG did not go well this year.... But I got the casino back when I played WOF and video poker at Vue bar!

 

Healthy lunch!! Well, tastes good anyway.
Headed to golden gate for a 2-1 on 1st blackjack coupon.

 

A guy was at coney dog in scrubs so it has to be healthy!! Also, i sat and listened to a guy talk to his table about his gall bladder and kidney stones while i ate. Why? It was a monologue that nobody wanted to hear. At least not while eating.

 

My go-to meal whether its lunch/breakfast/dinner.

 

I hit a bj on my 3rd hand so time to move on. In the plaza to try to establish myself. I've had two quads in 10 minutes. Both flopped. This is the 2nd one.

 

You did good to hold the ten. My wife asks what’s the worst thing that could happen if you draw—obviously it would be drawing another nine!

 

She would be right once upon a time.

In the late 1930s, the United States Playing Card Company was one of several manufacturers to introduce a 65-card deck. In addition to the four established suits, the packages contained a fifth: the eagle.

Kinda thinking this suit lost popularity after WW2

 

Ended the evening in a poker tournament. Placed 5th but only top 3 got paid. Went to the vue bar and this is the highlight. The last 2 progressive stright flushes have been flopped.

 

If the gravy is good on everything else, why not an omelette?

 

That might be the best omelette I've had. Gravy on everthing!!

Was hitting nothing and then within 3 hands of each other....

 

Always funny to me when this hits after missing so many draws.

 

Rather you get a Royal than 4 Aces though! Good luck on the final push!

 

I spent the final evening at a poker tournament in the Orleans. I ended up bubbling after building a large stack early. Very frustrating.

I came home a winner by enough to cover the airfare for my trip next summer for the wife and I so I will consider it a win. I ran through roughly $16-20k per day in VP play with no royal so being a winner at all is pretty remarkable. I realized that I miss the coupons that we normally use on our summer trip. The coupon at the D turns into $100 free play at the end of the day so the trip could have been $200 more profitable. Oh well, I guess there is a reason that they limit them.....

Thanks for following along. I've been on my phone and didn't realize the pics were so massive on PC.
