Satuday Night Play

Today was a bit of work as I struggled to get my bankroll headed in the right direction. At one point today I was under $2! Through some hard work and a little bit of luck, I am headed to bed at $43.63. I played in a gauranteed $3000 5/.50 on UB tonight and did pretty well until this hand:

DOH!!
That sent things into a downward spiral that ended not too many hands later with my AQ meeting QQ of the chip leader. The thing that is keeping me smiling is the whole reason I played in the tourney was my buddy DNasty13 was online and said lets play. First one out owes the other 5 bucks. When I am eating a free lunch this week I will think of DNasty, Qc_Gold and Yamus who finally put me out of the tourney (and gained a healthy chip lead over second) (I finished 31/637, top 60 paid)

Time to kick the dog out of my spot in bed and clock some zzzz's. There is motorcycling to be done tomorrow!!
