Picked a bad time to fly to Minnesota weather wise. I guess if you're playing on line tournaments you could be anywhere as long as you have a connection, ethernet, wifi wi max, doesn't matter.

Too bad it wasn't a plane problem. Better luck next time.

 Flying is a bad beat
 By Adanthar on 12/05/2025 read Adanthar's complete blog  
It turns out that scheduling a 1 hour, cross-airline layover is not a good idea when you're flying from NY through Minneapolis in bad weather. Not only did I miss my flight, I got stuck in Minneapolis for a night. Fun fact about American Airlines policy: if it's an airport problem and not a plane problem, they'll only give you half-off coupons for a hotel instead of comping it. It's as if they were competing to lose my business, especially when I *just* signed up for their frequent flier program, like, two weeks ago.

Anyway, I finally got to Vegas yesterday, watched Vivek (psyduck) bubble the 15K Venetian event (uuggggghh), then lasted 90 minutes in today's Bellagio $2500 tourney when QQ < KK. Standard, but whatever, lots more poker coming up soon.

On the plus side, I'm officially not going to Australia in January. This is good because it turns out the Aussie Millions conflicts with the Borgata WPT event, and since I've got comped rooms there and don't need to take 48 hours and two stops each way's worth of flying to make a single poker tournament, going to AC instead is a no brainer. I still want to visit Australia, but it'll have to wait for when I can make a real vacation out of it.

Meanwhile, at the moment, I'm just sitting in Vivek's apartment surfing the net and waiting around for the nightly tourneys to start - pretty much the same thing I do in NYC, but in a new and exciting time zone. The poker lifestyle is weird.
