Be prepared for the experience of a lifetime. Being at the wsop is to regular poker at your local casino the way being at the Super Bowl is to a preseason football game. The atmosphere is simply electric. Good luck.

I have been there before :) The thing you have to be prepared for is the sprint to the bathroom during breaks because the line is going to be looooooooooong at every bathroom :)

I had to sit out 5 minutes early before each break to beat the crowd...that's about the only thing I beat the crowd at...LOL.

This was last minute thing. I had no plans for coming this year but my son wanted me to come at the last minute and I never say no to him :) No, I have no CC gear. If you have some CC stuff I will wear it :) I am staying at RIO and playing the team event with my son tomorrow. Update for those who asked: The colossus was a loser... an unfortunate flopped set vs flopped flush incident early in level one and I played the short stack great until level 10 I think... anyway busted level after black chip color up when I ran 66 into 55 allin pre and lost to set of fives. Table complimented me on how well I take brutal beats lol. I had a good time though, maybe the team event will go better.:)

Late breakfast at Ri Ra Irish Pub at Mandalay Bay, mmmmm good. Ready for this team event which I will be playing most of because my teammate (son) will only be playing one orbit before heading over to the Wynn to late reg the $3500 buy-in over there. Food was so good at the Ri Ra had to get a shirt. :)

No cashes in WSOP tourneys, never dealt a pair with a face on it in any WSOP tourney :( I did cash in the Venetian deep stack ($600), but my JJ was defeated by 88 and I only cashed for $1479 but I was in position to make a super deep run until then and I felt good about my chances in that one. I think next year I will spend more time at the Venetian playing the $1100 and $600 tourney's they run, the structures in those tourney's are perfect for me.
