Vegas, Baby!

The plan for this years WSOP is becomming increasingly clear. Last year was a great experience, so this year it will basically be the same thing, except more of it, and better!

Along with 3 other poker players from the office, we are renting a big ass house with pool, pool table, BBQ and a fast internet connection. I am staying in Vegas from the 3rd to the 19th of June, and my wife is joining me for the first week. When she leaves, I will turn down the sight seeing, and get some serious gambling started.

Between the 10th and 17th, there are relevant NL Hold'em, WSOP events almost every day, so I should be able to play at least six events unless I go deep in some of them (hopefully that won't happen). Also, there should be a rich variety of regular poker tournaments in Vegas during the WSOP period, so I will be able to satisfy my cravings for live poker, have no fear.

With the impossibly devalued US$, another craving should be satisfied this year: The rental of very fast cars is not prohibitively expensive, so that will certainly be an item on the agenda. For example, I give you the Lambo Gellardo:



That one is a little expensive though, $1800 for one day, not including insurance, so I may have to make do with just a small Ferrari. Muhahahahaaaa!!!
