My e-Visa application asked if I had ever been convicted for a crime involving moral turpitude.
Gotta love turpitude-tube.com.

sorry to butt in, but why combine 2 with 5?
Almost no matter how luxurious the hotel room, it's not going to be appreciated if you're stuck on the laptop clicking the fold button (or whatever buttons you choose to click)
If you're combining, it would have to be 3 and 5 surely?

Vegas trip BOOKED.
June 20th - July 16th.
July 4th to July 16th is work, the period prior to that is all playyyyyyyyyyy
Not playing WSOP ME ?
I'm in late-stage dither on that, probably 30/70 not to, though on reflection, 40-60 to play. Probably 45/60.
The ME falls during my "work" period. Sky Poker are paying for the work trip, & have been exceptionally good, & fair, to me, so it'd be a bit rich to accept their annual Vegas Freebie & then ask for a day off. Or two or more days off....
So probably not, but as I say, still dithering.
I dither a lot these days.
Isn't it going to be a lot tougher for you to follow the VLV guys this year? So isn't there going to be a chance you end up not doing much during the actual playing bits of the ME for the VLV peeps due to the restrictions from the WSOP organisers, but of course during the breaks you could chat to them all? And with several day ones isn't there a chance for a free day with no VLV to big up and follow? And wouldn't Tikay at the ME really be a fun feature?
Just saying.

totally agree. IMO random Sky players will be far more interested in TK playing the WSOP ME than a random package qualifer.

I'm sort of having a day or two's break, or rest, today & tomorrow, & have sorted a few personal bits & bobs.
I now have to go & get 2 rear tyres, (one each side.....) bugger. Dare not leave it any longer, just noticed they are "grinning", whoops.
Tonight, I shall mostly be doing whatever I fancy.
The current selection seems to be.....
1) Go to "The Vic" & play the £300.
2) Stay in, & play the £110 "Sky Roller" on Sky Poker.
3) Do something naughty.
4) Do nothing.
5) Treat myself to stay somewhere posh tonight.
6) Go to G-Luton.
3 is a non-runner (sell-by date probs), & 4 is not an option, 6 is highly unlikely.
I'm off for an urgent dither now.
Dont forget No. 7
TPC Sawgrass is an option.

Following a massive uproar, they then said they were reviewing this.

Found this on 2+2 - were you playing in this game Tikay?
Also, it's a shame newspapers don't read like this any more.

Superb!
A story which has not changed much in 90 years, either, witness the Gutshot prosecution a few years back.
