June 28 to July 3rd
Event 43, June 22nd.
Moi, aussi.
Gogie = Brian Goguen - I'll be in Vegas June 19-28
that he will be
June 28 - July 2, playing event 54 and either a deepstack or searching for fishy 2/5 cash games.
if anyone else wants to add anything please post here
Thanks Steve
Jun 26 - Jul 2
Plus a deepstack tourney on the weekend either at the Venetian or Cesars to get me primed...
Well played hard luck on the A's vs K's
anyways it looks like compuese will still be in Vegas on June 26th, and blondefish arrives the 25th, while myself, crazykoby, and blackmagicz arrive on the 26th.
Does anybody want to set a time and have a little forum get together on the 26th at the I-Bar in the Rio?
I'm heading down there on Friday and playing in:
Saturday 1500 NL
Monday 1500 NL
Main Event.. probably day 1d, if possible
I *might* play the 5K 6max, as well, not sure.

"What forms of payment are accepted?
Cash, live Casino Chips, Cashiers Check and Wire Transfers (5 day waiting period for either) and Cash Advance through an ATM (Credit Cards may be used for purchase of cash advance)."
Note that you "have to report to a border services officer amounts equal to or greater than CAN$10,000, or its equivalent in a foreign currency that you are bringing into or taking out of Canada."
Personally, if I ever decided to buy into a $10K tournament outside Canada, I would use wire transfer to pay, then I can bring more cash without being required to report.
Thanks.
blondefish I will post a new thread leter tonight with a time for the 26th and if anything changes crazykoby and myself will find you in the sat room on the 26th to let you know
Stinkyfingers aka Denis Gervais
Steven Kerr (SkinnySteve) on Twitter
I will update as much as I can about myself and other forum members when I can
So another way to pay for the Main Event would be to transfer just over U$10K to a credit card, then pay with the credit card in Las Vegas with zero interest. If I have a horrible run at the Rio and running out of cash, I can do an online transfer from my U$ chequing account to my U$ credit card, then get a cash advance for free.
Mike Webb (WSOP_MikeWebb) on Twitter
I am not sure how many updates I will do as my phone is a Blackberry supplied by work and they frown on us using it for personal reasons when we travel to the US due to roaming fees... I told them that I would pay for any personal use when I get back.
I'm actually playing the main event on the Sunday now, which I think is day 1C
Poker Pages: Major Tournament Listings
Andrew Chen from Mississauga seems to be doing pretty well over the last year with a #2 place in event #51 and 3rd place finish in EPT Prague in Dec.
Shane (11.800) and John Lawson (35,000) are part of the Red Hot invasion where around 20 members either won or bought a $1,500 seat to Event 54. When I wore their Team Canada black polo shirt on Sunday at Harrah's, tourists kept thinking I was a casino employee and asked me where the washroom is, where the WSOP shuttle is and where the poker room is!
