Speaking of pali, anyone know what happened to him- I haven't seen him in months and never did find out if he ever put up the video recordings of last year's HPI main event.
Would still love to watch moments like...

"LOL, you mad, bro"

My reaction to the ladden thinks question about number of hairs

Hard to believe that was 8 months ago! Seems like yesterday. So many good times had. Hopefully Pali will be able to continue to be one of the people with a 100% attendance record and make it for 14.

Also now that CPC is up and running. Any thoughts to a commemorative chip?

Fo sho. Not sure if CPC can get it in, since it'll be a small order and they're gonna be swamped for a while. I was also going to talk to Joe @ PGI about a ceramic commem.

Try talking with Jim as he was more than accommodating last time for me despite there being a time crunch.

Last I talked to Pali was the end of October. He was doing fine, just busy working. Between a long commute and 2+2 being blocked at the new job, he just didn't have time to get online.

He said he was still interested in coming down this summer. I'll ping him and see if that's still true.

As long as we're at the range, you're fine - just don't bring it to the poker table.

Let's talk food.

For Thursday night's limit game/beerfest/screening, I'll probably cook something easy like pulled pork sandwiches for dinner. We can also order pizza later if that runs out, but I'll make plenty.

I figure we'll be out and about on Friday so we'll probably just stop somewhere local for lunch. I'll be ordering dinner in on Friday, get sandwiches and stuff for Saturday lunch, and then order dinner in for Saturday night.

I'm probably going to get 4 Rivers BBQ one night - it's the best BBQ in Orlando hands down. I'm not sure what to do the other night, so I'm open to suggestions.

Adrian can't come for the whole weekend, but we might be able to squeeze his work schedule to fly out for Friday night/Saturday.

Sounds like you are having pork BBQ, then some pork BBQ.

But what right do I have, judging your menu?

Does he play, or is he just tagging along for the food, beer, movies and company?

He would probably play some $1/$2 mixed limit games. I'm going to try to get him to play the tournament but he loathes no limit.

Sounds like a great time, but the timing is really bad -- getting away from work will be difficult. I'll let you know if anything changes.

Looks like my buddy Jason will definitely be joining me on the trip. This has the added benefit of him traveling a lot for work and having more Starwoods reward points than he can spend, so the hotel is covered.

The current plan is to be down there starting Thursday, but that's contingent on my wife being able to swap her Thursday and Friday shifts. But she's confident she can with this much lead time.
