Well, last night was my 3rd week of the poker league here in Austin Texas. On December 18th is the big tourney in San Angelo, TX. So I think at this point I will be going :) It was nice playing against different people and learning how to detect play styles early on in a game. I got pushed out with pocket 9's to J/10 off. Wouldn't you know it that the flop was 10-J- 10 , so unless the turn and river were 9's I was outta luck. I figured I had a shot - four of a kind 9's was very good to me a couple years ago at a casino in Louisiana when I was playing Carribbean Stud. (My $6 bet won me $900!) So as you might have figured I didn't get the 4 of a kind and was out in 4th place.
But anyway, these games have been going until close to midnight - ugh! It's nice to get out but it's way past my old lady bedtime.
I'll be out tonight way past my bedtime as I am trekking up to the local WalMart to stand in line for the XBox 360 - Hope I get at least one *fingers crossed* My kids would be so shocked (not really, as they've seen me looking at them) and they are so spoiled now that I think they are just expecting to get one - along with an the iPod nanos that all 3 of my teenagers have asked for- not to mention the cell phone and Prada purse that my 11 yr old wants. I guess she figured that once I got my Prada last month that she would be able to get one. Besides, I think they know that Santa's feeling a little generous this year.
Well, I better go drink a couple gallons of coffee or Jolt Cola to keep my tired arse awake long enough to fight traffic at WallyWorld.
