Any idea when they are going to announce the full schedule?

For me the best event is the $5000 short handed just before the main event. Stacked with Pros, good size starting stack (5000 instead of the 1500 I played in last time), great atmosphere being so close to the main event....

I can"t wait.

p.s. If anyone hears of a online qualifier route to this event please let me know.

"Unfortunately" I have week in Vegas booked in May, so I"ll be giving the WSOP a miss this year. Unless I manage to win a seat in the main event, I"m sure my wife won"t mind me going back for 3 weeks if I"ve won it!!  ::)

If they do it the same as last year you"ll actually get 2 chips per $ of buy-in, although they knocked the bottom blind level off... The end result is appx the same structure, although it "felt" better.

I played in 2006. you got 1500 chips ($1500 buy in) and the blinds started at 25/25 then 25/50 at level 2.

I do understand the problem you face Rio, I have a non poker playing wife also and I"ve been to Vegas 5 times (twice before we met and 3 times since without her).

Sorry Des, can"t play anymore APAT events, doing housework for the next 8 months  :-\

How do you think it compared to me supporting nosey-p to the final table at the Regional last week.  ;D
