Gold Star, Cash Games, and WSOP

Well, it didn't take me long to reach gold star when I got back from Europe. I now earn FPP's twice as fast, so that Porsche or Aston Martin will be mine in no time. As for my cash game play, I've played 3 times in the last 4 days for about 45 minutes each day and my results are as follows: +$87, +$224, and +$236. So I am pretty pleased with these results and it seems I can maintain about one buy-in per day. I don't have poker tracker set up on this computer, but I know I am right around +$3000 for the month and I only played 14 days so I feel pretty good about it.

Here is my WSOP schedule, basically finalized:

I have also decided that I most likely will not be playing event number 47 (5k NL 6-handed) because it isn't something I have played a lot of so I would rather save the 5k. I am playing the $1500 6-handed one though because it is cheap and I really want to play some six handed poker. If I do happen to have a decent cash, then there is a good chance I will play event 47. To fill in some of the days off that I might have, I will probably play some of the Bellagio WPT preliminary events and the Venetian tournaments but I haven't looked at those schedules yet. I leave Friday, June 1, so I will have it all figured out by then.
