If it makes anyone feel better I left the Grand Sierra ahead almost $1000. I lost a solid amount when I bought in later on in the day on a heart-breaker of a hand. I was cooking pretty good and went all-in on pocket kings...the other guy called on 9 A suited and drew 3 9's. The really bad thing was I flopped into 3 kings kings (9 5 K), but the turn and river did me in (9 9). A beauty FH shot down by 4 freakin 9's. Either of those last 9's not turn up and I would have been close to $3k ahead. Grrr. Not complaining about a grand though.
I will let you know when I am headed to Utah next and see if we can maybe get a game together. Hope you guys had fun.
