If you want to let people know you're headed to Vegas for the WSOP, please post here. I don't want 20 threads started on this. Alternatively, you can post in one of the pre-event threads (like the Event 2 thread linked to in the sticky).

I am playing in event #15 - Ladies NLH and my husband is playing in event #17. We will get to Vegas on July 7th and stay through July 13th. When we aren't playing in the WSOP we will probably be playing at the MGM. I also plan to check out the Venetian's new room.

yeeeeeah I'd like to be there sooner especially since I just sort of punted summer school. But I've got some dental work to take care of blah blah blah and I'm going to stick around for a friend's birthday before I head off.

Reviving this thread...I'll be there the 26-29th. Didn't qualify for the ME but going to play side games and see the chaos at the Rio, and looking to meet some 2p2ers. Staying at the Excalibur cause it's cheap, prob will play a lot at MGM/Bellagio. PM me if you want to meet up.

Glenn finally got his starting date today. I guess it took a while for them to process because of my transferring the seat to him instead of me.

He is the final day, 1d, July 31st. We will still, however, be arriving at MGM on July 27th for anyone who will be around. We should be hanging around the Rio and Wynn quite a bit, too, playing in cash games.

i'm leaving tomorrow the 24th and will be in vegas for at least 2 weeks. Starting day for the ME is saturday 1b. I'm also going to be playing NL mostly at the Rio and Wynn. If you see a young kid in a mets hat, it very well could be me. say whatup, I will have a drink with any 2+2er.

I'm landing on the 27th and staying for two weeks covering the main event for Gutshot. If you're from 2+2 and have done something fascinating, let me know when you see me, as I'll be scrambling around throughout the main event looking for interesting things to write about.

VangorToth, it will be easy to find me, I am the guy who is going to win the ME. On a side note, I am originally from Trumbull, small world eh.

Very cool. Make sure to stop by whatever corner they have us in and introduce yourself. Looking forward to meeting you (and anyone else from 2+2).
