From a chunk of blurb sent out last night by WSOP Executive Director Ty Stewart....





The 2024 WSOP will take place at Horseshoe Las Vegas and Paris Las Vegas from May 28 to July 17, 2024, with the Main Event running from July 3 to July 17. The Main Event – poker’s undisputed freezeout world championship – will have four starting days, beginning on Wednesday, July 3. Players may also register directly on Day 2 on either July 4 or July 5.

The full daily event schedule for the 55th annual WSOP will be announced in early 2024. Fan favourites, including the Mystery Millions, Millionaire Maker, and the Senior’s Championship, will return to the schedule in 2024.

Are you going tk ?

60 this year for me so eligible for the super seniors!

Looks like first half of June for me for first time I think since 2009.
They have moved most of the Hilo stuff to that period this year, as well as having most start times noon or 2pm which I definitely prefer . 
Note to self though, must wait for more casino schedules before booking.  Got over excited last year and booked too soon and cost a fair % chunk to add a few more days to the trip.

Golden Nugget Series out

I’m just waiting on MGM series now before I finalise my dates.  Hoping to do 2.5-3 weeks first half of June.   Can’t decide whether to stay at Horseshoe again or similar nearby, possibly Polo Towers .

Event #3 and #30 for me
Maybe something at golden nugget
Venetian n wynn are too pricey for a donkey lol 😂

That’s me booked for 22 nights out there at the end of May. 
Super excited as lots of the type of games I enjoy to choose from while I’m out there.
Just need to cash in some as been dry couple of summers out there.
There’s a few lists of MTTs about but the best one I’ve found is poker schedule where I can filter out the no limit Holdem to see what’s on at all the different casinos daily, link below .

Good Luck

Enjoy

Almost definitely not making it this year.  Have had a horrid run up to this weekend, and somehow it was worse.  Am still in the low main but crippled late by someone who lost their mind.  Need to convert 8 bbs to a top 10 finish to get to Vegas I think.  Hopefully can run better in the next 12 months, but might just have a couple of weeks off to clear my head after SCOOP has finished. 

Good luck in your trip, can't be long to go now. Will try and keep an eye out on the reporting.  Do you have a schedule yet?

Best of luck everyone heading out, will be doing a full schedule this summer!*

*PokerGo schedule :)

“Almost definitely not” - ooooh still a chance , see you in a week 👌

I barely played scoop, too lazy .

Drove up to Gatwick today .  First mistakes of the trip.   Didn’t realise Newquay to Gatwick flights are back on with eastern airways 3 times a day, advert popped up on my feed yesterday .  Planned trip purely around hotel flight cost and buyins but didn’t even realise I was travelling up from Cornwall pm on a bank holiday Monday when all the long weekenders are heading home .  A seasoned traveller like myself should know better .

Not sure yet if will do personal updates.  Was tempted to restart the blog , start a blog here , or just post here but haven’t really made any decisions.

I’ve been excited for the last week or 2 but right now I’m just tired 😁

Thanks

It was very welcome, suffered a 2 outer after all in on the river in the main having got myself back in it with a decent stack.  Almost left the $55 in disgust. 

Won every flip to the last couple of tables obv.  Not going to Vegas, I had some bad news yesterday, so likely wouldn't have gone even if I won. 

Doobs - Sorry to hear about your bad news and that you won't make it to WSOP this year. But GL to anyone going to Vegas this year.

Has anyone been to Vegas in January. I kind of have an idea about the weather. Much more pleasant. But is the poker action dead? I guess it will pick up for superbowl in Feb. But maybe there are also some conventions in Jan. Anyone been then?

I went in January this year. Cash games were meh tbh. Not busy at all but not dead, pretty much every room had at least a table or two of $1/$3, which is what I was playing. Heading back out there 14/6-22/6 for the Monster Stack. Bucket list item ticked off!

I did write a summary TR over on another board - https://www.vegasmessageboard.com/forums/index.php?threads/get-those-cards-in-the-air-solo-live-poker-heavy-tr-1-17-1-26.205806/

Two lads from 2p2 who you may know of also went at the same time, I ended up on a table with one of them. They tend to play $2/$5 as well as $1/$3 so you might get more of an idea from their TR: https://forumserver.twoplustwo.com/108/las-vegas-lifestyle/muckpls-bigwhale-vs-vegas-01-13-01-27-a-1829943/

Do some updates please

Enjoy reading them, especially the drinking updates

I will try even it’s only sporadic, tight schedule at moment to make proper time.
I’m really chuffed that I had a complete dry day yesterday though  ;)

Any updates would be good please

Dry day...gotta be a first

Okay, thanks for the replies.  I’m writing updates for friends on messenger so figured it’s not too much extra to just post here .
So I’ve created a diary in the other section and think I’ll post a lot to keep myself as honest as I can out here .
