Get drunk and play where's waldo.
I'm not sure I can get drunk off of non alcoholic beverages, but I'll try just for you........:biglaugh:

Yeah you can walk but in case you haven't noticed it's hot. Granted it's a dry heat and your used to Alabammy wet heat, I would still take a cab. Be careful walking down the strip alone. You'll get bombarded with little porn/escort services flyers from non english speaking people.

What hotel are you staying at. Take your laptop so can update us all. WiFi is available but most will charge you for it per 24 hours. For shits and giggles, take a look in the "Entertainment" section of the yellow pages.
Well, I am going for entertainment Ken...............:naughty:

Good luck man, I would love to get in the Main Event some day, but 10k and that many damn people. One bad hand or mistake early and your ass is gone.

My advice, while it's obvious you know what you are doing. I'd play more consertative at the start and just try to study the people at the table. Fold, fold, fold. Try to protect your blinds and get in cheap pots. I know I wouldn't be chasing many cards because it could get expensive. Get your money in the pot when you have the best hand and pray you get a little luck.
The only reason, I may not play tooooo conservative at the start is because nobody wants to go broke the first day, so I plan on exploiting that if I get the chance. I don't plan on playing ultra loose, but I also don't plan on having it in "double secret probation lock down mode either".......:biglaugh:

I also don't plan on playing a lot of 7, 8 suited like I do at the home game. I generally pick up a lot of pocket pairs, so I'll be looking to flop a set and get paid.

Go git um JAY!!!!! You are going to take home the gold for sure, they don't know how much you win at the local games!!!
Yeah, I doubt many of the locals in Vegas have heard of me yet, but they're going too..........:evil2:
I'm still trying out this whole power of positive thinking stuff.

I bought a book today written by Daniel Negraneau and it is pretty interesting so I'll probably have it finished by tomorrow. I bought it to read on the plane and now it's about done. I'm going to buy another book to take on the trip with me. I'm going to find some book on positive thinking so I don't even let myself think about losing.

I like him a lot also, but a guy that works for me asked me to slap him if I seen him. I don't see how you can't like him. He's extremely nice to everyone and just like to have a good time.
I may end up having to bitch slap Phil Helmuth though if he calls me stupid.

He wont call you stupid, he'll call you a donkey when you suck out on the river and bust him the first hand.

"If it wasn't for luck...I'd win them all"
-The Brat...aka 'the assh*le' aka 'nobody likes me'

I don't have a problem with Negreanu, he is always real friendly and never starts anything with anyone. He is the type of guy anyone could hang out with - atleast that is what you see when he is at the poker table. Real laid back guy that just likes to enjoy what he enjoys.

Seriously though, if you see Allen Cunningham...get his autograph and I'll pay you for it.:icon_bigg
