I won a seat in 2005 at the WSOP in Tunica through a $225 R&A. I ended up 15th for almost $21K. I been trying to get back ever since.

2006 PokerTime/prima had a WSOP Multi-event tourney. Prize pack was WSOP buyins for a year. I won my way up through the satellites starting at $11. Finals was like a $1K buyin.

I had all the right cards in the final. I was 3:1 chip leader HU. I was so nervous and needed a break that never come. Normally I'm good HU. The guy over took me, the lead jumped back and forth and the last hand he had a boat to my set. I got second for $10K. I was tickled and upset at the same time. Soooooooooo close!

I had other WSOP satellite final tables and blew it.

One of these days I'll return.

Wish I could, but no bankroll. Hope I get lucky and win one just like everyone else wants to do.

Glad to finally be in on the thread...

Having gone last year, not sure what was more fun... the parties (well the cool ones that I didn't attend), the tourny scene or just meeting online personalities that I've chatted with and played against for a long time - like Fonzi.

Oh... or almost stepping on Daniel Negreanu 10 minutes into being on the RIO property. You'd think a short, hockey fanatic would be better and working his way through the human traffic in the halls of the RIO.

No worries bud, I already secured tickets to whats going to be the best party this year. Bluff and Doyles Room rented out the Sapphire again.

Yes folks, the WSOP parties are the best part of being there

Was that the one that was clothing optional?

Wait a second, getting visual of what most poker players look like.... hmmmm, let's make that clothing required for the poker players at the party.
