So after a stunning Friday night cash game, I decide I'm ready to roll myself in some weekend tournaments. Although Sunday didn't turn out so hot (finished 6th in a 26 person Red Rock that only paid 4 spots), Saturday night was interesting...

The plan was to go to Caesar's and play the 9pm bounty tournament. However, we encountered some seriously Effed up Vegas weekend traffic, so I suggested the 10pm Treasure Island tourny instead. It's not the best....$65 buy in, 3500 in chips,

January was a pretty slow month in the casino business. So I didn't play a whole lot of live poker, as I used most paychecks to make ends meet.

This week, different story. This week was unpaid. 30+ hours without a dime. Apparently everyone goes through this before becoming official as a Dealertainer. I guess their theory is that if they train you, hence saving you the cost of dealer school, you put

1) People drive like complete shit here. They make my driving look safe and completely reasonable. One of our first nights here, we witnessed (and were seconds from being the unfortunate victims of) an idiot plowing through a red light at 45mph, t-boning a car and sending her spinning through the intersection to hit ANOTHER car.

2) "Hot" is really hard to describe until you actually live in Las Vegas. I had on heels for an interview and could feel myself sinking into
