World Series of Poker Bound!

[shipitfish]

To be clear: I do not have a seat in the “main event”, the $10,000 buy-in NL HE tournament that most people think of when they first hear about the World Series of Poker. The WSoP is actually a month-long series of different tournaments, each with different buy-ins and prize pools. I am excited to announce that on Full Tilt Poker, I won a $4+.40 satellite, which got me into a $24+2 satellite. I won that (first place), which gives me a $2,000 prize package to go to Las Vegas for any of the $1,500 buy-in events (the extra $500 is for expenses).

I have no details as of yet, because I'm actually still playing right now in two different main event satellite freerolls. I'll post more later when I have more information. The news as of now: I'm making my first trip to Las Vegas as a WSoP tournament entrant!

Congratulations. That's awesome. At some point, since I'm in LA, I want to head to LV and experience some of the WSOP insanity. Maybe if I'm there while you play you'll get your own one person cheering section.

good luck!

Actually, a crowd seems to be forming. W.D. is 90% sure he's coming, and nick_marden may join if he can get away from work.
