Missing Vegas

The WSOP starts in a couple of weeks and most of the pro poker playing population is flying out to play in it. I feel a bit gutted to be missing Vegas this year, super tempted just to fly over for a couple of weeks. I know it's not really worth it though money wise, so I've been looking at a bunch of alternatives to getting some summer tourney action...

First up FTOPS is this week, with a few cool events on the cards. Tempted to play a 6m shootout, HA and the $2.5m main event. There are a few live events on the cards too, GUKPT Scotland in Aberdeen in mid-june and the Scottish Poker Championships in Edinburgh at the end of August. Both of those events are kind of fucking dull compared to Vegas though and I know they're probably not worth the variance ride. Aberdeen instead of Vegas? FML. Will likely head down to the local casino and play a few smaller buy-in tourneys instead.

Just feels shit not flying out to Vegas at this time of year. I'm a whiney bastard right now about being in Scotland... back to the grind I guess!
