The World Oilmen’s Poker Tournament “WOPT” 2012 at the Wynn and Encore Las Vegas

This was my 5th year photographing the WOPT tournament in Las Vegas and each year I have had an even BETTER time, if that was even possible!  Basically, Cornerstone Acquisitions knows how to throw a fabulous party and show their clients a luxurious time. These guys are “working and networking” the entire time, which basically translates to:  playing golf, poker, have fantastic catered meals, private comedy shows and cabanas by the pool at Surrender, pool time, helicopter rides into the Grand Canyon and not to mention their own hospitality suite basically 24 hours a day…which means non-stop drinking and I get to come and “document” it all.  It’s a tough job, but someone has to do it!:)

My favorite part of this year’s WOPT tournament is that out of 175 players, only 5 I think were women, and one of them swept the entire tournament!  So against all odds a woman won, not that I am a feminist, but she made me proud:)  And of course our private comedy show by Jay Mohr….so far, I think he is my favorite!
