I'll be there for the whole series(have a house rented). I planning to play 9 or so events provided that I raise enough money from backers. I have like 8k commited from backers now so I should get there.

1. I'd definitely like to meet up with you.
2. I'd be happy to swap a few %s with you in events we are both if if you are interested.
3. I'd be interested in contributing to your backing too. But let's hold off on that until after the FTOPS and see just how much money I'm going to be able to say "Let It Ride!" to.

I'm game. I'll wait to figure out the final numbers (depends how many people I'm swapping with), but I think 2% is a good number...

Room booked at Harrahs, I'll be there from the 1st till the 4th for sure. I may fly in one day earlier and crash on the floor of my buddy's room at Riviera, he'll be down till Sunday playing in a North American pool tournament finals. Still waiting to buy into event #3 until Stars emails me back with the process to register using my W$.

I had planned on trying to qualify for the main event, but I'm definitely not playing that even if I win a seat for it. 10k is just way to much to drop on a donkament when I can run with the 11k cash instead. $1500 is still out of my bankroll, but I'm using that as an excuse to take a much needed vacation. Im fucking pumped right now. Can't wait to meet you guys down there.

My wife is having pitty on me for the obvious envy I feel toward everyone who is going down for the WSOP. She suggested that we go next year.

T-Minus 13 months for me!

I went ahead and registered outside of Poker Stars. I suppose I could have saved some cash and registered for Event #3 with W$, but doesn't that tie you into a contract with them, force you to wear exclusively Stars gear, and so on? Meh - no thanks.

I'm totally with you for the Main Event thing, btw. I mean, it really is something and I'm glad I played in it last year, but if you give me the option of taking $11k cash to do with whatever I please instead, I just can't justify ponying up that kind of money on ONE poker tourney. I'd rather spend $4k in side events, $2k on TEN $200 events on Stars, and still have $5k left over to do whatever I want with (like other satellites, for example). I'm just making up numbers, but you get the point.
