Bellagio Bustville

ByEdward Pizzarello

After playing like a donkey for the better part of 2 hours, I doubled up and was back in the tournament. I got lucky on a squeeze play and ended up just below avg. To this point, I had not been dealt a pair of tens or better.

Got QQ on the button and managed to reraise preflop to win a nice pot. Very next hand, guy raises from mid position, I look down at two red Kings, I reraise pretty hefty, he calls. There’s now enough in the pot to make me chip leader, so on a J84 flop, I ship my remaining 12K. He calls pretty quickly with…….JTo. Rivers a Jack.

Somebody please pull the sharp stick out of my eye.

My goal in life is to fill my family’s passports with stamps, creating buckets of memories along the way. You’ll find me writing about realistic ways for normal people to travel the world, whether you’re on a budget or enjoy luxury. I also enjoy taking us on the occasional detour to explore the inner workings of the travel industry.
