This is not intended to be a brag thread... but

I just booked my flights and accomodation for a trip to Melbourne next weekend, for the WSOP satelite we get into as part of dream team 2 membership

I must say i am pretty excited.

anyone else going ( dream team or not), and what are your plans for the weekend ?

Not me (you see how much I stress about states lol).

Good luck to you and the other members of the dream team. I know you are all excellent players and one of you will take it down :D

p.s Why not brag anyway you have something awesome to brag about.

Yeah me and Phil are going over on the 3rd, going to play hoppers crossing that night...

Not sure about the rest of the days.... I was looking at a WSOP 5k tourney on the saturday... bit of a warm up for the sunday...

Thinking we should all catch up on either the friday or saturday and have dinner or something....

Enjoy it dude, its a great trip.

Hotel room was nice too (I assume you're staying at the same place I was put in, the Hilton South Wharf?). Nothing spectacular, but comfy as pillows!

Bit different this year i think AK

we get $500 bucks on our 888 account and we make our own arangements

i am staying at the travelodge southbank (500m from the crown)

Im actually only flying in sunday morning, i have sport saturday and because im the A Grade Goal keeper in my hockey team i dont have the luxury of a simple replacement that on field players get ( the b grade keeper isnt that flash), so i will be hitting the tables hard all night sunday and flying back monday afternoon.

Not in town long enough to plan anything :( ... fly in early Sunday, staying at the Pensione Hotel (400m from crown) but leaving so unimaginably early Monday morning.

I will make a bet with you swank

if you can don the goalie gear and stand in goals with out running away for a half an hour session against my chosen strikers i will give you $200,

just to elaborate, new kevlar sticks allow for hitting speeds well over 200km nowdays, and goalie gear isnt 100% protective :(
