Saturday August 26th Poker Tournament

August 16, 2006

I’m having another tourney on the 26th. I’ve learned a few lessons from the first one, plus my buddy Thumbs will be there to help keep things running smoothly with his new dealer puck…  :) .

Since he loves my plaques so much I am going to try and ensure that that’s all he gets to use. I have 20 spots and 10 have already been filled. There is a page called August 26th Poker – Reserved that has a list of attending players. It works well and I will do this for each tournament.

I also am thinking about making the Friday night games cash games so that we can finish right on time. It could still be No Limit Hold-Em, but maybe Pot Limit with a $10 buy-in? Not 100% sure on it, will talk to some peeps to work out an optimal system. There are bounty chips incoming and a birdcage, compliments of my good friend Jay-Ro, so that will definitely add flavour to Saturday’s game, as Sandro will be “under the gun” so to speak. I heard really positive feedback from all the players which made me happy cuz I want people to come out and be able to chill and have a good time.

I have a huge MBA assignment due Sunday night + a major presentation at work, so it’s been crazy over here. Ok, time to study… I’ll leave you with a pic of my buddy Lane, (bottom left shaved head) “thinking” which means he’s bluffing. Lane’s play level is directly correlated to his alcohol consumption (see tall boy, I wasn’t at his table, but I know he finished on the bubble for the final table).
