Do you get the feeling that it is always poker season? In the online gambling world there is always one gambling tournament or another, so how can one say that poker season is finally here? Probably because the World Series of Poker is just around the corner and there is no better gambling game around! The 2006 World Series of Poker begins in late June, and the poker community is building a head of steam as we zoom toward our annual world championships.
Every major online gambling site is running satellite tournaments whose winners will receive an entry to the WSOP Main Event. Most casinos, including local ones, are also holding WSOP qualifiers. Poker rooms all over the world are buzzing with excitement as players ask each other, "Are you going?" I'm going, that's for sure. After last year, my first time, I wouldn't miss it for anything. With more than 40 different events held over a six-week period, it's the vortex of everything poker.
I still haven't won my entry into the Main Event (the $10,000 price tag makes winning, not buying, a necessity), but I am slugging away, still hopeful. However, per the game plan I've had all year, I will pay my way into the Ladies and Seniors events. In any case, this coming weekend, I will be limbering up for the WSOP when I head to Caesars Palace for the LIPS Tournament of Champions, and the LIPS Grand Championship Open. I am playing my best tournament poker right now, and feel really good about making it into the money in at least one, if not both, competitions. If the gambling gods are in the least bit kind, I'll have a winning story to tell. | |
