I was hoping to play the Venetian $2,500 today, but when I came home from the Rio yesterday I feel asleep nearly instantly around 10PM. I woke up at 1AM and, as a result, couldn't fall back asleep until around 7AM. I decided to pass on the Venetian and set my alarm to wake up in time for the Bellagio $2,000 at 2PM.

A glance around the Bellagio confirms this was definitely a good idea. There's almost no young players here and the only guy I recognize is friend and 2+2 poster 'mikej' who has flown in from California for a few days of tournaments before he goes back to school and being legitimate. We agree to swap 5% and with the field strength today, I like both our chances. Unfortunately the Bellagio elects to start us out 11 handed and still has no dinner breaks or a stoppage of play until a second day - you have to just play right on through. My first table is full of unknowns and we get under way with a 20,000 stack at 25/50 blinds and 40 minute levels.

Hey guys,

Unfortunately due to awful working absurdly expensive internet I haven't been able to get the updates linked properly or consistently in here. That period is over now, so things should be a lot more smooth.

Please let me know if these links work or not, Thanks, Bond

Quick X post from 2p2 since my battery is about to die and I don't have time to write anything:

Hey guys,

So for those who don't know I'm going on this around the world poker trip to play tournaments in the Mediterranean, France, Spain, Vegas, and California, then back to Melbourne,all in about 90 days. It's basically a larger and longer version of what I did with the WSOP last year.

I got a writing deal with Full Tilt to sponsor the material in exchange for exclusive rights. So basically for each update I can just create a thread like last year and provide a link. It took them a few days into the trip to get things rolling so there's already a few updates up.

I can't actually see what has been put up so far because the .com version of Full Tilt is apparently banned in Italy so hopefully the links work and everything.
