So, it unfortunately did not go my way, I started out really good, and doubled up early on with a set of 8’s cracking pocket queens. To my disappointment, I could not keep the momentum after that hand, so I eventually busted out holding against .

Nikolaj busted out very early with a classic setup,  vs. .

Lars Bonding is, as far as I know, still in it. Go Lars!

I have compiled a little video, enjoy.

Today at noon, 450 people are meeting for the first public Dream Team Poker event, held at Caesars Palace here in Las Vegas.

Yesterday I went, together with my teammates in “The Great Danes of Pain” Lars Bonding and Nikolaj Simonsen, to the jersey and seating reception, and I must say that I was amazed by the attention the organizers managed to get to this fairly small buy in tournament ($550 pr. player). The field includes several former world champs, a herd of top name pros, as well as a lot of other well known faces.

There is one guy, that I have plans for though. His name is Phil Hellmuth, and as the title states, the plan is simple… Bad beat his ass, get him to yell at me, and then do whatever it takes to get him penalized. First of all, I have to be seated next to him, then I have to find a bad hand to play against him with, then I actually have to out flop him, then I have to get the 11 bracelet winner to donate lots of chips to me, then get him steaming. Simple right??

I will be shooting some video and taking some pictures later, and will post them on here as soon as possible.

Ohh…The other part of the plan is of course winning the whole thing

-Nikolaj

Nikolaj, Lars and myself are heading down to Caesars Palace on saturday to play the Dream Team Poker tournament. The format is simple: Become the best overall team, to win a lot of money. I just hope I get position on Phil Helmuth, and can put a massive bad beat on him early on

It looks like it is going to be lots of fun, as most of the field are celebrities and famous poker pros. So wish us luck.

On another note, my new dog Buddy is lots of fun, but being only 10 weeks old, he is already bigger than the other 2 dogs. I will post some pictures and video in the next blogs.

Have a great day!
