Title: Recreational Fish off to fight the sharks
Post by: duncthehat on June 03, 2012, 10:19:18 PM
No bones about it, I am an amateur fish but love the challenges of Vegas so off there again on tuesday.  Definite NLH Losing player, dont pretend I am anything else in regard to NLH. Always been a mixed game specialist and have a solid game in most variants, prefer them and miss the days when there were plenty of stud / variants tourneys over here in the UK.   Working hard on my PLO and PLO8 and looking forward to fitting some of them in somewhere during the trip

Catching up with fellow blonde Redsimon about half way through.

Flying out with bracelet winner John Kabbaj and Danny Newman (playing his first WSOP since 1998 when he final tabled PLO/8).  Danny for those of you that played in the last millenium was a regular at the vic and has a pretty impressive hendon mob database, from before the moneymaker boom

My WSOP record stands at played in 1 tourney, failing to make the money by 20 places in the 1500 Horse last year, having made day 2  

However my schedule tends to be a lot more down market than those guys

Any blondes around that find themselves in the same events feel free to say hi

My provisonal schedule obviously subject to day 2s and 3s :) :

Jun 6  :  G Nugget 240 Stud8/Omaha8
Jun 7  :  Binnions 210 Stud 8/ RIO Razz STT Sats
Jun 8  :  WSOP 2500 Razz if I can sat in or sell enuff of myself  / 235 Rio NLH Deepstack
Jun 9  :  G Nugget 240 Omaha8
Jun 10 : WSOP 1000 NLH
Jun 11 : G Nugget 240 Horse
Jun 12 : G Nugget 240 Triple Stud
Jun 13 : WSOP 1500 Horse
Jun 14 : Wynn 340 NLH or Binnions 200 PLO8
Jun 15 : G Nugget 230 8 Game

early exits will mean off to the Venetian for STTs, preferred them to the WSOP STTs last year and as they give you chips you can cash out rather than lammers any winnings can be used over at the Rio :) or playing the Rio Deepstacks which get to be shovefests late on which suits me lol!!

hopefully will have some time to post a few results.

Good luck to all Blondes during the series

I remember Danny Newman well from the 90's around the Midlands, he was a very good player back then.

Best of luck to you guys over there.
