Let's see. Last weekend I played poker on Sunday at Cherokee Casino. It was one of their "special" tournaments..higher than usual buy-ins. I was in a tournament of 77 and finished 34th, beaten by a suckout flush over my made flush on the flop. Part of that was my fault. I bet too little after the flop, and the guy that called couldn't have put me on the flush and had many draws to make a hand. Unfortunately for me, the flush was one of them and he made it on the turn. What can you do. I knew going in if I was going to lose, I was going to take a bad beat to make it happen. Sure enough, it did.
The work week was par for the course. Had quite a few meetings, and actually had to miss one because an earlier one ran over and I had work to catch up on. I didn't miss much though. I was able to be filled in by my CFR, so that was good.
Yesterday, Anthony and I mowed most of the back lawn. It was getting dark and the mower ran out of gas, so we quit for the night. Today, I played in the same type tournament I did last Sunday. This time there were only 34 players, and I finished in 17th place. Caught KK under the gun, raised, got a caller, then someone else went all in. I knew what he had, but called anyway. Sure enough, I was facing AA. There was a 3rd caller and she had K6 suited, so I had one out. Of course, it didn't hit, the AA tripled up, and I was done. Ah well. Such is life. But now poker is out of my system for awhile, so it will keep me from getting bored with something I enjoy doing, but can't do very often due to my limited bankroll. Besides, have too many plans for Christmas shopping, so have to start saving now.
That's about it. TTFN!

Welcome to the (at times not so much) wonderful world of ME, a big steaming pile of (take your pick of words, insert here). There are times I may (try to be) funny, there are times I'm sincere. Sometimes I end up being both without even trying. But you're here, so I hope I can keep you entertained enough to come back for more.
