Headed to the World Series of Poker and update

26 06 2009

I haven’t posted in ages and I’m sorry.  I’ll be updating here as well as on Twitter (follow me via connellh).  Those updates will also appear in the upper right box of this blog.

I’d like to post these here but for now… recent travels to:

The plan:
I fly to Vegas today and will be working all the way until I land. My very good friend Rob Pepper is there already and other friend – Erick – will be out tonight.  We are staying at Planet Hollywood Friday and Saturday together. I’m hoping to his the Rio quickly and try to fit in a satellite for tomorrow’s $1500 event. I plan on playing in it regardless.  Then Erick, Rob, and I are going to PARTY… although I need to make sure I’m not terribly hungover for Saturday….. water, alka-seltzer both evening and morning…. I’ll be good to go.  Then Saturdat at noon, the event starts….. I hope to survive the day but we’ll just have to see. If I bust out, then here we come again Vegas…..

Erick stays until Monday or Tuesday, Rob has to leave Sunday afternoon.  I’ll be playing cash and tournaments at the WSOP, Venetian (Deep Stack Extravaganza), and the Bellagio (WPT event going on there!) for the next 2-3 weeks and we’ll see how things go. I’m hoping for the best but you can’t predict the cards.

Until then……
