The journey begins



Arrived in Las Vegas this morning. Came with with a friend, Sim Therrell. He is both a poker player and a bridge player. Got settled in at the Rio and checked out where everything is.

The WSOP tournaments look like they are going to be big again this year.

Played in a little ($185) evening tournament, just to warm up. Never got going. Hey, tomorrow is another day. I did have one cute hand. It folded to the small blind who raised to 1650 (blinds are 400/200/50). I moved all in for about 14K and he folded. I turned over J-5 off-suit. The other players loved it -- they didn't expect that from a nitty old man. That's Mr. Nitty to you, sir.

Photo taken with my P&S. Does anybody know why blogger is putting my images on the left-hand side, even though I specify centered?

    I am going with Socialist plot. You need to contact the White House for clarification.

    Got in the Rio, eh? Super! You'll be avoiding those IP hoi palloi like Sparky.
