WSOP Las Vegas

Well boys and girls I am sitting in my suite at The Rio in Las Vegas after getting in yesterday afternoon and then staying awake for as long as humanly possible.

Today is the first day of my Tournament in the WSOP (Event 49) its is scheduled for 3 days and the field is currently 2,500 players. At $1,500 entry for each player that puts the prize pot at about $4.25mm.

So we will see how day one goes today, I cant sleep as I am still on UK time and its 6am here now, although the sun coming up over Vegas did look really nice. Havent seen any yet but they are planned later this week with some later on.

Will post later/tomorrow

All the best
Andy

Nice one Andy. Vegas is fantastic. I went about 5 years ago and loved it. Everything is just so big, its like your on a film set. The roller coaster on top of New York New York is brilliant as is the show outside Treasure Island and Freemont Street is a must.

You lucky *******

Forgot to say, good luck in the Tourne

Cheers Mate, all going well so far, having a 90 minute break for dinner. Currently 1,384 left out of a field of 2,718. Not doing too bad chips wise, I have 17,375 at the moment and the average stack is 9,500.

Will post again later, have seen Doyle Brunson and Phil Ivy so far, those familiar with poker will know who they are.

Cheers
Andy

Thanks all, I got knocked out with two really bad beats. I wont go into the details and bore you but I finished 1,190 out of 2,718. I then went out on the town to the following places:-

Rain, Ghostbar, Playboy Club & Moon .................. and then Saphirres

Got a banging headache so it must have been a great night out woke to find I had onl spent $30 all night as I won $450 as we got back to the hotel last night/this morning so someone up there must love me :-)

Things I like about Vegas

The Ladeeys (V nice)
Big Rooms
Food
Cheap drinks

Things Vegas could do better

Stop tipping everyone and his dog
Refit old and tired hotels
Please stop with the obsession with Rap/Hard R&B in nightclubs, we dont all like it!

More later, am off to fire a Desert Eagle .50 and the biggest Machine Gun they have in the Las Vegas Gun store :-)

Ok, pics to follow when I am home and have uploaded them, the guns we played with were as follows:-

M4 (Ouch this thing is very poweful)
SAW Machine Gun (great fun and belt fed)
.308 Police Sniper Rifle (Very good, would love to try at distance)
Desert Eagle (crazy hand cannon)
Sten Gun (Easy to fire and control after playing with the above but difficult grip position)

Sapphires pics are non existant apart from in my head as this way the wife cant see them :-)

Cheers

Coooooooooooooooooooooolllllllllll
