WSOP day 1; battle of the babes by Texter

So far I've had two good beats, the airport didn't lose my luggage and the line for taxis was real short. Unfortunately, we've had two bad beats...our interview with Isabelle Mercier got postponed; PokerStars had to move their courtesy suite due to some dental convention plus our interview with Joe Sebok and Gavin Smith got postponed as well!

On my way to the Rio from the incredibly crappy Gold Coast (it's right across Flamingo from the Rio) I heard more bad beat stories in 10 minutes than an entire year online. Also, who do these hotels think their kidding...not washing towels for the environment...yeah right.

The World Series is even crazier than last year, all the big poker rooms have suites with free food, free drinks and free crap. The dichotomy of hospitality babes is pretty interesting. The Full-Tilt babes are all italian with big boobs, the ultimatebet babes are all paris hilton clones, the doyle's rooms girls are all country style with cowboy hats and shorts and the bodog babes are so busty the hindenberug is jealous.

The suites are all pretty swank...but the bodog and full tilt ones take first prize, there are leather sofas and an open bar. The bodog one looks like a fancy nightclub but it's harder to get a drink there.

The bathroom situation is infinitely better with port-o-johns out the back of the Rio next to the milwaukees best tent....a guy is telling his bad beat story as I type...his AK suited lost to a straight on the river (welcome to vegas).

To all you guys I promised some free poker shirts and stuff...they're on the way...they are giving away all kinds of crap. We're headed out to the "Naked Poker" party at the Rio in a couple hours.

I'll see you tomorrow for Day #2.
