Pot Limit again

I find it odd that they schedule the $10,000 buy-in Pot Limit Hold'em championship on Friday June 3rd, then they follow it a week later with a $1500 buy-in Pot Limit Hold'em event.  You would think they would try to build up to the big buy-in events by having the less expensive one first.  Hmmm.I suppose they are very different in that the $10k had 249 players all with enough bankroll to fund the entry while the $1500 had 765 entries and the field had a lot of players with smaller bankrolls taking their "Shot".  The total prize pool in the $10k is over two million while the $1500 had about half that and it spreads the payouts over 70 players.

Latest update is that Lillian and Mary (my wife and daughter) are flying in Saturday.  I'm working 1 to 9 but might be able to get an early out and see them when the land.  I was able to swap a work day and get Sunday off to celebrate Mary's 21st birthday.  We have tickets to Love, the Cirque/Beatles show at the Mirage.

Now to figure out if there's any way to get Monday off.
