We ICM it for 4250 (2nd place money etc)

Big money for result to help us climb out of the hole!...

Day 7 (Part 2)

So we wake up (albeit later than we want around 3am) and we rush downstairs to try to catch the tail end of any PLO degeneracy we can. Game is on it's last legs but we hop in anyway and we score a couple small pots and we manage to take a bomb pot that no one wants to fight for when we have half of it locked up and we pot it from early position. The game breaks and we are up 310 somehow in one of the quickest/easiest sessions of the trip (nice to finally have one of those) and then we sit 1/3 NL for another couple of hours until Jardin opens for breakfast. 1/3 was medicore but we grind out a modest 105 dollar win for a decent morning to end the night/day.

We head over to Jardin and grab a green machine juice and a steak salad for breakfast.

We end up degen'ing video poker with the rest of our green juice and we actually win 80 dollars (lol) and we decide we want to lock that up and we cash out.

We had back to the room to pack up. It's now Day 8 and our flight leaves in a bit. I'm honestly exhausted and ready to go home. This was an odd trip and I'll write a recap with my final thoughts in a bit....but for now, here are the updated totals for the whole trip. I made a mistake on the tourney piece, I actually was in the positive larger than I first calculated. Other than that....here it is:

Poker Cash: $-2300 (yuck - first negative cash trip during WSOP in I can't even remember)

Poker Tourney: $14,500 ($16,100 in cashes, $1600 in buy ins -thrilled of course. Still not over not winning and the TT hand at the final table. I'm almost ready to post it. ALMOST)

Pit/Sports Bets: -$3,300 (dumb dumb dumb but fun fun fun lol)

Trip Totals: +$8,900 Let's go!!!!

Another WSOP trip in the books in black.........

Well…5th place for 11.5 K….. well I can’t be too disappointed about another great run like this. I messed up TT pretty significantly in a spot that I should easily handle better. I’ll post a bunch of details and key hands from my run tomorrow - totally shot. Here is what you came for anyway! Are you not entertained?
