PART III – DON’T TELL SHANNON “FORGET THE DOG”
As I walked with Shannon to the valet, one of her most persistent fans trailed us. This guy’s a big tournament player and I remember him pushing his cell number and e-mail address on her when she made the money at a WSOP event in 2006.

PART II – AREN’T LUCKY CHARMS SUPPOSED TO BE MAGICALLY DELICIOUS?
I found Shannon Elizabeth one second too late.

CHAOS AMONG THE HUNTER-GATHERERS
David, the young tournament coordinator with the untamable mop of blonde hair, didn’t realize that he had only moments to live.

When I’m at the World Series, I wish I was home. When I’m home, I wish I was at the World Series. There are a lot of different types of players in a lot of different situations at the Series. My situation is unique, but it shares elements with most of the thousands and thousands playing this year. Integrating the World Series of Poker into your life is difficult.
It’s tough to play and it’s tough not to play.

THE SMOKE & DISINFECTANT (& FELONY) INN, MACH 2
Before my self-ouster from my home for the last 1 1/7th WSOPs, I had composed an ode to its rustic charms. Now that I won’t be sharing its prostitute-strewn quarters, it’s especially appropriate that I take one last look back. Now that I have moved on, I am seeing the place in a new, harsher, light.

I have left the World Series for four days to reclaim my family. (Never mind that I spent most of today playing poker online and watching updates from the WSOP coverage.) I played the $1500 NLHE event on Saturday, played it well, but busted when my K-K ran into a set on a 9-7-3 board. Cruel irony that the Pro Tip I wrote this week is about the power of small pairs.

I did four interviews for the FULL TILT book today, including one for KENO radio at the Hooters Casino. I also picked up a new navigation system and went book shopping. And then I visited Richard Brodie for dinner and we smoked cigars after. Still, when you’re at the World Series without being AT the World Series, the day goes by so slow. I’ll play the $1500 NLHE tomorrow, then go home until Thursday. I’m returning to appear live on Lou Krieger’s and Amy Calistri’s radio show, which they broadcast from Binion’s on Thursday evenings.
But on to important news: Richard “Quiet Lion” Brodie.

Only hours before I drove to Las Vegas last week, I played one last warm-up tournament before the Series. I had been running bad in tournaments for a couple weeks and had this vain hope that I could reverse my results if I … played … just … one … more … time.

I made my first early exit from a WSOP event, my fourth, the $1500 NLHE 6-handed. Just as I was saying that moral victories of playing late and busting were wearing thin, I was introduced to the alternative. It sucks to not even have dreams of glory, even if they are often just dreams.

I busted out of the $2000 NLHE event at about 11 PM, finishing ahead of about 1300 of the 1500 entrants but, unfortunately, not in the money. The hour after the dinner break was a disaster and I went from 29,000 chips to 12,000. I picked up the blinds once and split a pot when someone called my all-in with A-T. The hand I went out on featured slowplayed aces, me making three kings, and a guy with pocket nines making a full house.
Andy Bloch busted right after me, but Clonie was doing great when I left her in the Amazon Room.
