This past weekend was a good weekend. It's always nice when St.Patricks day falls on a weekend.
Poker at Lou's went well Friday night. I was second in the first game and I won the second game. Making 80 bucks for the night.
Saturday My wife and I went to dinner with Chett and Katie, then we headed to McNally's pub in Oakland for the St.Patties Day festivities. We had a few brews and enjoyed the bag pipers and drummers that came through to play from time to time. It's a little hole in the wall place but it was packed and it has a lot of character. We frequent the place as often as we can get down that way and have always liked it.
Sunday I just kind of hung out for a bit. My wife took her Mom to Ikea to shop for furniture. She is moving into a new place next weekend and most of her stuff is really outdated. She was excited to be getting new furniture and to be moving to a new place. I met them for dinner later in the afternoon and then we just took it easy for the rest of the night.
Monday night poker didn't go as well. I didn't cash at all for only the second time playing at Lou's. I guess I really can't expect to win all the time.
I played in a $1 dollar tourney on Absolute on Tuesday. Out of 582 people I made it to 12th place. The cards went very cold for a very long time at the wrong time. 12th paid 27 bucks which I guess is good for a 1 dollar investment but not as nice as the $625 for first place would have been. All in all though, I played very well through out and was pleased with my play.
