Glad I read back a page to find out you were in Vegas ... was beginning to worry about you turning into Ger (being drunk at noon on a Thursday) :)

Okay megastacks event 1 at Caesars Palace, $340 buy in, 20k starting stack and a 40 mins clock.

Only 143 runners after the 4 hour re entry period that was a bit disappointing, although it is still early days.

23,000 at 1st break (end of level 3)

Playing good solid poker.  Call a raise on the button with AQ and 4 to a flop QJ2 which the raiser bets and I re raise to 700 in position.  2 callers and all check the turn J, river A and the original raiser bets 1,500, I put him on AK and call to win a nice early pot (good read).  I raise the button with KK and BB calls.  Flop A76 and it goes check check, turn 7, check check again, river 2 and he checks.  Figure he does not have an ace and bet 350 for value, he calls and mucks, value betting is an area of my game that has definitely improved and this was a good spot.  Crazy table in general, trying to keep out of trouble, started 6 handed and one guy has knocked 3 out by end of level 2 and is up to 80k.  Example hand was only the 3rd of the tournament on a board 975,3,6 betting goes crazy post river and an all in shove by 99 is called by A4!!!!!  Mad 45k pot at 25-50 with no one holding the nuts, mad, the 99 guy (who was french) went off on one, I still don"t understand how it did not go check check.
