I am hoping the name of the tournament is an omen for me. Last night I did not play the $335.00 multi-rebuy event. However 411 people did play and they had 525 re-buys and 129 add ons making first place a very nice 80,000.

I did play a satellite and ended up chopping it,so I have my buy in $225.00 for tonight and $335.00 for Tuesday Night.

I am hoping its heavenly for me!! I am really making good reads and if I can survive some unusual play by others, I should have a great next two days.

I am going to take a break after Tuesday and work some overtime because I am going on Vacation for 2 weeks in July and I am planning on attending the WSOP in the next few weeks. Mainly as a spectator,but I am going to play some satellites and I am already registered in the Senior's Event.

Congratulations to my friend Luis Concha who won the Bicycle Casino's Free roll event yesterday. It was for all the players who had played so many hours in cash games and the Bike put up a 15,000 prize pool.

The final Table of 10 made a deal because the blinds had grown to the 12,000-6,000 limit and since it was free money no one really wanted to have to pay Uncle Sam anything. Smart move guy's!

I have been enjoying reading about the WSOP decision to play the Final Table in November. Some excellent points have been made by so many. I have even read some blogs by famous players who are against it and they lay out their reasoning very well. I am sure there is going to be a lot more debates over the next few months regarding this issue.

Take Care all ...Be Safe..
