Poker is
sexy!!! You only have to visit the poker lifestyle show,
much more fun that watching 2000 players sit down with 10k in chips, to see the
proof. If Doyle hired 100 girls then Bodog must have 120. Some wear short
skirts some walk around in their underwear, some are just bodypainted.
The lifestyle show is in its second year and is a welcome diversion
from chip counting and watching the exit door for eliminations. Of course, the
"elimination" might just be off to the restroom rather than be 1999th in line
at breaktime.
The online poker sites have the big budgets so they have
prime acreage in the huge room. Small business with 20 sq ft stalls tend to be
in corners away from all the noise. In fact, we had a marching band walk
through the room this afternoon an unusual site for Vegas.
Another
unusual site was a huge explosion at a propane store around 6pm. The resulting
fire is still burning and the road to Utah is closed. (Keeps the Mormons out of
Vegas for the weekend) Cindy Margolis, Pamela Anderson (rumoured to be
getting married this weekend) and for the ladies (maybe) Ron Jeremy (porn star
if you didn't know) all have attended the show.
Today wasn't a big star
day. Snookers Steve Davis, looking much older than I remember him, played and
lost. James Garner is the epitomy of old but he has
entered his first WSOP main event. We have a nun on a poker
run too.
Despite having four Day 1 Harrahs also accepted alternates
today. Well they couldn't refuse all that extra money, could they?
