WSOP 2007

I am flying into town on Sat 23rd June, and playing Event 42 PLO8 and Event 44 LO8. If I am out of Event 44 before deep I will play Event 46. If I go deep in 44, I will play Event 47. Home on 3rd July.

If anyone is in town I'm happy to meet up for a few beers.

good luck welly. it seems like you have covered all your bases.lol

Good Luck Welly.

Is this your debut or have you done it before

This is debut.

Usually I budget for some tourneys which I think are a little extravagent from a BR% perspective. But in previous years this has usually been online and limited to ones around $530 or $640.

2006 was a good year, so I feel I can crank it up a little.

Day in and day out I played (prior to US legislation) the same PLO8 $33rebuy tourney. About 5 to 8 of us were regular names in this, all getting our fair share of ROI from it. One of these only goes and wins a WSOP PLO8 bracelet and a WPT PLO8 event last year doesnt he. This was motivation enough for me to branch out a little shall we say.

good luck...no chance of any of these events being televised is there? Well theres a slim chance I would see you there. Trying to talk a wealthy friend of mine into staking me for the $2,000 PLHE event on 6/22. He already agreed to stake me for some tourneys but not that high yet.

Good Luck welly, hope all your cards are great, buck

Thats great Welly, the very best of luck to you.
We would all be stoked here if you came home with a bracelet or a cash out.
Whatever way it turns out we will all be rooting for you.

I'll probably be out first . Only time will tell.

Don`t even think that way,, think Positive and have a Shot of Whiskey 1/2 hour before the start,,,, buck

Have a shot now it never stopped me.

I think I'll pass on the shots, lol. Anyways good luck at the WSOP, even though months away still. I'm still considering entering one of the $1000 NLH or PLHE events, but we'll see. Considering I live here in Vegas now, you'd think I get my act together, but I doubt it.

Good luck Welly! I'm sure you'll be at the final table

So Gord, how does your quote apply to women who play poker??

how doesn't it?

Um, it was a joke, I was just referring to the fact that its stated towards "grown man" or men in general, but not women. That's all, lol, no worries.

oh, i'm sorry. i thought you were really contemplating it .lol

Haha, its ok, I should've made myself more clear. I guess people in this forum yet probably havn't gotten used to my personality yet, but most of the time I'm not being too serious about much things, I'm a good-natured person. Trust me, lol. I think.

they have not gotten used to me yet either.lol

will you be bringing a lapt op with you so you can let us know how you are doing?

Haha, well 750 posts later, I guess I'll still have to explain the way I am to people.

pass the liquor here too~

Oh gosh, so is that the way its going to be around here now, liquor at noon? lol, like i said, going to have to count me out.

omg it's past noon. make mine a double . i need to catch up

Welly do you know anyone else with plans to go to the WSOP? A previous forum I was in got together and represented that forum in one event. I don't think they were sponsored, just got little logos on their shirts, and ect. I don't know if there will be a copyright issue, or something else (sorry not so knowledgable on these kinds of things) but it would be pretty nice if a few more people form this forum got together, and then represented.

Since the quote is only talking about games that are appropriate for men to play, comparing baseball and poker, you can apply that against a women's hobbies as well. For women, cooking, cleaning, ironing, etc. could all replace baseball I guess..... j/k

sorry estelle, need something to keep me warm running in downtown stl. liquor seems to have a knack for that, haha

And also, we're planning a Vegas meeting type thing for this coming summer, in case you didn't know.

Lol, OMG, do you really want to go there?? How many women are in here to back me up?

Oh really, well I didnt know about the meeting. Since I'm already here, I'll probably be there. When is it?

Um, and back to the liquor, haha, warmth I guess is an issue, but when I drink, I get a bit wild, and cant control myself, so I tend to stay away from that stuff, lol.

im with you sister. i usually drink to the point of blacking out, it makes for amazing stories the next day.

anyway- i dont think a date has been set, just tentatively set for next summer-ish

Haha, exactly, and well, thats not too good for my body either, and I try to stay in shape so. And yes, definitely some amazing stories, but I doubt its content that I can share on this forum, lol.

And about the meet, we should get a game going live when we do get a few people here to meet.

that's the plan.

and it's not that bad for me at least. i work out every day, either running or lifting so it's not too bad since i dont eat fast food or drink soda. i need some sort of vice in my life to balance.

Someone from here played in a stud event last year. I forget who it was now. Someone help me out in remembering.

As joose says we've had a discussion about meeting around early July (around the time of the main event). Have you got a house that will fit 20 people?

or at least a bed that will

I try to run everyday, or did when I was in NY, not much since I've got to Vegas, lol. You're exactly like me on Fast food and soda, first person ive met that does that too.

Well, not exactly a house, lol. Currently I live in a hotel. Haha, so its not that great.

And joose, hows the floor sound to you??
