Well just woke up after taking a beat around 11:30 last nighht. I feel I did pretty well, I finish 6th out of 100 players, Got a check for just over $3,700. Top five that are left plays today. The winner gets $50k and a $10k free entry into a huge tournament in Vegas next year for a chance at a cool $1 mill. I am flying home later tonight and overall had a good time. Poker my friends will wear you out against some top people in the game.
There were some cool lucky markers by some players they had various Gold coins, some had old Morgans that were rare and even one guy had a ex 4 carat diamond ring that he had from his ex wife that was a popular movie star in hollywood that he was married with for about 5 months until he found her in bed with another actor. I played with a couple of well known sports figures and so called high roller. Very cool people they accepted my lame azz just like they would their own.
All though it was only a $50k game the high figures were shooting for a little extra cash but the free entry into the big game in Vegas gives them free travel, first class hotel and a second buy into another private game if they lose early in the tournament next year. Oh plus the fine woman, as a happy married man and a christian your mouth would water as a man viewing these beauties all day long.

I use to play out there in L.V. when I went to College in Arizona, in the 80's long before the Poker craze got started.
It was so much fun to play in the various Poker Rooms with the locals and tourists. I learned so much, even made some money to cover tuition.
I played in a 70 person tourney last year (my first) at a local casino and won first place, $700 and a Buffet Ticket.
I sure wish I had more time, it was like shooting fish in a barrel ;>
I love playing 7-Card Hi/Low on line (there are ways around the ban).
Now that is a game that needs a computer to play and is a very difficult "live game" to sit at.
edited to say: so what was your marker?
I'm about due for an AC junket.
6th place, nice showing...............how much was the buyin??
My best payday playing poker was at our local Poker Palace
Myself and a buddy from our friday night game entered both tourneys that saturday. The 1st tourney he came in 1st, I made it to 3rd($200+payout), The second tourney I came in 1st ($1488 payout) he made it to 4th.
