Lots of locals were down in Las Vegas for the World Series Circuit stop\u00a0at Planet Hollywood<\/a> over the past couple weeks. Several made it through to Day 2 of the Main Event, but nobody quite made it to the money, though some note was taken of their advance<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Baptiste Chavailliaz\u00a0came close to a second Circuit ring<\/a> in\u00a0one of the later events.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, over at the Venetian<\/a>, Jaque Lavadour and Angela Jordison were collecting bounties and making final tables in a couple of events. Steve Myers survived several crippling setbacks to take 12th in a $250 buy-in, $150K guarantee event with more than 800 entries.<\/p>\n

The Big Shot at The Game went off with a bang last weekend, filling all 80 seats, paying a guaranteed $10K to first place, and making a total prize pool of about $23K, according to reports.<\/p>\n

Deal of the Day:\u00a0LA Poker Classic<\/strong><\/p>\n

Outside of the WSOP’s summer schedule, the LAPC at Commerce Casino has to be one of the longer series of the poker year, running from mid-January to early March. In part, that’s because of the LAPC’s plethora of\u00a0big-guarantee events with low buy-ins necessitating\u00a0multiple starting days. Still, lots of individual events.<\/p>\n

LA’s just 2.5 hours away by plane, and because of the amount of traffic, if you book ahead you can easily find round-trip flights for less than $200, which makes ground transportation and accommodations the bigger part of the travel equation if you’d going down for smaller-entry-fee tournaments.<\/p>\n

\"remington\"<\/p>\n

The trophies for LAPC events are distinctive sculptures based on Frederic Remington’s Western work (not what you really think of as “LA” these days, but hey), so if you’re tired of variations on clubs and spades on your shelf, this is the one to win.<\/p>\n

Notable events in the series this year<\/a>\u00a0(all events are NLHE with single re-entry per starting day or flight unless otherwise noted):<\/p>\n
