The Bellagio self-park is located off the strip and is at the opposite end of the casino from the poker room. So I asked around to some poker friends and found out there was a north valet located off of Flamingo. I thought I would give it a try and WOW! It is about a 2 minute walk to the poker room, they take your car, and bring it back for free... just give them a little tip and bingo! So now I valet everywhere! it is so amazing! I can't believe I never did it before!
On the poker side of the news, I played the bellagio on Thursday night hitting up the 4/8 for 3 hours. They say that if a bad player hits good cards he can have a good day and win some money, especially in 4/8 which is basically a showdown game. However if a good player gets good cards, watch out. He will run over a table! Well I had one of those days... good cards, good flops, no suckouts. Just killed the table up 330 in 3 hours. It was absolutely sick. I just couldn't miss...
Friday night however was a whole different story, bad cards, bad flops. When the good cards came someone else was coming out better. I flopped flush over flush, 2 pair over 2 pair, set over straight, etc. To top it off, I was getting frustrated at the stupid people and I left my ipod at home. So I was pushing trying to make something happen and forcing hands that I had no business being in. So I dropped 350 in about 4 hours before Ifinally managed to straighten out my game, played better and won 250 of it back before cashing out at about 12:30 AM for a net loss of 95.
It just goes to show that in the long term the better player WILL win, you just have to not get sucked into the short term results. Heading back out to the bellagio again and we will see if I can maintain my focus.
