Got Here

Flew out to London and stayed over till Saturday morning then flew out to Ohio took 8 hours.
got through security no problems then spent 3 hours there before catching 4 hour flight to vegas.
Was 112 when i landed at 7pm so its pretty hot but everywhere is air conditioned.
when i got to hotel at 9pm i felt to tired to gamble (dont think 30
+ hours without sleep would help decision making) so went to sleep , woke up after 4am grabbed a coffee then went a wander round the rio its a pretty impressive hotel.
Went through my final wsop registration and have my ticket so redy to go.
Hit the cash tables for a feel of things at 7am $2-$5 NL HE and won a quick $115 , 1st hand i won 67 suited in the big bling called 2xbb raise flop came 427 rainbow i bet $25 and as i was short stack (only sat with $100 to get a feel for it)he put me all in and i had no trouble calling on that flop heads up to an aggressive player who was raising everything pre flop sure enough he had 7/5 offsuit and my hand held up then won another $50 with 88 scary flop a56 but it was checked turn 9 i made a small bet, which was called river:8 i made another small bet as i was scared by the straight draw he called with pair of 6s so good start.

Going to do some shopping now and head to the strip and maybe play some at the bellagio or caesars.
Thanks for reading and i will update when possible.

Hi ya m8,

Good to hear you arrived safely. Playing cashgames at 7 o'clock in the morning sounds very very good :D Also nice to have a good start off course!

Getting close now! Keep regulating (we will do for you too in a couple of hours...) Gl tomorrow!

No Vegas trip is complete without hitting up the clubs. Check out Drai's, Pure, N9NE, Ra. If you get bored don't forget to check out the ladies at Spearmint Rhino either. When you are at Bellagio check at the main room. The stakes are insane. Good luck, hope you bring home a bracelet.
