Playing World Series of Poker Main Event Today

The last couple of days have been cool. On the fourth we rented a cabana at Hard Rock drinking way too much and having a really good time. Afterwards, Zach Clark and Marco Johnson hosted a barbecue that I very vaguely remember. Yesterday was Sunday so we decided to fire up the online tournaments. It marked the first time I'd played online tournaments since May 31, so it was a pretty weird feeling sitting in front of the computer and not at the tables at Rio. An 8th place finish in the UltimateBet $500 tournament and like a 23rd place finish in the $200 rebuy on Stars were enough to pull me to a slight winner on the day. Today I'm playing the World Series of Poker Main Event. This is Day 1d, the final of the 4 starting days of the tournament. It looks like after today's 3000ish players the total number of entrants will be 6600ish players, which is somewhat surprisingly high in my opinion. This is such a big, long tournament that you just have to take things one level at a time and mostly just pray that you run like God. This is the most exciting tournament of the year to play, so I'll definitely be ready to go. I've also made some investments in other players in this event. It would be really sick if that would pan out. If interested, you can get (bi)hourly updates on my status by following my twitter at www.twitter.com/shannonshorr. I'll be in the Brasilia room today at the Rio at Table 158 Seat 8. SS
