I LOVE LET IT RIDE!!

After coming back to the Flamingo, I decided to play some Let it Ride.
I bought in for $200 and got absolutely nothing and I was down to my last hand. I told the dealer, if you want me to stay, you have to deal me something good.

I was dealt 774.
I pulled back the 1st bet and the dealer flipped a 7. I tucked my cards and low and behold he flipped another 7 giving me quads (4 of a kind for you non-poker players)

It paid out 50 to 1 with a bonus of 300 for a grand total of $1300!!
Well I did not stick around after that.

Not even 24 hrs and I am up $1100.

I went the poker room and decided to play some $1-$2 NL. I bought in for $300 and honestly, not much happend. I raked in a few pots, but the largest pot was when I had KK and had a raise before me. I pushed all in and he called with AK of clubs. That pot was about $250. Poor guy was actually from Woodinville.

So after some playing for a bit, I cashed out for $400 (winning $100).

So overall for the trip, I am up $1200 so far. Lets hope the good times keep rolling.
Off to get something to eat and go sweat Charles Stewart in a poker tournament. Charles went to the same high school as me and is playing in a tourney at the Venetian. He and his wife were on the same flight as me and Erin.

Ok, I need coffee and food.
