Day 1 in Vegas w/ LP

So I arrived in Vegas and met up with my roommate Pavel (pmilanov on Stars and FTP) and we went over to check in to our mini-baller room at the Wynn. Let me take the time to say, the Wynn is easily the nicest hotel in Vegas. Hands down. And they give poker players a sick good room rate for only playing 6 hrs a day at the poker room. EZ Yo!

So after taking a shower I immediately headed down to the Wynn Poker Room and started playing some $2-$5. Wow the players that play in casinos are terrible. I have KQ in middle position folded to me, I raise. I get 2 callers. Flop comes K-T-7 rainbow. Donk out of the blinds check, I bet $75 into a $100ish pot. Guy behind me folds, and this donk calls. Turn comes a 7. He checks I check. River comes a 3. He checks, I bet out $125. He's like "I can't put you on a King" and calls. Ship it. Then he starts telling the guy next to him how if I played the hand correctly and bet the turn he could have laid down his AT. I said sorry to him and told him I play bad. Make sure the donk knows that he's correct about his idea of the game. Came out of my first session +$500 which was sweet.

Lyric randomly ran into me in the Wynn poker room and there he introduced me to none other than Lex (RaSZi) and Dan (Rekrul) playing some $10/20. They are both real cool guys. So after, Lyric, Mango, Pavel and I went to dinner at Border's Grill at Mandalay Bay. Definitly some good mexican food. Daut met up with us after he went busto from the $3k WSOP event, and later on in the night Myth, and Ket both came to dinner. Obviously Ket is the man.


The Man, The Myth, The Legend... Ket

Mig.com came right when we were leaving and for the first time I got to see his brand new WSOP Bracelet. Totally baller yo. The plan was to head over to the Wynn and figure out our plan from there. Back at the Wynn poker room we all went up to talk to Rekrul again while he was still playing. Rek was playing with some sick big stack of bills and massive mountain of chips since all of Wynn's poker games are uncapped. While we were talking we see a guy at Rekrul's table stand up and start swearing "You stupid mother fucker, fucking shit I can't believe that. This fucking kid is so bad". Apparently Rekrul check/raised this guy all-in on a T-6-3 rainbow board w/ K7. The guy snap called with KK. Turn 4, river 5. Obviously this guy didn't know... Rekrul can see the turn and the river. So the guy just storms off and leaves and we all start busting up laughing over it.


[vital]myth, Ket, pmilanov, and mig.com


mig.com, Lyric, Mango, Daut, and RaSZi (cut-off)

We meet up with RaSZi and finally figured out that we were going to drive over to Ryan's total $4million baller pad on the south side of the strip. So we get there and wow....


The group gathers to leave

So words cannot describe how baller this pad is... When we got in, we saw Martine23, Reddog, tbc, and Genius28 all on this huge stretch couch playing on their laptops. We went down to the game room and were met with a poker table and a pool table with some baller ass chairs to boot.


Wannabe pool hustlers

So we whipped out the drinks and played some crazy ass $1-$2 mixed game format with a 50 cent ante and it just got totally degen yo. Daut on the other hand decided to get his champion sleep for the $2500 6 handed event coming up.



We end up heading home around 4:00am and I just pass out. Btw for those that dont believe me that Wynn is the sickest place ever, just check out the view from my room:






Ok I'm going to plug in some more hours downstairs at the tables. Later you guys!

nice read Cosmo I'd love to be in Vegas right now. Good luck in the casinos

get pics of the rekrul :D

Awesome pics. You guys are staying at super nice hotel but why is Rayn sleeping in what it seems to be the most uncomfortable position ever ? Not enough beds i guess.

More pics next time pls

How much is the room? Do you have to put in time there before you get the rate? or they'll just give it to you without any preivous play?

jesus that looks nice

wynn ftw!

Nice post! Keep them comming and GL.

OMFG cosmo that is such a sick room. I need you winning a bracelet in the near future.

I love this room. Who doesn't though?

rekrul is sick, i met him the other day when they started a new 10/20 table at the wynn and we both sat and i was like hey that guy looks familiar from somewhere, and is wearing an insane watch too..could it be!?? first 2 hrs at the table he just smashed everyone it was ridic. then he hit some coolers vs sick fish and started tilting some, sucks

daut's house is a palace its so surreal they're all living such a lifestyle of total baller out of control luxury just because they are pretty good at some fkd up gambling game which happens to be popular. me too, to a lesser extent... im still expecting to wake up and find it was all a dream and im still a broke ass scrub uni student

cosmo is going to be ON A MISSION with picture taking this trip, just look at his dedication


awed by the bracelet,obv
