on to day 2... chip vacuum at work!

Well day 2 of the main event WPT festa al lago starts today... day 1a went really well for me on monday. starting stack was 45k... and i managed to finish the day with 145,500... i think im prolly about 9th in chips out of the remaining 260 or so players. Its such a deep structured tournament tho so still A LONG way to go. Day 1A was pretty crazy for me... I got to play with some of the best in the world... at my first table was Jennifer Harman (probably the best woman to ever play poker)... i got moved fairly quickly which kind of sucked cuz it was a pretty decent table draw.... but i had taken like 35k off the huge fish at my table so that was nice. I got moved to Antonio Esfandari's table (my favorite player). He's a really nice guy and I have talked to him a bunch of times before. We started playing a prop bet game called "Lodden thinks" which was a ton of fun. You and one guy think up any question that can have a numerical answer to it and then pick one person at the table to think up what THEY THINK the answer is to the question. Then you chinese auction back and forth till u have an over under and then whoever loses pays the winner. Tons of fun... o btw Antonio finished the day with a MASSIVE CHIPLEAD... he has like 313k 2nd has like 205k... gross.

I decided im going to stay in Vegas and play the Caesars Classic which is right after the WPT. Instead of travelling like 18 hours to EPT budapest which is the same time (just for one tourney). Ill be coming home as soon as I bust the Caesars main event. Alright well good luck to me on this day 2... hoping for a good table draw. later guys
