Year One was epic.

In Year Two, the ****show suffered a sophomore curse due to a villainous cocktail server and her hatred for money.

Will Year Three, with the rumor of a change in venue, resurrect the franchise?

Or will it leave a bad taste in the mouths of the fans?


Be there to make history happen!

This thread is for planning the adventure. Will you be there? What dates? Where are you staying? If you have ideas for props, want to room share, anything to add to the trip, put it here. Confirmations of attendees/dates/locations (if you want to share that) will be updated as needed.

Garick is currently our liaison for planning the 1/1 game, 09 June at 7pm, at the MGM Grand. We have seats for 18.

Other entertainment suggestions:

Off-Strip activity: buggies, lolguncontrol, etc.

Beer pong redux

Dinner: STRIPSTEAK @ Mandalay?
Fri night invasion of Wrathy and Skip's dinner date at Javier's

Well, ****. Now I gotta buy some piranhas to put in my pool. No worries, skippy, they're just harmless little fishies.

Barring unforeseen issues, I am IN.

Wouldn't be a Vegas Meet Up without BigSkip, amirite?

I won't lose my wallet this year tho

[x] Lives in vegas

[ ] Has shown up at the Vegas Meet Up

Come on, man! Need to see you this year. If you attend the 1/1 game I promise not to pee in your pool.

No promises about vomit though...sometimes that can't be controlled.

In. Planning to play milly. Can do 1/1 on the weds or thurs before.

My liver just served me with some legal paperwork. Apparently it is attempting to not attend with me. lol GFY liver

Exactly the same.

Will be there for8/9 days and earliest arrival date from lolstraya the weds before the Milly

Looking forward to meeting you pokero. Don't believe I'll be meeting mpethy but I live in hope

And for all of you guys who aren't sure if you want to come/not sure what to expect...just take the plunge. Both years have been a lot of fun

Rough dates that I plan to be in LV:
June 1-15
June 23-29
July 10-End of WSOP

Hoping feel wrath and I get to defend our beer pong title

I'm gonna guarantee victory right now, Randy

In for building others' BRs in the 1/1 game. Please please let's go elsewhere than mgm this year.

Planning on getting there day of last Colossus flight and staying through end of Milly

edit: just did a Kayak for 6/4-6/14 and a double room at Aria came up at $152/night on some site I never heard of (amoma.com) which seems pretty insane, single was $230

I commit that every cent I make at the 1/1 will be invested in blow and strippers that night

They have some @ Shark Reef if you need a pre-Trump stab @ destruction & mayhem.

I'm obviously in. About an 85% chance it's the next time I play poker, & about an 80% chance it's the next time I drink, so everyone come get your free $.

This year is game ON for me. For the record here, I'm open for 1/1 any day that week. Seems like so far later is better?

I'm going to spend all spring asking the question no one knows the answer too.
last year in Vegas cash games:

Coloster**** = GOAT
Milly Maker = WOAT

Will it be the same this year or will the grinder army jump to the other side all at once?

Are you just getting off work now?

No...just one of those up in the middle of the nights because small children things.

Got off @ 5 today. & left work @ 5:15. Heyooooo. Jk I wanted so bad to front & be part of the next power rankings.

I'll assume Carlos typed that 2nd part gibberish.

Quoting to book

IN!!!

I have a tiny bit o pull at teh linq if y'all wanna move the 1/1 game there. I think it is a reasonable venue for such a game (highly motivated cocktail waitresses, center strip, celebrity dealer aka the trooper)

Skwid, yoo da man!
I'm gonna cast a vote for 1/1 later in the week...gf might join up on the weekend and being in something like Tues-Sat works better for that, plus gives me an easy day to recover after. Also, in for beer pong.

FW, can I be your miami?

I'm your huckleberry.

Cocktail staff in the MGM poker room has turned over almost completely since y'all were last here, if that is the issue. It's probably better now than it was.

@pokerodox: Preferences?

Lapidatrix sez I can go!

My prediction is that the cash game situation...

Colo >>> Milly

...and those who miss it for the second year running would regret.

My vote for 1/1 nonsense is Jun 6,7,8 in that order (but will play whenever).

Location is unimportant so long as it's not downtown.

Would be up for a LLSNL HU Turbo Donkament Of Champions if it could be arranged. (Double elimination, if small number of players.)

Would be up for cook-off...

HU tournament sounds amazing

Would be tough to effect tho... not sure how to make it happen.

I was thinking 15 minute blinds starting 100bb deep. This should be solvable in under 90 minutes per match.

Alternatively, could do a couple 6MAX STSNGs during the 1/1 game (if we could get a third table for a while).

Or maybe HU 100bb freeze outs?

Bounty chips for the 1/1 game (for felting opponents)?
