event 3: omaha 8/better

So, tumultuous first few days here. quick recap, the extended stay we rented is in turmoil and we may get evicted through no fault of our own. In the meantime, no keys for all of us, and the ones we have don't work to get through the second gate, the air conditioning's broken (we gave up and stayed at the Rio last night because it was too hot to sleep) and we don't have the second apartment for Wes and I yet and there are 5 of us packed in Andrew's (we're supposed to get it tomorrow though). One the bright side Andrew, Wes and our friend Liam all scooped massively the first night of cash games we were here. Andrew and Wes in 10-25 nlhe, Liam at 2-5 nlhe. I think Wes booked a huge 9k~ win. That night I bounced around, I had to work on getting the wire approved and moved to the floor, then getting a lock box. I finally played a little 50-100 horse with a really tight table (including jens voortman and men the master), game stunk so I moved to 5-10 nlhe, played a hand bad and then got called for the 25-25-50 plo game. Massive game, playing huge with the 3blinds, there was ~65k on the table. I sat pretty short ~50 bb, limp/wrapped a hand with AAJQds. Won a few non-shown down hands, won a bit and then called it a night just when a bunch of spots sat in the game with really deep stacks.
So the omaha event. First 6 hours was a grind. No action but a fishy table. I started with 4500, worked up to about 9100 by the dinner but since no one had busted on our table there was no chips to be had. Finally after dinner, people started falling from this very boring quiet table and we got some equally un-giving opponents yet way more interesting. Jay Hemowitz (sp?) from the old mayfair club in new york, mark gregorich (omaha writer and specialist in this discipline) and one of the most entertaining men in poker, eli elezera, oh and annie duke. Anyways, table played tough, eli played almost every hand and worked up a huge stack. I lost a very big pot with A256 on a 349 board w a nut-flush draw. I think we 5bet capped the flop and got 3 more in on the turn, I aired out though and lost that pot. Shortstacking begins. That table got broke and I ended the day with Chad Brown, Layne Flack and a host of fish. The table was great but we only played 2 rounds or so until the day's end of level 10. I'm extremely short going into day two. I have only 4800 playing 1000-2000? i can't really remember what level we come back at. I'm sure the average stack has only 20k but whatever. I wasn't looking to give up and really couldn't find a spot to blast in before the end of the day. Who knows, heater may be on it's way tomorrow.
Not much else going on. I'm registered for the massive 1k buyin nlhe tournament on sunday. Should get so many that 1million may be first place for that. Think about that ROI if you can run hot. Andrew, Liam, Ryan, Wes and I played golf at a local par 3 9 hole course by the airport. Andrew wanted to bet, gave me a shot a hole for the first 3, then 1/2 for the middle 3, then straight up on the last 3. I lucked my way into a scoop. So all in all, I'm up more in golf this trip than anything else :). That is not a good sign if you've seen this stroke.
