    My blog is http://jongreenwaypoker.blogspot.com and I'll keep it updated daily if I have internet in my room (I'm bringing my laptop and I'd be very surprised if they don't have internet in a 5 star hotel). Hopefully I have more than a couple days to post about . Check it out! I start either the 14th or 15th but I'll be posting about the trip as well, which will be fun. I'm off to LA on the 6th and then to melbourne on the 8th, peace all! Cross your fingers

    I was just thinking about posting something about this, was wondering when it was and if you would keep us updated. GL in the Aussie.

    Damn, Jon, wondering where you stand and they don't have you listed in the mid-day updates, and no update on your blog.

    Hope you're doing well!!

    I wish I wasn't posting right now.

    I'm out.

    http://www.pokerwire.com/results.php?title=john-greenway-loses-to-3outer-and-is-eliminated&uid=25510

    I got a bad beat. I pushed in for 34,000 in late position with AJ hearts and BB called with A8. Yeah... flop comes 8 7 4. He hits 3 outer and game over.

    I still can't accept it... I feel like I'm going to puke.

    Check my blog for a little more.... http://jongreenwaypoker.blogspot.com. I'll post the rest later.

    I hate losing like that in 110th spot when top 80 pay.

    Jon is holding his own. A chip count from 11:11 pm EST shows Jon w/ 54,000. There are about 200 players remaining from the original 747, putting the average chip stack at around 75,000.

    Sorry to hear that, Jon. I read the update on your blog/pokwerwire earlier this AM. That's tough to go out an a 3-outer like that.

    Try to enjoy the rest of your time in Australia. At least you got a nice vacation out of it, and got to meet some of the pros, etc... Just think, you could be back in North America where we got lots of ice/snow over the past several days instead of 100 degree sunshine.

    Hey man,Good Luck!Hope all goes well..have a safe trip also..

  11.  

    Day 1 complete.

    Start stack: 20,000

    End stack: 31,600

    Highlight: Sucking out with AK vs Chris Ferguson's KK. He raised and I pushed, he called. I don't regret it, just bad timing he had KK. I spiked my ace.

    Check out jongreenwaypoker.blogspot.com

    I'm tired... and I am not happy with how the day went.

  12.  

    Just read your blogs. Very good reading material. Keep it up JG and keep us posted. Good luck on the felt and hope you take the whole thing down.

    hey bud, sorry, im there at nighto n the 6th and fly out on the 8th at 1130pm, but I'm there with my girlfriend and we want to see the city. I'm sure she'll be seeing me play poker enough in australia and so it wouldnt be too much for her if I was playing there too.

    No problem. If I could recommend a good restaurant while you're there - The Stinking Rose - on La Cienega. A nice chill bar is: Sky Bar. Have fun and good luck.
