Starstruck

So yesterday four of us headed over to the Rio to see the day's action, and wow was it a zoo. There's also some poker expo going on so every poker site on the internet had a booth set up with tables and laptops and girls. I was there on Friday as well to finish up my registration and it was the same way. I don't care much for all of the poker hype anymore, so on Friday I registered and got the hell out of there as fast as I could. When I was there yesterday, I was there to see celebs, period. And I'm not talking about big name poker players, I was looking for the movie star types. I didn't get to see many, the only stars I recognized were Brad Garrett (from Everybody Loves Raymond) and Ron Jeremy. Quite a difference in genres. Okay, I'll mention the big name poker players I saw as well. Howard Lederer ran past me during a restroom break, and I also saw Chris Ferguson, Phil Ivey, Annie Duke, and John Juanda from a distance.

Last night was ridiculous. We had VIP at Body English in the Hard Rock. That's all I'm saying.

Man, it's gonna be a long day. Table service with two bottles for four people is taking its toll on me now. I feel I'm lacking in creative writing today, so I'll be done. I start tomorrow, and I hope I get through the first day. Time to nap. Again.
