World Series of Poker

I took a look at the World Series of Poker schedule this afternoon and made a tentative list of events I would be interested in playing. The WSOP starts on May 30th and ends with the Main Event on July 3rd. In that 35 day stretch, I am seriously interested in playing 21 events with a total buy-in of $56,000. I only included Pot Limit and No Limit Hold'Em events and excluded both rebuy events and the heads up championship. Still, this is probably too many events to reasonably play in and maintain my sanity. I will probably trim my schedule down to about 15-18 events total.

I also need to start thinking about lodging while in Vegas. I will likely be heading out there in mid-May as there are two WPT events in the last two weeks of May in Vegas as well. Renting a condo near the strip with high-speed internet and pool access for 6-weeks would be ideal. I'd rather not live out of a hotel room for that long. Let me know if anyone has any suggestions.

AC: Decided not to go to Atlantic City this weekend. I had to schedule a business school interview last minute for next Wednesday, which is interrupting my trip to West Palm Beach. I am going to push my Florida trip up by two days to compensate and head down there Saturday morning.

Check out Erica Siegal's condo. Maybe they still have it.
