More Vegas, more cashes

So after entertaining our Australian friends for a few days they left town and I headed back out to Las Vegas to collect my brother Tony who was flying in from England. He also loves the poker!

I collected him on Wednesday. The agreement was I would stake him for a few tournaments and we would share 50/50 any prize money for the few days we were in Las Vegas. We played the following tournies:

Thurs - Planet Hollywood - I busted out (25th out of 40), but he he chopped 2 ways for $600
Fri - The Orleans - he busted out, I bubbled (12th out of 110, 9 paid)
Fri - The Sahara - he busted out, I chopped 4 ways (out of 100+ players) for $1096

We drove back to California on Saturday ready for me to play in the Oceans 11 Memorial tournament on the Sunday - unfortunately I busted out of this one quite early.

This week we plan to play a few tournaments in the LA poker clubs (The Bike, Commerce, Hollywood Park etc.) and Oceanside (Oceans 11) and other local spots (maybe Pechanga, Morongo etc.). Even though I say local they are all a drive away.....did I mention I hate driving in California - way too much traffic.
