I've never played a LIVE game anywhere before in my life, the first one I don't believe it should be a $1500 buy in:eek:

Why not? It's just like any other poker game. And if you get confused you can do like that guy in the USPC did and bet "2 orange and a purple chip".

Just barely :eek: - United Airlines $2440 round trip Sydney to Las Vegas.

Zorba and I would have to come out of Melbourne though, which would add another couple of hundred onto it :p

Regardless, I'd do it for a WSOP seat in a heartbeat.

So what do we do to get this to happen? Start a new thread "People Who Are Down for WSOP" or wait for Nick or a mod to make a comment and lead us?

PS - I'll be in Vegas July 4th weekend. Lets party.

What is the "cutoff" point cash wise? That seems like the most important fact, seeing how much everyone would be willing to put in and then figuring out how much we could get total.

Nick may have meant WSOP 09 - we need to clarify with him.

I'll be there, if you want to put me in (trip is booked). Probably will play the post ME "Casino Employee" event ($500 buy-in).

I'm doing a three day 'scouting trip' (lol) in a few weeks as well (May 26th)...

nice thought, but we usually just get 20 or 30 in our events,, im thinking Nick meant next year too,, kind of late for this year, or maybe not,, will wait and see what Nick comes up with,, we certainly have some good players here, buck:cool:

I'd be in it but the $2500.00 wouldn't cover my airfare.:p

An important consideration. We have members all around the world and whatever we plan should be reasonably workable for all. Several of CC`s best tournament players are in Europe and the winner could easily come from there.

I'm hoping to get out there for the main event this year. I'd be in if its $100 or less online (my online bankroll isn't large because I don't really play seriously online.

My real satellites are going on next weekend at the Borgata. Theres a $250 on sat that puts you into the $1000 game on Sunday, top 12 percent get the $12,000 package. I'm playing in the game Sunday whether I make it through the $250 or not. I think it has some of the best chances to make it.

(I'm new to this site, are there are a lot of young guys here?)

just for the record, any shitty fake idea will work. you wont be able to play tournys (fake id wont work with the tax man) but most places never ID anyone playing cash games. just dont EVER try to order even a bottle water from the cocktail waitress because its part of her job to ID young'uns.

Lol , also in Atlantic City , they hardly ever card anyone. I used a fake ID , wel I took one down there when I played at the Borgata which i must say thre card room is this shiz....but anyways I played a 6 hour session and never got carded, although I did get carded the 2nd day, and the gus at the table actually almmost blew it for me, joking around about how old I was. But she looked at me almost like she new(the dealer) and said good luck Anthony(not my real name)....maybe she thought I would tip better if I won since she let me play :)
