Title: WSOP bound
Post by: Kingcha on June 03, 2014, 11:01:26 PM
After backing out 2 years in a row I am finally going to play in the World Series of Poker - The Senior Event.  50 and over.

Leaving tomorrow and will play a small tourney on Thursday and then the Senior Event on Friday.  Should be 4500+ players in the event so if I survive it will be grueling.     

Depending on how long We/I last we have a number of back up tournaments to play.    6 days of tournament poker then I will be back sawing more flooring.

2 things off my bucket list now

I have often wondered if it is bad luck to get too many things off the bucket list. Poker is cards right?

Yes John it was Texas holdem.

Unfortunately I did not make the money.   I had a lot of fun though.   They had about 4435 player.   We had one from our group cash.

I did manage to cash in a smaller poker tournament today.

Now back home tomorrow to mill some lumber.
