Vegas Day 8

Thursday 1st February.

Played in a Poker competition at the Sahara which was the only decent tournament i've found over here whereby you can wait for decent cards, there was some scary charachters in this, Mike Tysen lookalikes and his bigger uglier brother and Hells Angels rejects. I liked the tournament structure but had a long run of getting no decent cards and ended up 16th out of 52. Only top 5 got paid. Went for a walk up the strip, looked in Circus Circus glad I didn't stay there. Carried on up the strip past the Stardust which they are going to implode next month. Found the Fashion Mall and spent the next few hours shopping in here. Wifey would be in her element. Don't think i'll show her this place if she ever comes to Vegas with me. Walked up to Treasure Island just in time to see the Sirens show which was worth watching. Had a nice Italian meal and then explored the Venetian. Played a bit of Poker here, very posh room with nice tables, however playing against drunk little richboys who were playing every hand and getting some lucky wins, played for two hours before giving up as it wasn't poker just a luckfest, ended up $53 down.
