Been playing the Bellagio with a modicum of success. Won a single table satellite to play the event the other day but have been in a run of space since then it seems. It will pass, it always does but rather weird right now. Although I hate rebuy tourneys played yesterdays for $1k, just a day of have high cards and board is low and have low cards and the board is high. Finally had K J of hearts and the board runs low giving someone a straight. Returned today for the $500 event and couldn’t get any traction, had three pairs in four hours, 10s and raised, they folded, fours and the board is 3 3 2 and a guy bets and I re raise him. He says, hmmm, I think I’m good here with my deuce but finally shows, I say “Sir there isn’t much my hand can beat but that board is amazingly perfect and show the 44 and the table laughed. Then I had QQ, raise, get reraised and we got it all in only to run into AA, happens, will see what tomorrow brings. These “runs” always pass and as usual it can’t be soon enough.
On a side note, had a gentleman who came up to the table yesterday and apologized for the bad behaviour of the other men at the final table on Sunday. I thanked him as it was gracious indeed. After he left the table asked me what had happened and I said “just your below average group of Neanderthals”. They laughed.
