WCOOP event #4, Vacation coming

So I won a seat to the triple draw tournament in the WCOOP. It was another one of those wild rides that i've talked about in tournament poker. Surprisingly, this is only my second satellite i've played for a direct buy-in. I plan on playing a couple more and maybe trying to get into one of the other events. The main event this year has a ridiculous guaranteed prize pool. I guess it's worth a shot.

Since we bought our house this year, our only REAL vacation will be next week when we spend 4 days in Ft. Lauderdale. The first night I will get to check out the new and improved FL poker scene, and donk around a bit at there $1/2 NL tables. They changed their laws down there so there can be big bet poker, but the max-buyin's are only $100. We'll see how that goes. I've heard mixed results. Regardless, hopefully we won't see any hurricanes and we'll get to spend some time in the sun and have some cocktails. You know, escaping reality!
