Wowzers!
Enjoy it, sir. A lot harder to get that kind of time off when you're at work
See you out there.

Going EDC?
had a look for tickets and seem to be sold out? Not sure really if i wanna go or not think i may just pick some club nights with people i wanna see rather than cooking outside!
Do many people tend to go? Is it worth it might go for a day or something!
You going?

Last year, a few of the bigger names had D
J sets at various places elsewhere in the week either side, but you're at the mercy of luck as to whether you find something you want.
The first sight of the festival goers, wandering around the strip in the morning wearing nothing but a shocking pink tutu, body glitter, neon green facepaint and novelty sunglasses is one of those seminal Vegas moments. If you're a young lad, it's engaging. If you're an eighty year old prude, all you can think is "what would her poor mother say?!"

No need to be rude about Tikay. He may actually enjoy spending time with me you never know
If you see me wandering around the strip in a pink TUTU please dont take a picture.

Sadly, I was talking about me
The prude bit; not the tutu

Good luck in Vegas. You'll love every minute.

5 weeks to go for me! 9 days left of uni then 3 or so weeks to generate some funds!! exciting times.
Not had the best few weeks poker wise and the vegas fund has taken a big hit but thats poker and ive got time to turn things around! Luckily there is something for everyone out there at WSOP time and although i may not be bale to play $300+ comps every day im sure i can mix and match something up to try and win my fortune!
Probably should win a scoop this week that would help!

So just under 4 weeks to go now! 27 days in fact. Not fully sure of what im going to play at the minute while im out there.
Any advice for comps from people? What is the schedule at the Rio like for buy ins $200-$400 range. Was looking at PH and they have a daily $200 i think at 11 im hoping to play a comp most days in this buy in range and then maybe play 1 or 2 $1ks and have a day off comps the day before them. We will see need to get it sorted so i can put up a package, but going to worry about that after university is all said and done.
I can not wait im so excited for this trip its unbelievable. On the eve of my final university exam its still all i can think about! Must stop and get through this first! People from blonde that i have not met IRL or have but are not close friends feel free to add me on facebook/send me your skype/number on pm and we can get in touch if you are out there for some drinks/meals/nights out!

Think the PH tourneys were supposedly very bad, but Allan Kessler has worked through them with the cardroom manager, and it is now 'Chainsaw approved'
In short, supposedly it has the best structure of any 1 day tournament on the strip.
The Rio has their daily deepstack comps, which get massive fields, and can return a decent amount for a relatively small outlay.
$235 Buy-In No-Limit Hold'em tournaments nightly at 3 PM.
$185 Buy-In No-Limit Hold'em tournaments nightly at 6 PM.
$135 Buy-In No-Limit Hold'em tournaments nightly at 10 PM.
This has everything else nicely compiled by a good 2p2er
https://bitly.com/WSOP2014
The only 2 bigger buyins I'll be playing are the WSOP $1.5k 'monster stack' (15k/1hr) on the 26th June, and the Nugget $1.1k (30k/1hr) on the 2nd July.
Good luck with the exam!

So one week to go, this time next week ill be on the plane to Vegas and i am so so excited! Not got all my hotels sorted and im kinda go for a suck it and see method depending on how well im doing will depend on where im staying. I will be starting bowl and hoping to work my way up, we will see how that goes! I will start blogging some of my prep from about Friday once im done with work this week and im really looking forward to opening this up again properly.
If anyone is out there at the same time and wants a meet up, drink, night out etc please let me know as im going on my lonesome but know of loads of people out there at this time. People always say are you alright with being on your own im like yeah its perfect i can decide what i want to do and when! But it would be nice to have some company on nights out.
Anyway poker stuff my plans are a mix of everything, daily comps, cash and my bigger comps which ive put together a package on the staking forum for thouse that have not seen it its here.
http://blondepoker.com/forum/index.php?topic=63844.0
anyway until next Friday hope you have a good week and good luck to anyone already out there!

this will be the other side of the coin patrick to your dairy.
Went out, smart priced bacardi breezers, bowl steaks, bricked a comp. And rinse and repeat.
