Main Event already here . . . .

Wow, did June ever flyby! I can't believe I'm sitting here and it's July 2nd already. I am excited for the Main Event, It'll be nice to play a tournament that is actually deep-stacked and has long levels (2 hours) compared to the normal 1hr levels. I'm at home in Fredericton right now, been here for the past week just hanging out with my wife and relaxing before the ME. I was already out in Vegas and I played only 5 preliminary events, and managed to have 2 cashes. The highlight was making a run in the 2.5k 6 max where I took 37th. Earlier when there were about 55 players left I had Lindgren all in with A's to his K's, obv cooler, but he had to bink a K on me when the turn card fell. That was for 100 bb's at the time, and I was still healthy afterwards but I never was able to get anything going. Ended up missing a Flush Draw to exit the tournament, oh well, hopefully all the love is in the last one!!

Half the reason I only played 5 events is because I was out golfing with my roomates most days, I was really enjoying being outside and hanging out with buddies in some sweet weather. Summer hadn't hit at home yet, and the typical Vegas heat was holding off, so it was quite nice. I imagine when I get back tomorrow though I'll get to feel the normal Vegas temperatures. I get in tomorrow in the morning and planning to hit up 18 holes of golf, then Saturday 3 of the house mates and I are going skydiving, can't wait for that. We have to all go with an instructor since it's our first time and we don't have enough time to take the course, but regardless it'll be awesome. I'm quite excited for it, and surprised it took 26 years for me to finally do it. Better late than never. Then Sunday it'll be an all day fest online, hopefully ship a major and warm up for the Main Event that awaits me on Monday. Anyway, I'm taking off here, but will shoot an update after Day 1 and will try to get to this blog thing a little more!
