WSOP 2007 - General Updates...

[Talking Poker]

There were actually another dozen or so as well - you guys just don't know all of their names.

I was surprised to see him, since I'm pretty sure he's like 19 or 20, right? Basically, he just came over and said hello, so I said hello back - no hitting. He said he got here a couple of days ago and will be here until August, so I'm sure he and shabi will have plenty of time to go drinking.

Because he's underage, I assume he'll be sticking to the cash games. I don't know what he was playing, but I saw him cashing out about 3 racks or red ($1500) later in the night.

As for me.... I ended up playing for about 6 hours, until like 4:30 AM local time. I was again playing well, but I did make two calls that I shouldn't have. I knew better, but called anyway. Ran pretty crappy overall for the session, and finished down about $300. considering those two bad calls alone cost me about that much, I'm happy to have been able to break even the rest of the night. Reads were very solid all night, once again. My problem with the two calls I made was going with my brain ("he couldn't have REALLY hit that, could he?") instead of my gut that knew right where I stood in the hand.

I was planning on leaving about 2 hours earlier, but the later it got, the more shorthanded we played, which is definitely an edge for me. And some drunk guy came and sat at the table too,so I just couldn't resist. Naturally, he was a drunked card rack.

I'm doing nothng today - might play cash game for a while later, but I'm calling it an early night tonight, as I have the 6 man event tomorrow and I want to be fully rested. None of this going to bed when the sun is up crap. sjay and mayhem can do that and still play well, but I'm way too old.
