Find Out Anything (Well Thread)

[icemonkey9]

I just got back from the World Poker Tour's $25k Championship Event at the Bellagio. I spent the entire day there for Days 2, 3, 4, 6 and the Final Table. I got to meet quite a few of the top pros ... I got so many stories to share I just figured to do a cool well thread instead of 21359 posts. Hopefully that works for everyone.

If you are interested in looking at my videos I did for the website I work for, you should know where to find them (you can PM me if you do not know). I don't want to post links without a Mod's blessing so I'll do it this way.

Ask away!

Welcome back! Hope you had fun! I know you probably went there on some business.. but did you get to play in any poker while you were there?

Congrats!

Did you just cruise the floor and randomly interview peeps or did you have pre-arranged time slots.

Yes, I played a ton of 1/2 at the M Resort. First night I played nitty and dropped about $150 while playing with my boss who played like a LAG maniac. We talked a lot of poker on the ride back after we played and I really re-thought my entire game. I thought about how it's time to open up my game and really show a ton of aggression post-flop. Next night at the M I won about $350. Next night dropped $160 on a tourney at Caesars that I finished in 48th in (no cash) by losing AK<88 as a shortstack. Last night in Vegas I won $99 at the cash tables at M.

Both. I had to be super flexible. For a guy like durrrr I had to ask, then figure out a time, and then do it then. Some guys like Andy Bloch we caught right as they got up for break. Others insisted after they busted to interview them. We just tried to be friendly and accommodate the players.
