shawn time 16.42.17..12.01.04
all in
Well, I think Saturday is the day.
The day I play.
This very Saturday, I will attempt to play in a poker tournament for the first time.
Gambling?!?!
Egad!
Yep, A World Poker Tour Satellite Tournament.
If I win (or even place high enough), I get a spot in the Bellagio Super Satellite, and if I win that, I get entrance into the Bellagio Five Diamond World Poker Classic. That one will be on tv. Then, if I win that I get into The World Poker Tour Championship.
Listen to me. Talking about winning at poker tournaments. I didn't even win when my church had a small poker night (church? poker? huh?). I am playing with some friends this Friday, and they will probably school me. Well, I may get whooped, but it will be fun while it lasts.
There are only 162 spots in the tournament on Saturday, so half of the day will be waiting in line just to get a spot, then the rest of the day playing cards. Hopefully I will last a little while. Maybe even win. You never know.
Yet, no one is willing to go with me. Any takers? Where is Keortge when I need him?
****update: seriously....anyone wanna go with me. it is an all day thing. gotta leave early to get signed up, play all day (hopefully). I will drive. cost a little to play in the tourney. no limit texas hold em. or, even if you just like to hang out with me at a casino all day. i will be playing cards though.
oh, and did I mention that my therapist thinks this is a good idea. :)

No P-Land for me this weekend. I'll be busy pushing Riche into his 30's.
Did you know that metzger means butcher or "meatman" in German? Funny.

And remember, Keener never won going all in with 2-3. Texas Hold 'em?

Good luck with that. My sister (sortof...long story) is getting married Saturday, so I'm out. Let me know how it goes.
