Consistent at least & Homeward bound

Consistent at least & Homeward bound

Last day out on the street and its a lazy day in general with a bit of shopping with Mrs C getting a last few bits n pieces. At least theres some nice bargains over here especially with the strength of the £.

Give Binnions comp a miss and just play the very convenient Caesars 7.00 pm for $150 and at least if I was to go deep ( hahahahaha) Im close to bed and its a max of 2.30/3.00 estimated finish.
Just short of 200 runners again so approx $5k to winner. Hitting the cash was my target so top 18 was where the target was set.
Very comfy table to start and quick double up with 2 nice covered up hands. One of 1st tables to break and moved 3 along to another nice table and some good crack with a guy from Nottingham who gave me the run down on the Poker/Casino scene there. Nicely settled and moving along nicely but had amazing guy on table. He had decent stack when I sat down but no exaggeration this guy played every single hand no matter what raise went before him or whatever position he was in. Infact it became a sort of open private joke between me and the guy from Nottingham.
Eventually this table broke and got moved into main hall and the dreaded table 61 where I had crap all last night.
1st hand there and I pick up KK woooooooooooooo but its folded to my raise. Thats it Im afraid until I limp in with J10 from just below button and flop is JJ2. I bet it and guy calls my bet and an 8 turn sees him check raise my bet which I decide to just call. Its the jewel at the river when the 4th Jack pops out and also possible flush. Im convinced its pay day and hes gonna check raise me to be honest and I make token 3k bet into pot which after think tank he folds ( the fkn pussy)
Here we go I reckon and at last a decent run at vital stage but nope. Card dead sets in and cant even make any moves as big raises keep coming in front of me.
I drop to 6k but double through with 88 then on my BB which was contantly attacked by 2 players in particular the standard 3 X raise came in and called by the SB as well. I look down at 10 10 and with the time it was push em all in. Initial raiser folds reluctantly and SB after think tank announces call.
I tell him " Ive got your favourite hand" as hes had it at least 5 times and he says Noooooo turning over 99. Flop comes 2276 and of course as expected the killer 9 bombs in on the river.
Dealer previously had asked me where I had got my lucky 4 leaf clover card guard and as I left I told him " Its going back tomorrow cos its obviously broke"

Oh well been a great trip and its up in morning, pay my internet bill at reception then taxi to airport and hopefully no delays and an easier return journey back than the inward one.

Lets hope I get a change of luck this weekend and am certainly looking forward to meeting alot of old & new faces at the Virgin Festival.
