After only waking up at 11:30am the option of the $330 midday Venetian is gone so im thinking today could b very similar to yesterday. Pool fairly soon followed by a probable 7pm Caesars. If dont fancy that later then a cash table would be viable for a change anyway.
................................
Did the above in the end and despite being pretty card dead the whole way through i managed a 3rd in the 127 runner Caesars $330 game for $4051. Was short stacked from 25 players down but just played push poker and got away with it basically. It turns into a total crapshoot at a lot of stages and as always it laughable how low a few stacks let themselves get, especially around the bubble time. I lost an A9std vs A10 before winning a K9 vs AJ then finally busting KQstd vs the total fish J10std for a pot which would have given me 150k of the 570k in play. Blinds were 5/10 but about to go to 10/20 so the equity value of 150k would have been excellent as it would have been luck/aggression poker but it was not to be. 1st/2nd (or likely chop) was 13.25k/7.25k but i cant complain as i played near perfect poker and picked the right spots throughout without getting the cards as mentioned before. Oh 1 interesting hand i might as well blog:
200/400 just b4 a break (so going to 400/800), scandie guy just moved to table to make it 10 handed and raises utg+1 to 1400. im in the bb and call 1000 more with 97hh leaving myself about 5-5500 behind. flop is Qc10c7x chk chk. turn is a 4x and i chk, he now bets 4000 but it looks so weak i put him on AK or maybe AJ so shove knowing he is committed on instinct. He shows AK and i hold up for a 14k pot which obviously made a massive difference to my tournament. I keep going on instinct out there and it has rewarded me so many more times than me being wrong, it actually makes the game more fun too when you spot something which helps make the right decision easier.
Thanks for postive comments re: wsop , as said before i was totally over it after 24hours and have taken some huge positives from it.

Animal, slap yourself in the face, lift your chin up, fix a smile on your chops and get a few white russians down your neck. That's an order!! Enjoy the rest of your stay, Karlos.

I played my second CPC qualifier on Thursday and made it two wins from two to get into the final on Sunday.
The caribbean is such a good experience that I am determined to make it 3 successive years.
Not much play this weekend, as it was my birthday yesterday, (my last year in the 25-34 demographic!) and am continuing the celebrations today. So I will have to wait until Sunday evening to get playing again.
I am not playing enough for my liking at the moment, but there is just so much to do!
