Just a few days away

It is almost time for me to leave for Vegas. I fly out on Thursday night and get to Vegas shortly after 11 pm local time. I am going to be staying at the Treasure Island for the duration of the tourney (on Pokerstars dime). Luckily, I found out that I will be playing on Saturday (Day 1B) and not on Friday. That will give me a full day to adjust and get ready for my first day of poker. It is going to be a huge event with over 8,000 people playing. I went last year as a media rep and it was crazy then with 5,000+. I am really excited and look forward to testing my poker chops in a big tourney.

If you remember, one of my poker resolutions was to play in a major tournament this year. The other was to get better and play well. I think I accomplished both of those goals by making it to WSOP. I am playing well right now and look forward to this weekend.
