Taking a Break

Hello Everybody!

I am taking some time off from traveling sooooooooo much.  My granddaughter, Addyson, is two years old.  It’s time for this Grandma to help create traditions for Halloween, Thanksgiving, and Christmas.  And, yes, she is the most beautiful toddler in the world.

My next planned poker trip will be in January.  I will be playing the WPT Southern Poker Championship at the Beau Rivage Casino.  The main event starts on January 24th with plenty of great preliminary events.  Get more information at this link: http://www.worldpokertour.com.

Borgata Poker Open: WPT Main Event Quest

Thursday, September 17th, 2009

I spent last week asking a good many people if they would be playing the Borgata’s Main Event. I told anyone who would listen the vital statics of this tournament:

·         $3,500 total price

·         75 minute levels

·         Blinds start 25/25?????

·         30K starting stack

·         WPT televised event

·         Great structure

·         Two day ones

·         $2 million guaranteed

 

If they are still listening when I get to the end of my list, I remind them that the $3,500 is the lowest entry fee for a WPT main event. At this low price there will be more first time main event players pulling together the money to play.  I think the Borgata and WPT may owe me for all the free advertising.

 

I am on the plane to Atlantic City now. I will be playing ACT 1 and ACT 2 in hopes of winning my way into this awesome tournament. I am playing day 2b-Sunday. I am looking forward to seeing many of my fellow teammates at PPI. If you see me in the halls, please say Hello!  Follow my action via Twitter.

 

Come join the fun!!!

 

The Borgata Open is being held Sept 19-26 in the Exhibit Hall at the Borgata. Registration requires a My Borgata card, cash, and valid ID.  Registration open 24 hours.
