Rumor has it that the ALternate has qualified for the WSOP Main Event, maybe he can confirm with the details here. If that's the case then 4th St wishes him well as always. I will be out there for something called the World Poker Tour Bellagio Cup III, but I should be able to sweat some of his action (esp. on Day 1) and bring you updates.

Al's Update
Indeed I did win a "package" to the WSOP last night. Thing is, this year a package consists of 12K and you're on your own in terms of buying into the tournament. So I'm just gonna hoard the cash and probably play in either a smaller WSOP event or play a Bellagio Cup Event and a satellite for that main event. Either way, it's the tits and thanks for the support...
My poker hero!!!

I like your plans much better than the ME... I would be looking to do the same.

smaller WSOP structures are crap... prelim Bellagio Cup events have had like 60 player fields so small prize pools and extra tough fields since all the donks are at the Rio. If you do satellite in to the Bellagio Cup III Main Event then you will have official WPT coverage all the way.
