Hi Shaz,

Thanks, but Mr Channing is not here. Pretty sure he's at home eulogising over the Boris palaver.

What a day it was yesterday, the most dramatic & exciting day in UK politics in my lifetime. I was busy working all day at SPT Vegas, but I could not resist keep peeking at BBC News every 10 minutes & watching the resignations keep coming. The time difference is a bugger, but I awoke this morning to the news, so a good start to the day.

Thanks boo & Vinni.

I paid in on Tuesday night, & that in itself was a bit of a drama.

I was about an hour into a 3 hour queue when Simon Trumper gestured me to follow him as he knew a "secret" buy-in desk where here was no queue. I was a tad reluctant to give up my place in Queue # 1 but went with it. We walked though Ballys into Paris, left & right & all sorts & then came to the smaller queue, & it's true, it was only about 50 yards long. But it only had one window open...

So I stood there for 5 minutes, grateful to Simon for his attempted help, but somewhat frustrated that I was no better off.

And then he did it again.

Psst, follow me tikay....

And we ended up at a window which said STT & Satellite Buy-Ins ONLY, but Simon had slipped the guy $10 & so I got my seat.


God bless Trumper.

I guess Seat 1 is not so bad. We play 7 handed & so I was hoping for Seat 4, but Seat 1 is not a bad 2nd choice & I should be able to see the board cards reasonably well.

It's been a decent trip so far. Sky have put me up in a suite in Palazzo. For someone like me this is sheer luxury.

I rented a car over the weekend & went up to the Spring Mountains. God, it's so lovely up there.

I'd requested a "Compact" & they gave me this. Smaller than expected, but just fine, & only $60 per day. When I took it back the lovely Hertz Lady asked me if it was OK, & I said yes, perfectly lovely. And she shot back, "yes, I knew that was exactly the right car for someone of your age".

Bitch.

Re. Politics and Channing: I could barely believe my ears when hearing the Betfair next PM market being discussed on BBC News today!

Best of luck later Tony - I'm hoping for a long squeeze tomorrow morning choc-a-bloc with tales of derring-do and ripped arseholes.

VBOL Sir.

Focus on the cards and table. Dont worry about updates. Will look forward to see how you get on whilst on my morning coffee, before jetting off to....Blackpool. Yeah, who is jealous now?

Enjoy.

I spotted this on my travels, proper Lorry Porn. Bet booder would love to have driven one of these. If I return in another life, I want to drive one of these for a living.

I needed to dust off my Limit O8 cobwebs so spent two days playing $4 - $8 Limit 08 or Better. SO much fun. They play in $1 chips - & ONLY $1 chips, so you pull up a couple of hundo & sit there with a huge stack in front of you. Bloody loved it.

Sobering thought - The Orleans had 25 (TWENTY FIVE) tables of Limit Cash open, most of them 08.

It's easy to find the $4 $8 Limit 08 tables, just look for all the zimmer frames & wheelchairs. Lady next to me had to change her oxygen bottle every two hours. The wait lists were monsta, but generally speaking the occupants tend to expire at regular intervals so a seat soon become available.
