Home from Vegas

Most of the Vegas trip is a blur, so I don't think a full trip report will be possible. Here's a couple of memorable quotes from the weekend that come to mind:

"I've never made a good laydown in my life" - Mickey in ITH main event

"Wait, what's you're screen name again?" - Geo contemplating calling a raise in the day 1 ITH NL event

"I've seen more suckouts than an 80 year old whore" - Mickey in ITH main event

"I check to Lee Jones" - Me after being 3 bet preflop by a guy wearing all poker stars gear

"What the hat says" - Mathew going all in in day 1 NL event…throws his "I'm all in" hat into pot

"I never read my copy of Harrington on Hangovers" - Me after showing up 30 minutes late to the day 1 ITH limit event

It was a fantastic time and I got to meet a great bunch of people. I faired extremely well in most of the cash games I played and managed to hang on to place 5th in the ITH NL main event. The hand that got me to the final table was K2o (I pushed first in) against K10s and AA. Turned a duece and rivered a K to triple up, lol. Having 20-30 spectators watch that hand unfold made it a pretty exciting suckout!

Can't wait to do it again next year!
