My flight from Vegas was overnight, so I got back home at around 10 AM EST (7 PST) after not being able to sleep at all on the plane. My wife had just gotten back from Korea the day before, so both of our circadian rhythms were extremely screwed up and we spent most of Saturday napping.

On Sunday, I woke up more or less okay and decided to play the usual half dozen tournaments I couldn't bring myself to skip. Final tally: 4/6 cashes, four extremely deep runs, a final 2 table on Bodog, a final 50 on UB (yeah, I know; I have $2000 there I'm too lazy to cash out and play one donkament a week with) and Cake, and 80/14000-odd in the Stars (2) Million. I ran white hot in all four for the first 4-5 hours of each, then lost the usual several late flips and quickly bustoed in all four to net a combined 5K. While I can't really complain because there was certainly a lot of getting there involved in those results to begin with, I'm still tired of not winning those late flips and have not been regretting the switch after the fact.

On the other hand, hey, a free 5 thousand bucks doesn't hurt, either. I'll probably at least come back to MTT's for the FTOPS/WCOOP.

Other news: I'm probably going to be on the 2+2 pokercast tonight discussing the UB scandal and Freddy Deeb. Check it out when it airs; I think I'm coming on shortly after midnight EST, but can't be too sure right now.

WSOP ME recap still coming up later today when I have a bit more free time than this entry (still haven't seen my parents in > 6 weeks).
