Day off

Wow it is hot - my summer black is not working for me. Oye!!!

Putzed around all day. A little cash. Up A quick satellite for the WSOP tomorrow - down but fun.

My pals Brenda and Tammy went deep in Venetian. Congrats!

Walked the strip. Always live it - albeit I am melted but excellent weight loss program.

Now at Aria for 7:00 pm tourney. Should be fun. Low pressure. Keeps me out of trouble.

Thanks for everyone's great notes. Much appreciated.

Running good in life - cards? Meh....

Ok - so overall awesome day thanks to my encounter with Daniel Negreanu.

Cards wise - had fun but was crushed in deep tourney and crushed at cash by one guy. He either rivered his draw (2x) with all the money in - or he would just out flop me 2 pr versus his better 2 pr. Decided it was not profitable to grind tonight. 7 more days to make it up.

Playing At the legendary Binions tomorrow in a women's event with my Pals Sonja and Tammy. Looking forward to that...and then my 1500$ WSOP on Tuesday. Can't wait. Might as well get my bad run out now so I can run like a god on Tuesday. :-)

Heat is amazing. Lungs still not 100% but getting there.:-)

Day 2 - Venetian

Well - I was out in possibly record speed for me on a deepstacks. Lol kept running into really big hands when I had only big hands. Kept getting away but then out. Meh. Walking strip- hot hot hot. Happy lungs.

Playing 4:00 pm deepstack I think. Or napping. Or cash. So many options.

Keep running into great Calgary folks- Tammy-Dale. Too fun.

Is it weird that I am showing my photo with Daniel N. to anyone who even just catches my eye on the street?

Hmmm mm- weird is all about perception.

Location:Las Vegas

And felted - happily by DN

He is all in blind - I call. He hit 8. Lol

And out....

Flopped top 2 KQ - 3 way. Chips go in on turn. Seat 1 flopped a set of sevens on board of kq7.

Played well- a little unlucky.

But looking forward to next one.

World Series of Poker Experience 2011

Hi Folks,

I am heading to Las Vegas this week after chopping 2nd place in a private poker series in Calgary. I will be playing 2 tournaments with my winnings - sharing the proceeds 60/40 with the rest of the group. I will play likely one more tourney on my own dime.

Staying at the Rio - home of the WSOP. I am expecting to see several of my poker pals down there. Meaghan flys down on the 1st for the weekend.

After 2.5 weeks of some weird lung affliction and getting mostly caught up on my work - I am ready to go!!!

You can follow here if you are interested or on twitter @ang_gelinas.

I am so excited to be playing. 5 years ago I thought the WSOP was something other people played in - now off I go!!! Now it is time to Run Good!
