overall:
1. I was very fortunate to meet a lot of great people (at varying stages in their poker careers) who I hope to keep in contact with and/or see on the online and/or live circuit in the future...
2. I learned a lot about where to proceed in my poker career and a lot of things to work on...
3. Barring some rounding errors in cash games, I am overall about break even (I think maybe slightly under) for the trip.
4. I (somewhat) regret not playing in some of the 15-30 mix at the Rio, or maybe venturing into the 5-10 Big "O" (5 card plo8) game (although i was well underrolled at the time to play 5-10).
5. I also think I could have NLHE cash gamed a decent amount more. But, my main objectives were not to play NLHE. Visiting a lot of the casinos/wandering around Vegas (the Strip is huge and I don't think I even really walked around to all the sights) was a higher priority for me.
6. I seemed to run extremely well in lowball draw games (badugi/2-7 triple draw) up until the Aria 8 game MTT, where I don't think I won a single hand...
7. I seemed to run extremely well in Friday MTTs! (I think I had about 12 tournament lives, straight flushes, my first live MTT cash, etc...)
