2019 WSOP


Flew in last night and registered for seniors tournament today.  Met at airport by my lifelong buddy Don who drove here from Phoenix.  Standing in line was right behind Tri City player Tony Simpson who was there with Clark Watkins....out playing satellite.  Spoke briefly then to hotel to rest up for the big day.  Sent text to my old Seattle buddy Jim to connect sometime.  Looking for the Cannon Beach crew as well. 

One random act of kindness yesterday when a guy in power scooter registering heard me talk about how i needed water stat.  He reached in basket and gave me a bottle.  Good karma for him.

I wish you the best of luck. I know you can go deep in this tournament. Good luck to Don too.

Horrible luck in the tournament, out after 3 1/2 hours. Started with kings cracked by 3/5, he rivered straight despite heavy betting and raising by me. No draws of mine came in, several flush and straight and combos. Final hand Q/A raises, I shove with A/A, monkey in the middle calls with 8/8. He flops set and leaves me drawing to 1 outer.

Ouch that's just gross. I'm so sorry. Hope you stay for a little while though and have some fun. Maybe play a satellite?

Good luck!!!!!
