Pretty boring report today, nothing much happened, Men was a good boy
again, all is right with the world.

Today was the $330 No Limit Holdem, not sure of the numbers, but
somewhere over 200.  I wasn't going to play as I was up most of the
night doing a programming project, but being a compulsive tournamite I
forked over the money and was out within three hours.  I didn't play
badly, I just didn't play well.  I got no cards and didn't steal enough
so my stack dwindled, then when I finally got something resembling a
hand, AJo, it looked like pocket aces and I raised, but had to release
it when a solid player come over the top (he showed QQ), so now I was in
bad chip shape.  The next hand I got TT, shoved it in, got called by KK,
and IGHN.  How can they call me, don't these people know who I am!!!

I spent a little while watching the new coat of paint dry (final table
of the 7 stud hi/lo) and had a very nice chat with Kathy 'bad girl'
Liebert (that's an inside joke folks, she's a very nice person), who was
there to sweat Tom McEvoy.  She can play, but as a sweater she is quite
deficient, I had to keep reminding her that Tom was raking in some more
chips, I cannot recommend her if you are looking for a sweater.

On the clock front, we have another sponsor coming up soon, and it looks
like I might have made a couple of clock sales (contrary to popular
belief, I DO have a clock, it just isn't wooden).

Tomorrow is the $330 7 Stud, I'll be sleeping.
