If I were Alan Kessler, those rooms would be free.

So, right now, I am contemplating renting a car for the first two days of my trip. It’s cheaper than paying for a Saturday night hotel room, which I might not get into until 2am. I can keep my luggage in the car while waiting for an early check-in, take a nap while waiting if necessary, do a grocery run, and eat at an off-strip restaurant or two, pending how I am running in tournaments.

I am contemplating a regular car rental agency vs Turo.

Have you considered homelessness for the weekend?

I was considering just playing straight through until early check-in.

Note to self, buy salad stuff, sandwich stuff, fruit, and beverages for the room.

I probably won’t crack open any books, but this is my study material if i have time to waste in my room.

Leaving for the airport in a few hours. This is the traditional way for how you’re supposed to do a trip report, right?

What are your top three books to read to prepare for a HORSE tournament?

37

Yeah I don’t even remember ever hearing about that one so probably lol.

I would bet there are a billion better online resources better than any book out there about HORSE.

I prefer the written word. I don’t watch videos about poker. I don’t know if there is a good online coaching site that caters well to my specific desire to play live only and not very much no limit hold em. I might play a tournament every day and no NL while I am out there.

I think I need to add Sklansky on Poker so I can re-read Sklansky on Razz and Ray Zee’s high-low split book
