WSOP Rincon

Last night Ashley, Anthony and I played at the WSOP Circut event at Harrah's Rincon. I really like the facility itself, but the action at the place is pretty blah. I always feel a pressure when I play up there, because it is an hour drive, and since the cash game is pretty terrible, if busting occurs then it is a very long boring drive home.

Anyways, I played really well, and was very happy about my play. I got stuck early when I flopped top two on an AKT board against broadway. I battled back for a long time, but unfortunately was just short of the money, finishing in 29th with the top 18 getting paid. Sigh...

Ashley faired slightly better then me, and was able to make the money despite taking a pretty brutal cooler (KJ vs AA, on an AKK flop) as the money drew near. We might go back on Saturday so she can play in the Ladies event, and I am going to hope the cash games are better when we return.

Other then that, not too much has been happening. I have been eating alot better, and have had less trouble sleeping and it has been much easier waking up in the mornings. With a bit more work the weight bet is going to be in the bag. Simply cutting out fried foods, and soda has been immensely helpful in this first week. I have been eating alot of salads, and when I eat sandwiches, I am trying to eat less bread, and am ordering them without fries. Its a change but I know in the long run it will be benficial. Mentally when I am playing cards, I feel more fresh, and am able to concentrate for longer periods, while maintaining a good amount of discipline.

Ashley is cooking tonight, and I got things on the DVR to catch up on. Tonight should be exciting!
