\"\"Unlike some people, I love airports. Yes, it’s not always comfortable, the lines are huge and they make you pack and unpack ten times in a row, but it also means you are traveling somewhere exciting!<\/p>\n

A week ago I packed up and went to my base airport, Edinburgh to make my 20 hour journey to the city of chip shuffle and poker paradise – Las Vegas.<\/p>\n

The strip unfolding in front of me<\/h3>\n

I have been coming here for so many years but I always hold my breath when I’m landing and see the strip unfolding in front of me.<\/p>\n

Seeing those lights leaves me breathless for two reasons – the gorgeous view and the fact that I will be busy beyond my limits for the next three weeks. One would think that causes stress but I assure you, there is nothing that pumps my adrenalin more than being busy.<\/p>\n

Following the action, delivering information and pictures directly to the hungry readers and waking up every day trying to be original and interesting is whats it all about.<\/p>\n

Although all of these things make me wake up with a smile on my face, there is those days that stress me out and that is when I have to go to a party straight from the plane. I’m a girl, I need my hair done, my makeup… girls will understand.<\/p>\n

A fab welcome party<\/h3>\n

After hopping under a shower and quickly strapping my heels on, I had no choice but to tell my jet lag to snooze and get to THE hotel. WSOP was hosting a fab party and all of my Party Team was there. It was so great to catch up with Kara Scott and Jesse May, haven’t seen them since The Big Game<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Line of chat, line of interviews, along come Tyron Krost and Bodo Sbrzesny…. There was not much time to enjoy the amazing view from the Mix club – we had to get to the action. I only allowed myself a reward of one glass of red wine and stayed a good girl – we had a big day ahead of us.<\/p>\n

The next morning we took the boys out to the desert to do a cool photo shoot for the PartyPoker blog<\/a> that I can not wait to show and then hopped into the Mustang (yes, we’re mini baller in here) to meet our Italianos – the two Giovannis made me such a tasty lunch!<\/p>\n

Just when I was getting into all this diva treatment, I got woken up – the Main Event was about to start and there was a lot of preparation to do – making sure our qualifiers spend some nice time while in Vegas – they went sightseeing, choppering, dining… and I was there to follow the whole action. I sometimes wish WSOP<\/a>, like Christmas, lasts the whole year round. Oh, gotta go, another Party Poker Team member doubled up!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
