...best laid plans...

often go awry...

I'm leaving for Vegas in less than 48 hours. My original plan included playing in Saturday's event #3 (the $1.5k NLHE large field televised event). The last few days have thrown a wrench in those plans as I have not been able to sleep for the last few days (averaging less than 3 hours of sleep per night). Due to travel plans and scheduling, tonight will be deciding factor. If I can get in a good solid night's rest, I intend to register for event #3 when I arrive on Friday. Otherwise, I will utilize the time to rest and put in some cash game hours. (I may bank some hours in at the Wynn to take advantage of the $100k freeroll)

I'm about 75% sure (mostly depending on availability - either due to being still in an MTT or exhausted from cash game or more likely lack of sleep), I'll enroll in the split pot bracelet events (events 5 and 9). I will likely pass on the NLHE rebuy event.

The over/under for the number of WSOP events I'll play on this particular trip is 3.

I sincerely hope that my game/MTT selection stays level headed during the trip and that I don't start making very bad meta-choices due to exhaustion or tilt. I imagine, from an EV perspective, this will be the most significant factor for this trip....
