sorry cant justify a $660- buy in for a tourney not matter the prize pool...i shat myself with a $55- buy in at the Crown!!!
what option are you taking Mickey?
mond you it is my retirement dream to play in the WSOP in vegas one day, might well be my retirement present one day

I'm playing the free tournament on monday afternoon, then the $45 re-buy event that night.
Afternoon to win the $660 seat, the night tournament is for entry ti the main event wgich i think is in april from memory. (which has a buy in of about 3k)
And have entered the Australia Day Cup. $375 to enter. 1st place upto about 10k.
Lucky for me a good day playing caribbean stud poker last week paid my entry for both[/list]

My best hands on Carribean Stud-
4 10's & an Ace- Dealer did not open!
(had $1 in, so collected $500)
3Q's & 2K's- Dealer opened (had my $ in, collected $150 on top)

I was lucky enough to get 3 Q's and 2 9's, to collect the $150 aswell, dealer actually had pair of aces, which made sure he opened

Played at the Casino the other night, first time there. Played other times, just not at the Cas. Was great!
Dealt pocket Aces at one stage.... bet all I could with 2, 5, 10 on the flop.
Some mongrel had pocket 2's and beat me.
