On Friday night I went to the Orleans Casino for a poker tournament. This tournament is considered on of the best in Weekly Tournaments in Las Vegas. The reason for this is the price vs benefit analysis. It cost $125 to get into the tournament. There are anywhere from 200 to 300 entrants. Friday there were 250 and the 1st place money was $6.800. You start with 12,500 chips and it is a deep stack structure. The player were mostly regulars and it was not an aggressive internet like shove fest. Play good cards and position and you will go deep. I went out 75th. It was a very familiar story. I have A-Q and I am late in the orbit. The player to my left shoves and I think it is a play. I call and he turns over 5-7 suited. I hit the Queen and he goes runner runner for a straight. And so it goes.
