Brandon Adams Life Update
I've been travelling around a lot. I've been in LA and Vegas a lot in the past month, playing a lot of poker. It turns out that I'm a bad blogger.... the more interesting my experiences, the more I think, "Am I really going to put that in a blog?" So the whole thing just doesn't work out. But I'll keep at it.
I played this pot on Saturday....

In other news, Viffer (Dave Peat) played for 77 hours straight (in the same seat, no significant breaks) at Commerce recently. By the way, for those who don't know, he's one hell of a live poker player when he's on. I think he even managed to book a win on that marathon session. One of the overlooked arguments for booking a win and going to sleep after, say, 16 hours, is that if you keep going, you will often find yourself in the situation of, "Shit, i've been playing for thirty hours, but this game is too good to quit. No way I can leave." And next thing you know you're 77 hours deep.
I think Gus has been winning a decent bit on FT lately. One thing that (sometimes) seems to work out for him is, if his hand has any value at all, he's going to see it through. I mean he's not folding away much of his equity.
