Leave out the ‘Le’ and that’s the chant I used to hear from Red – one of my first poker loves – years ago in the good old Missoula MT poker daze.  I won the PokerWorks Family HORSE tournament tonight.  It was fun.  Of course it’s always more fun when you win…why is that?  I thought I was going to be 1st out.

And did I mention I only had to beat 5 other players?  LMAO.  We had a beggar come to our game, asking for who knows what, and I clicked on the chip tray to call a moderator and it wasn’t one of my options.  Does that not apply in private games?  djhomeschool told him to buzz off in a lot of different ways.  And a special note for dj – they have a new podcast up.

Grupper kindly played out all of his chips in this tournament, very much appreciated especially since it’s so difficult to play short handed with a sit out.  Thanks Goat, I love you!

PokerHack wasn’t even sure she was going to make it as she suddenly had an attack of not feeling well.  But she did and stayed ’til she busted out.  Here’s to feeling better Sis *lifts glass*.  Dave made it too, but he said that either his clock was wrong or PokerStars was.  I figure PokerStars rules the universe so why not all time pieces too.  Alexe made it too, after a long absence and the best part was my memory got booted so I could place a meeting at the WSOP a few years ago.  Nice!  We have a hike in the makings next time a Vegas trip is planned.

It’s been a horrifically long day for me and my butt’s dragging.  I didn’t have a chicken dinner with my winnings but I may soon.  As I say goodnight and skip off to Sandwoman Land, take a look at this chicken.

G’nite!
