this was my third trip. the first two were spectacular. this one was also good, i think. i don't really remember. everything was blocked out by 2 things-
1) losing craploads of money incredibly fast and being very unlucky in blackjack and poker (two pair ran into a set, KK ran into AA). not that it was all unlucky, i played NL fine but i played limit like the idiot fish that i am, and lost money accordingly.
2) i threw up in the middle of the plane somewhere over upstate new york. then again in the baggage claim area. then again about once an hour for 9 hours on monday. then my stomach exploded. today is the first day i'm feeling somewhat normal from head to toe since.. last thursday or so.
i don't have much else to say about the trip. seeing thad and asian and eventually parker was really fun, and getting some sun was nice. i have no poker confidence now either, my game is WAY off.
so
that's all i'm going to say about vegas. i have a few photos somewhere, which i will post tonight. and then we can move on to other fun things, like baseball starting on sunday and the nfl draft weekend coming up soon.
thanks for indulging me.
