• 2008 Melbourne Poker Championships

  Juli 26, 2008

  We have just concluded the 2008 Melbourne Poker Championships down here in wet and cold Victoria. After reporting, blogging and taking photos for a total of 9 days at around 12 to 15 hours a day, it seems as though I'm ready for working at the WSOP this year; instead of playing like I did in 2007.

  With not much on the horizon, I really wanted to be part of the team this year, and with the help of Heath Chick (tassiedevil and/or aardvark to some of you) who coordinated the PokerNews team, he was able to organise a spot for me on the team in Las Vegas through Garry Gates.

  However with the WSOP starting in less then a week, and with nothing organised besides the guarentee of 4 days of work a week while I'm there from Garry, what are the realistic chances of me leaving the miserable weather of Melbourne for the gambling mecca of sunny Las Vegas?

  Here is a list I have compiled; which if satisfied means that I'll be on my way to WSOP 2008:
  - organise frequent flyer points flights
  - confirm accomodation with fellow reporters and Melbournian's
  - probably need to round-up some extra dosh before I head over, so I ain't living from paycheck to paycheck
  - tie-up all loose ends down here

  Well, thats all I can come up with at the moment, but stay tuned to hear what else gets placed in my path.
