Ive decided to go play the Prague EPT. We are flying out next sunday, and staying for 1 week. Its a good schedule, as well as the 5k main event, theres a 2k, 1k and 500 side events, and im in good tourney form, so hopeful of some sort of result.
As its a big buy in, ive sold 50% of my action, i posted a thread on boards about this , and have a great response from backers, i coulda sold well over 100%. Im happy to play for 50% myself, as its such a huge prize pool, it will still be a tremendous touch. With travel costs and hotel fees, its basically a 6k buy in tourney for me, so ive sold at €600 for 10%. I feel i have an edge over the average player in this field, so it should hopefully still represent value for investors.
Anyway, never been to prague before, so it should be nice to see, although i believe its actually quite an expensive place nowadays, not like it used to be.
Nicky Power is going, he won a seat online, so is cash game player Gavin "valor" Kelly, Mike Lacey and Nicky O Donnell are going to report, and kp is coming with me to play the omaha cash games, so theres a fair gang of us going over.
Anyone wondering about my online challenge, well , i still havent started it, been too busy with all the live play, will take it easy this week id imagine, preparing myself for Prague.
I will however be taking in the 10k gtd, €300 freezeout in the Jackpot on friday, in a bid to get the few ranking points i need to go top of the standings.
Also, the boards poll for offline player of the year should be out tomorrow, ive been nominated for that, and its always nice to do well in such things, so get your voting hats on !!
Finally, a big thank you to all of you who have supported me in my Prague mission, and hopefully i will have a nice result to bring home next week. Updates for this event will be found on most of the leading update sites, such as blondepoker and cardplayer.

That was a sick beat Rob, unlucky. You are way overdue a big score in one of these events.
