So, my friend Tim and I met up with Zybomb last night. The three of us went to the UB Party, which was much bigger than last year's. The VooDoo Lounge on top of the Rio is pretty cool, but I think I preferred the smaller venue at the Palms last year (I didn't even see Phil Hellmuth this year, let alone get to bust his chops). They had an open bar for us, and a sweet spread of food too - from fancy schmancy finger foods to a turkey and pork carving station to a huge desert table.
Eventually, we met up with my friends the Stolzman's, and the group of us hung out for a while and kicked back some drinks. I also traded 4% of myself in the Main Event with Steve for 2% of him and 2% of his son, John. We hung out until a bit after midnight, but then Tim's back started bothering him (he was in a car wreck last week - got rear ended by a guy doing like 35 and eating), so we called it a night. The plan for today is to head over to the Rio and check out the Poker Expo thing some more, and the Main Event of course, and then meet up with Zy, 2Tone and lightfungus tonight. It's 11:15 here now, so I guess the Main Event is under way! Wow... I can't wait to see what the final numbers are going to be. Alternates??? Oh my - this could make for some long Day 1s. |

Im hoping the 4% I give them ends up being worth a lot more...
 And yes, John won a WPT Event (Tunica) for about $1.6 million in 2005. It's a GREAT episode if you missed it. He's at a STACKED table (Grinder, Negreanu, Chau Giang, Scooty Nguyen) and a huge underdog, but he played great and pulled it off. |

A few of the things I've seen seem to imply that the ".com' restriction is because of them not being able to advertise onling gaming sites on TV. Since TalkingPoker.com doesn't offer online gaming, you might be okay and not need your tape!
Of course that relies on someone there knowing the rules and being able to intelligently apply them. |
