So I get in this morning at 12:45. See one tourney online starting at 1am for 10+1. Ah, what the hell, I have an hour or so to kill..... Well, 3 1/2 hours later I turned the 11 into 213. 79 total players.



Now I have to be at my son's baseball game in 6 hours

Hey Don do you watch the WPT? I like watching that stuff its funny what the players say to each other. Some of them are huge babies though.

Congrats on the win!

nice... I have won live ones at the casino but not online yet but have paid for my drag slics and other race car parts with poker winnings from on line tourneys. Nice thing about winning live ones is you walk out the front door with a nice roll of cash.

WOW, not the response I expected from you stangs......LOL

Dana, yes, I'm watching Doyle on WPT at the moment actually. I like the ESPN series and WPT. The celebrity crap is garbage though.

Last night I didn't expect to win, just play for an hour or so. After my nap today (getting old....) I'm glad it worked out as it did!

stangs, one thing I have really noticed is Poker is played MUCH differently in person. MUCH more bluffs, calling stations etc. I play a lot of online 5/10 and do VERY well. I don't have a lot of extra cash to play big tourneys or real high limit so I get in the local card rooms tourney Tuesdays for $50 per seat with no rebuys and usually 75 people. I've done fairly well so far. I've finished in the money online a few times and in person twice.
