All Around the Place
I sent out the final update via email to my investors. Went deep in a deep stack for lint, and just missed a final table in an outside the Rio tournament. I traded well again, as I had a piece of the dude that chopped/won that tournament and had a tiny sliver of a guy that finished ~21st in the Millionaire Maker. Tough run in Vegas, considering every package event, I lost my first big all-in hand (one time I had my opponent slightly covered) as a big favorite. While that in itself is not uncommon to lose as a big favorite, it's pretty unlikely for those hands to essentially happen consecutively every single FIRST time. Literally, I couldn't get anything going in any event despite getting it in great (Sets, overpairs etc. etc. etc). Just like last year, I came back to New Orleans and played in a weekly. I mauled it. Couldn't miss in a 5 hour turbo with the kind of card run I couldn't get over the course of a week in Vegas. Poker can be cruel....
