FasterSkier will be in Las Vegas from July 3 to July 6 for the Petter Northug-Marcus Hellner poker showdown and rollerski race. The pair will face off in a head-to-head poker matchup on the fourth of July, play their first day of the World Series of Poker on July 5, and then compete in the rollerski race on July 6.
FasterSkier has reserved a double room at the Stratosphere Casino and Hotel–we’re looking for someone to room with our intrepid international ski journalist Nat Herz for three nights (July 3, 4, and 5). He has promised to shower. If you’re interested, contact info[at]fasterskier.com–it’s $40 a night.

Let’s hope that Nat’s room is not next to Mr. Northug’s. Thanks to FS’s Olympic reporting we learned how hard it is to get a good night’s sleep with him for a neighbor

I just checked all the Vegas websites. No odds posted yet for the showdown!? What is going on?! Nat you need to put in a few calls to the sports books …

$40 a night? I’ll do it if you pay me $50 and I get to be the “big spoon”…
