No suitcases full of alcohol or dark endings on this story. Kayanna’s flight came in right on time and we spent Wednesday running…or so it seemed…to try and catch up with everything we needed to do and cram it into the alloted time space. We managed lunch with writer extraordinaire (yes, she has a zillion articles everywhere out there – including PokerWorks – and she is heading for Washington D.C. to cover National Poker Week for Bluff Magazine-I’m so damn happy for her because she loves politics and it’s a great opportunity to help change the evil UIGEA…sign the petition, damn it!) Jennifer Newell, which was a great ending for the summer of WSOP in my eyes…although it hadn’t wrapped yet. You can read her report here.

Heading out for parts known
Today is the start of my working vacation. I’m hitching up in about an hour, everything is tucked, stowed, and ready except for a few last minute ‘throw stuff in a dishpan and set it on the floor with a piece of slip stop underneath it. ‘ I have to tell you, not only is this stuff great for lining shelves, and putting between dishes to keep them from breaking, but if you’re ever going somewhere in an RV, set whatever you want on it and it’s like sticky glue. Nothing moves on it. The beauty of it is that when you hit your destination, just roll it up and stow it in the cabinet for the next trip. Why the dishpan? It keeps anything spillable from tipping over and making a mess.

That would be just a meandering type of thought that never goes anywhere and has no bearing on life. One of the couplas; I can’t help but wonder is why the smell of gasoline won’t leave your hands even after washing with soapy water. What? But the Steed is a diesel. Yes, but the generator in the coach is gas. Continue reading couplas

The finale of the WSOB 2009
Everything to do with this festive event is first class, the food, the planning, the party, the charity poker event, the party, the big names, the party, the prizes, the party, the fireworks, the party… I don’t believe anyone could attend and ever leaving stating that they had a bad time or it was just so-so.

Yes, I know
I know I haven’t been here and it’s been on my mind, not like fine wine or a young hot body, but on my mind. I did manage to get photos resized today and one more video uploaded to YouTube of the Howard and Suzie Lederer – with Steve Z – WSOB that I’m getting ready to upload photos to the server for so I can put up the final post. Phew! That was longer than I expected. As I prepare for the wonderful opportunity to expose the poker world to the rest of the world, I’d like to take a moment to point this out:

WSOB – The Tournament
The tournament – supposed to start at 4 p.m. – managed to kick off late…but it seemed to not be a big ordeal one way or the other. I did not plan to rebuy and did plan to play my best, which I feel I did play well, the only problem was the Card Fairy beat me to the table and also bit all the dealers behind the ear so I was doomed from the start.

This is as far as I get tonight – it’s been a long day – but… Continue reading Suzie and Howard’s WSOB
