Combining an amazing amount of poker skill, a field full of awful players, & a savvy chip leader in the form of BrassFox, Adam Liebman qualified for Paradise Poker's first live tournament, Conquest. Adam, along side his stunning & witty co-captain/blogmaster, Jason Flanzer, will attempt to take down a six figure payout!

For obvious reasons we ditched the beach to hit up the casinos. After a few losses at the let-it-ride poker table, Liebman hit really big with his trip tens to pull down $150.

A few crap throws and roulette spins later, we decided to retreat to our room for the night, when Adam saw two friends he made from the plane, John and Alicia. They were two 22 year olds from Ohio, and John, known as JohnnyV5000, qualified for the tourney. They were good people who liked to have fun, and that is what we needed. After chatting it up, we spotted Michael Vick playing blackjack. Yes...I did say Michael Vick. Yes...The quarterback for the Atlanta Falcons. After John laid down $100 and hand of blackjack next to him (and won!), we retreated to the bar/grill and had some food, laughs, and some drinks. We bid them farewell and headed back to our room.
