WSOP Thoughts

Seem to have hit a fairly lazy stage lately and since Sunday hardly played except for 2-3hours easlier on 2,4$NL. Managed a sound profit of around $300 playing 2-4 tables, thought i might venture back to the tables tonight but so far just aint been in the mood.

Not long now till Las Vegas (11 days) and its close enough that i struggle to focus on much else. Mansion have more or less confirmed i will get my 1st choice main event day of 1B so i should be playing on Saturday 5th July and hopefully beyond. Looked at the event structure again today for the 2nd time. Despite a double starting stack its not too much different with blinds more or less double for the first few levels. I will hopefully get a good table draw, but generally i think i will be looking at playing more flops first 1-3 levels and if i havent increased my starting stack, gambling more in levels 3-6. Last year i remained nicely above the average stack until a few day 3 hiccups and i know how valuable a larger stack can be if obtained early enough more so than ever these days. Whatever happens its bound to be more valuable experience which hopefully i can build on again, i really really wanna go deep but im not going to put any pressure on myself to do so as i know thats not the way. Got a new mp3 player this week and also got my initial currency sorted. Bring it on and lets have some fun, also looking forward to catching up with a few mates out there i havent seen since previous events. Provided the free wireless internet works properly in the hotel i will probably post on here at least once a day with updates anyway.
