   WSOP Event 49 Blog Series - Home Again

   I just got home. After I busted out, I didn't get to sleep until about 5am - I didn't feel like checking out at 11am. So Adrian and I decided to extend our stay one day and properly celebrate with Jeff and Stephen.

   We played some 1/2 at the Venetian and won $12. Adrian and I battled hard against each other and it was a lot of fun. The other players probably hated it and loved the extra action at the same time. The best hand was when Adrian was telling a story about the tournament, flopped a straight (and straight-flush draw) against my two pair, and doubled up for $300 through me. The whole time we just kept talking like nothing was going on. :D Of course, I got my money back because "crazy Jason" would never flop a set against an opponent with top pair and raise him. Yoink! BTW, that's called "JC Tranning" somebody now. :/

   K, I have to eat then sleep. I'm so tired. I will read and respond to all your comments and threads and everything. I really appreciate the support. Wow! Oh, and I'll definitely write more about it after I catch up on everything. Out.

   • Jason - I have a few questions for you.
     Can you please answer them in your post about your experience?

     1. What skills did you feel are important when playing a big tournament when compared to smaller tournaments?

     2. Were good players taking chances in early stages to accumulate chips?

     3. Please post some hands where you owned some one. I heard about the hand where you called bluff from chip leader.

     4. Did playing this event make you a better player?

     5. Would you recommend the experience just for the fun? What was teh stress level?
