After a full shift of work this morning I spent the morning finishing up paperwork and packing and cleaning and generally being antsy and excited about my trip. Got a few minutes sleep in the airport and another hour on the plane, then a $40 cab ride and I was in my 31st floor hotel room downtown. Well, okay, I stopped in the lobby first.
Since I was so tired I decided to get some sleep and start fresh tomorrow, but then I realized I wanted to play some friggin' POKER, so off I went. I'm staying at the Fitz, which has a 1/2 No Limit... perfect!
Most of my poker experience has been in California. I had no IDEA it was so easy out here. I may need to come here more often. I made one bad call and one suspect call, but after a few hours I was up a couple hundred. Sleep now.
When I wake, time to get Tea Leaf Green tickets and then head to the Rio for WSOP registration. Someone at my table today said he tried to sign up for Saturday's event and was told it was a $2000 buyin. The site has said $1500 all this time, so here's hoping it's not more. I'm playin' regardless, but I'd rather save that $500 for hookers and blow.

I forgot to mention... at the airport there were a few dudes with their laptops hooked up to the charging stations. They were all playing poker online.
Bring it!
Sounds like you're having a good time. I love hearing all of the latest and greatest. I'm curious why you decided to stay so far from the Rio. I know that downtown is cheaper but it's so far.
Vegas is a great place. That's why Pam and I have decided to go every few months. We went at the end of January, end of April and end of May. We'll be returning in September when it's a little cooler.
Have fun! Good luck! Keep us posted!
