I am Going to Vegas

Man I am so stoked, I just finalized my reservations today.

I fly out Friday June 29 at 8:30am and arrive in Vegas at 10:45 vegas time.

I plan to play in Binions Poker Classic on June 29 in the 2pm $150 No Limit Hold'em Event.

Then I am going to play in the WSOP No Limit Hold'em $1500 Event #49.

Hopefully I do well.

Anyone have any advice on playing in the WSOP as this will be the biggest tourny I have ever played in.

The tournament area for the WSOP is a huge room and has no poker atmosphere. I found myself rubbernecking right and left during the tournament I played in and didn't concentrate enough on the game.

My advise is do your best to shut everything out other than what is happening at your table.

Good luck!
