Yay to possible WSOP circuit events in a couple years!
Not that the local Nautica stuff was fun, but I think bigger games might happen...A temporary casino site should should open early 2012.

WSOP schedule was released!
I'm excited on the likelihood of the WSOP 1.5k PLO8 event (6/30).
The other casinos (GN/Binion's) likely will have PLO8 events too...

Unfortunately, the 8 game/10 game is too early in the year. Maybe the VDS (or Aria or Bellagio) will come through with a small-medium stakes 7/8/10 game.

Sadly, I also will get burned on the Harrah's point expiration. My last day in AC was 12/18/2010, and I'm not projecting to be in LV until 6/23/2011.

Online Updates

Online MTT updates.
FTP multientry tournaments are pretty epic. I wish i knew before i had to make 75k purchase as that would have weighted my purchases differently.

The "multi-entry" technology is pretty easy to do - it was already done with the introduction of rush poker, but they "waited a year" to maximize the business benefit.

I'm excited about the FTOPS, but do not really have any time to play any of the MTTs. Perhaps time will be better for mini-FTOPS. I might stay up late to play 10-game in the future ($100+9 rather than the $1000+60)...

Online Cash Games:
I think I'm leaking fairly badly in PLO8 (and PLO/NLHE). Is this mainly variance? Very unlikely... I think I'm just firing barrels w/o accurately putting villains on ranges.
PLO8 - seems to happen especially on high only boards where i tend to fire multiple barrels even though it's obvious villain never folds...
PLO - I should probably lessen # of cbets in 3b pots.
NLHE - I think I'm way too aggro and kind of forgetting to "put people on ranges"...
