Im back home now but I don't feel like typing of a full report right now

Cliff Notes:

- Was up almost $11k in the first two days of the trip (-$2650 for the $2500 event which I bought into) all playing exclusively 5/10NL $2k Max Buy In @ Borgata. While Adrian played 10/20 NL $5k max Buy in during the week and took 1 shot at 25/50 NL No Cap the last day, I never went higher (nor wanted to at this point) than 5/10 (he's also has about 8x my bankroll so i guess it makes sense). The Game was decent -- a lot of 'grinders' were playing there (not necessarily a bad thing bc they don't like getting involved in marginal situations, so i was able to push them off hands pretty easily as long as I kept a clean image and didn't get caught) and there were usually 2-3 fish at the table eager to dump money away. Suffered a $6k downswing the next two days (holy shit some people CAN NOT FOLD!!!!!) and picked up a few bucks the last day. After Tournament Buy Ins plus Hotel Expenses/food/gas/tolls/club n bar bill etc I came up ahead $1100 for the trip... cool but disappointing considering how I started off.
