It is going to be a great weekend in Vegas for Poker. The Bellagio WPT $25,000.00 buy in event starts in the morning. Also just to let all of you know who are driving,be careful. There will be Highway Patrol Officers in numbers along the 15 frwy because of extra traffic this weekend going to Vegas.
There is a relay race every year for policeman throughout the world and there should be around 15,000 cops in Vegas till Sunday Night.
Be Careful driving and make your dinner reservations early!
Have a great weekend all.
I'm not sure what repairs are being done to the apartment complex pool (which is about 50 inches from my bedroom window) at 8am this morning, but it sounds serious. From what I could tell auditorially, they are attempting to tunnel to middle earth using a nuclear powered pneumatic power needle. There also might be a laser-plasma wrecking ball and twelve or thirteen thousand guys shooting assault rifles at it.
The title screens for Juno and that new movie Remember Sarah Something with the guy from the show with Doogie Howser are exactly the same. Is the entertainment industry really out of ideas to such an extent that they can't even come up with original title screens anymore?

Anyway, GREAT charity golf tourney next weekend with my friend Jonathan Ogden to benefit his foundation. Maybe we can raise some funds to get Gary, Mason, Newhouse, and Sklansky to play in it as a foursome!

Guys, I haven't recorded the Phil Hellmmuth interview for this week's show yet, but he's got one hell of a stick to measure against. I just finished the Jack Binion interview (we're pre-recording both interviews to accommodate their respective busy schedules) and I may be more excited about it than any I've veer done for Wise Hand Poker Radio. Granted, I geek out over anything history-oriented, but I think people are going to learn a lot from listening to one of the truly instrumental and remarkable men of the game.
On another note, I wanted to let you know I'm putting off writing about last week's banning for a couple of days and many more. Emotions were running high on Friday, but Mason and I live in the same world and I still have hopes of it being large enough for the both of us. Sorry if that's a letdown, gossip-mongers
Thanks again to everyone who voiced their support privately and publicly. I can't say enough that it meant a lot to me. Hope you're enjoying your Sunday,
