Vegas daily - March 25

Today I woke at 10am and spent 2 hours messing around extending my hotel stay for a bit longer so I can continue my Vegas adventure.  My day went as follows:

- 1.30pm - register for 2pm Luxor tournament
- play $3/$6 limit game while I wait - buyin for $100 and cash out $120
- 2pm - play Luxor tournament - only 11 people registered but I win it so I get $300 payout for 1st place after paying $55 to enter.
- 4.20 pm - play $1/$2 NL for a couple of hours until I go to the MGM for their 7pm tournament - did ok = buyin for $100 and cash out for $240
- 6pm - get some lunch/dinner from the deli
- 6.45pm - register for MGM tournament
- play $1/$2 NL game for 10 mins until tournament starts - buyin for $100 and cash out for $165
- 7pm - play MGM tournament - 40 runners and a few alternates. Got down to 2 tables but made a mistake. I had 8k chips at 800/1600 and played SB/BB, then they broke the table and put me on another table immediately playing SB/BB again. Suddenly I was mega shortstacked so I pushed with J8 suited into a 3 way all-in hoping for a miracle. Both my cards were live but I did not get lucky and that was that
- played $1/$2 NL for about 90 mins and did ok - buyin for $100 and cash out for $243
- played $3/$6 limit for a couple of hours (into early morning) and did ok - buyin for $100 and cash out for $163.
- walk back to Luxor and sort our room key recoding for extending my stay
- after checking emails and the blog updates it is just shy of 4am so I will sleep for 6 hours and start again.

Overall, a good day with 1 tournament win and a few cash wins....
