OK poker room is a disaster. Anyone here want to do something for dinner? I'm thinking we should get a reservation at the steakhouse or something.

[Phresh]

Probably not bringing the NES.

I'm glad you're ok Adam. SCARY.

Offering 16 tables for cash games during a tourney which has 3 day 1s is just ridiculous, and will probably stop me from making the 2 hour drive to come up there just to sit around for 6 hours waiting for a seat.

Me and gobbo fly in to buffalo at 2pm tomorrow and will arrive mid afternoon.

According to the registration [censored], you can register up to noon of whatever day you want to play, so all you [censored] who want to get in 1130 on sunday are still good to go.

I registered and I think I'm entrant #350 or so, if the numbers are being printed sequentially. also, $10842 US = $10300 CDN at the casino - you'll definitely save a few hundo converting elsewhere. or be a lazy bastard like me and not care enough to bother.

PS - I had a [censored] of a time getting in through customs - the guy asked me two questions being really [censored] snippy, and then he asked what I did for a living. Before I could respond he says, like, with a snarl on his face, "if you say you're a professional poker player I'm gonna send you right back to the US." nastiest customs agent I've ever had to deal with - the other agents that I eventually dealt with today were great.

When dealing with customs always use the AaronBeen approach. "Google my name." Or at least, that is what I'm told will work. I am by no means close to experience w/ border patrol.

I'd just like to add that randal's most recent post was made while he was in the bathroom.

Can anyone else confirm?

[gobboboy]

Have to preregister for the day though by emailing jmarch at the casino with your name/info.
