Back on the horse
 

I wanted to get right back out there and play some day tournaments, so OW and I went to Binion's for the 10 am $52 buy-in.

OW went out 5th for $147, and I took it down for $735.

Very different story than yesterday. I got JJ 3 times (including doubling up on the first hand of the tournament), AK twice, a few AJ's and an AQ. Busted the wife with TT.

On top o' the cash, I got a free T-shirt that says I won a NLHE tournament at Binion's. I also qualified for the July champions free-roll. I can't make it, but was allowed to transfer it to anyone at the FT. Of course, the entire FT were tourists. Nice overlay for the local winners.

A fun time over all. I didn't lose a showdown until we were at the final table. At one point, 3 handed, I was down to 2 and a half big blinds. Still waiting for KK or AA this trip.

The winning hand, Ace high. ;)

Gotta go meet up with the godmother for dinner.

Good hit
 

There's definitely an inherent cool factor to winning an event on poker's hallowed ground as well.

Good job congrats !

Annnnnd....the rest of the trip (and perhaps part of summer) is going to be a dry spell for Invig...and I'm not talking about poker... ;)

Good going to both you and OW!

Very nice!!

Oui oui!!! :cheers:

Thank you all. Tomorrow, I storm O'Shea's (:rolleyes:). We are going to see Penn and Teller tomorrow night, but I hope to get in 2 day tournaments as well.
