See the quote above from the pinned thread about the ME.The Day1/Day2 people have already had time off. The Day 3/Day4 people have today off, and play tomorrow. Then they ALL have Thursday off...and then everyone is into a single group on Friday.Better details are available in the other thread.bostonfred said:

So I'm out. Had 19,000 in chips. 400/800 blinds with a 100 ante.
I'm in MP. Guy right before me raises to 3200 preflop. I re raise to 10,000 with AKos. He pushes. I call. He shows pocket tens, which hold up.

I'm sure the guy would have folded if AF hadn't gone out last night.

Nice job Assani.
Don't like his call there, but what can you do.
You staying in Vegas for a while?.. I'm arriving Friday Morning and staying through Monday, was hoping to catch you or BF playing in the ME, but oh well.
Thanks for the updates, it was a lot of fun to follow along.

,S. Are you going back to the innernet, or will you now persue more live play?
Assani Fisher
Footballguy
online or live? If live, then I can't imagine why I would've done that. If online, then I'm often not looking at the chat when playing, so sorry.

Yeah, people at my table were way over-playing pocket pairs. There was an all in between two guys preflop...the hand: 55 vs 66. This tournament was by far the softest of all of the WSOP events that I played in(not including the 2nd chances or any other "side" tournament).
Assani Fisher
Footballguy
yeah I'll be here until the 13th. Probably going to be playing in the daily Bellagio tournaments most days. They have a $10K buy in event coming up there soon too, but I'm not sure if I can afford that at this point.

No real great story to tell from last night, but I do have a few decent pics from throughout this trip....won't mind sharing once I put them up on my photobucket page.Unlucky AF, hope you got some last night as a consolation prize, and btw...

Congrats on a great run Assani, although I'm sure it's small consolation. If you don't mind me asking, do you know approximately what your net gain/loss has been during this visit to Vegas?

I would say that I'm down probably around $3000-5000 in poker and another $5000 or so spent on random partying and crap.Much like how I was after playing in the World Poker Tour, I'm extremely motivated right now...something about sitting and playing with the best makes me determined to get to that level. If you remember, thats when I started my first quest and started out playing great poker and winning a ton. I think that I'm going to 4-6 table $10/20 NLHE when I get back to NY. The goal is to get my poker bankroll over $100,000. Then I will move up to $25/50. Its going to be tempting to not move up sooner because I crave action. However my friend Robert(also a poker pro) is lecturing me to be better about bankroll management. I might consider doing another "quest" or at least posting key hands and a log of my results here.

I would call that min. raise with any two cards since I was being offered 6-1 pot odds(and most likely 7-1 pot odds since the limper would call 99.99% of the time as well). Thats not to even mention the implied odds that come with everyone having decent stacks.
