On Wednesday, I moved from the Jockey Club (on the strip) to the Orleans with plans to play in the Seniors National Championship on the weekend. I've not been here before and was pleasantly surprised at what a great poker room they had. Before I had just assumed the Orleans was another long-in-the-tooth Vegas casino not worth visiting. I was wrong. I played in the Wednesday tournament with maybe 200 runners. It was a well-run affair.
To qualify for the finals SPC on Sunday, you had to play Friday or Saturday and last 11 45-minute levels. I bagged 44,100 chips where the big blind is about to go up to 2400. I believe I was 36th out of the 46 who advanced from Friday (Day 1A). See here.
With a short stack, I'll need some luck, but that's the beauty of poker -- chip and a chair and all that stuff.
Good luck tomorrow Mojo, I know you can make another good score.
