Just got back to my hotel. I was a little disappointed in the reception. Spoke with Chris Ferguson and Barry Greenstein for a few minutes. Saw Annie Duke, Howard Lederer, Chris Moneymaker, Andy Block and Sen Demato. After 30 min, Demato gave a short speak and then they made an annoucement about a special event and all the pros left. Not sure if they were having a dinner, but the room went dead after that. Spoke with a couple other on line players from KY, WA, and CA. My congressman won't meet with me, so there isn't much left for me to do. Came to DC on business, so it's no big deal. Just would have preferred that some of the pros stuck around and chatted with those of us that took the time to show up. Was hoping a a poker game might happened, but it didn't. So back to room for some online. Not sure I will go to the Wed night reception at the Rayburn. Thought some of you that couldn't attend would like the report. Later
