After 4h30 of road, Hugues, Aurélie and I finally got to Amnéville to discover a complex which was not expected: hotel group, cinema, ski slopes, zoo-addicted branches, circuit hikes in the forest ... in short, everything to convince you that you have done well to come.
After a night (slightly) watered with a qualified PartyPoker.fr Sofitel Luxembourg, I found pleasure Stephan and Rebecca and William Gerin Darcourt Casino at seven, before joining my room around midnight. the room we were allocated is frankly superb, but I did not have the intelligence to find where everything was located on the heating control, which resulted from a night of shit: it was within 25 °, and when you're used to a temperature closer to 18 degrees, you feel you sleep under the armpit of a bear. Brief.
I woke up around 9:00 am with the whole morning with me, but no desire to move: I was in complete coal tar, if not in the mood disaster - those who know me well know how I can be unpleasant in those moments.
So I used the morning to surf a little, read a lot ( Skin by Mo Hayder, though some know it) when the alarm of the hotel has started.
" like, well, this one is not me had not yet made " I told myself " m'enfin good, it is better than turning in Berlin."
short, a melodious voice saying in substance " This is not an exercise - following an incident inside the hotel - please win quietly exits "
Well, let's go. Come down - the stairs, I was only four floors down fortunately - it was obviously a false alarm. At the same time, it is better that a real fire, and I was at least allowed me to shake a bit before tackling the day 1A of the WPT Amnéville.
In short, if I have to summarize this day 1A: 260 players, some stars, 10 hours of gameplay interspersed with breaks for varying durations, and a real exhaustion that falls on me late in the day. Despite this, the first day of coverage for PartyPoker.fr is rather successful, even though we have many stammered at first.
The day did not lack interest, although I used to say that one day tournaments like a vast battlefield. The fact that journalists find my friends really made me happy - even if they have not failed me spoof that I wear the label of "Official media" on this one then. I saw also a lot of players who have become friends by force of the cross on the circuit. And it's good: I had stayed away from the microcosm poker since the WSOP in Las Vegas last summer, and I feel like it happened an eternity since the last time that I 'have reported a gamble. Seeing that the people do not have completely forgotten is really reassuring, especially when one knows the side of this volatile environment.
There remain four days of tournament coverage, and the rate of 16 contact hours per day poker-room, my side risk unstable quickly resurface ... but it's good to be seated back on the bench press!
