Blondites and WSOP 2006

[Royal Flush]

we are staying at Caesers, I believe that it is close to the Rio ?

Vegas is quite small, its still a taxi ride though, especially in the summer!!

The Rio is off the strip so all the strip hotels are a taxi ride.

[The Dundonian]

The hotels look like they are back to back on the map I have, I think I just havent got my head around how big these places really are !!

It's a taxi ANYWHERE in Vegas. Even from across the road to the Rio, you need a taxi. The scale of locations such as The Rio is such that you are never as near as you think. Taxis are cheap, & easy to get.

And the temperature in Vegas last July was 45c - that is HOT, so hot it takes your breath away, because the sun reflects off the ground, & even walking 100 yards is unbearable.

[The Baron]

Tikay is correct. The day we flew home it was 45 degrees C. They even had warnings on TV for the old people not to go out for long periods of time. No wonder I only saw tikay indoors.

With this years event going on through August it will be ridiculously hot.

[tikay]

Do NOT underestimate the heat in Vegas, & it's a very dry heat, too. 45c is HOT. I kid you not.

Then, when you reach the sanctuary of the Hotels, & merciful shade, they have the aircon on SO cold that you need a jumper. But not one like Robert's. Please.

OK, here's the deal.

The Rookie wins the opening event, & gets us a nice suite at The Rio.

Brian, are you good enough?

The wsop in 2006 will be the best party ever, and I will win another event w/out a doubt

DC and myself still managed a round of golf in that heat, what a

The first Blonde to bust someone out with  should have all their drinks bought for them by the others.

Just out of curiosity how much do you guys think it would cost to just be there for 2 weeks?

I wont play any events (unless i can spawn a satellite seat) but would like it to be a nice hoiday and meet you guys and soak up the atmosphere,  would play a few small small tourneys or sit n go's

I booked for a flying visit in march last week.  Virgin had a sale on, no sure if still on but cheapest direct flights Ive got in 10 years of going - only £300 which is a bargain and connecting flights are a 'mare

I''be there at some stage too

I plan to play the 1st two events. I will have the cash to buy stright in but if i win a couple of sats for these i will enter more. This of course if my bankroll dont take a big hit by then.

For anyone who's even average at cash games....

They are SOFT. THEE best value cash games are in Vegas. If you don't believe me ask Junior. I saw him make a grand in like an hour at $2-$5 NL I kid you not.

If you play well you can enter more events as the series moves on. That's what I did anyway.

[The Dundonian]

Will there be sats for each tourney the day before in the Rio ?
Are there any intrenet sites that do sats for competitions outside the main event ?
