Thanks again. I may not be home in time this weekend...it's still up in the air...a friend asked me to help her train a horse for trail riding but I haven't heard yet whether she still wants to do it this weekend or not.

If I'm there then I guess we will know the answer, and if not, best of luck to all

I'm assuming you figured it out. Just remember that the Nordica clock is off by an hour for EDT.

It was nice to see Fictive and powrdragn (I assume that's who Dew was) today. I think fictive played very well but picked a bad spot to try and take the pot from SixEleven... as Six had just flopped trips.

I had a run of cards like you would not believe. I had AQ at least a dozen times if I had it once during that game. And a ton of pocket pairs (most small but still). But when it finally got heads up... I went card-dead. And that is when SixEleven started hitting pocket Aces on me (he had them twice in like 4 hands). I managed to escape the first time but went broke the second time.

Overall, it was a good game from everyone.

Unfortuantely, no, I was not on. I was away from home handling some business and I was unable to sign-up and download the software in time

Wish I could have broken away a little while sooner though.

lol... I guess dew was dew... from the OP. Somehow I missed that name and just assumed it was powr because he posted in here and that was the only name I couldn't place.

Sorry you missed it man. It was a good game. Hopefully there will be another time.

Wow frob... If you had a hell of a run with cards, I had the exact opposite. Picked up exactly 3 good hands: AA that I managed to take out lady, 77 on a flop of AQrag and got raised, and AJ when it was obvious on the flop that that I was behind on that JQsomething board. The final hand I was 100% sure that if (whoever it was) didn't hit the trips, he would've definetely folded. Well, he hit... Out again on the bubble. But it was fun anyways.
