Fremont is suburban? LOL

Thanks everyone for coming. It was a great turnout and I think everyone had a good time again.

I am especially pleased that we had the sets of games going with players going in and out of each of them with three different sets of chips and we we had zero problems with the cash outs.

I guess twoplustwoers are good at math.

I especially want to thank the chumps at the 2-3 a50 NL cash game for being so easy and letting me run over you with my gutshots and suited overcards en route to an $1,000 upswing.

I also want to thank Lyric and DJ and Garland for donating $25 a piece after I had already cashed out to a hot/cold lottery.

Sorry for the hit and run, but I am a sucker for game selection and I know my limitations. Plus, I start bluffing too much when there are homemade waffles around.

Thanks all, and we will do it again sometime this summer.

Add your own highlights here!

No highlights here [img]/images/graemlins/mad.gif[/img] unless you count having QQ vs K8 on a 456 board, running (and losing )it twice vs Lyric. Followed that up by paying off his only real hand of the night for another stack. One thing's for sure I was definitely out of my league...but enjoyed it nonetheless.

[Mr_Oog]

Thanks again Soss!

Great time. Bummed I was too full to eat a waffle.

Still trying to figure out if I should be offended or not that JFK thought I was such a nut peddler he let go of top set to my CR on a two tone flop. AND he dropped AQ to my steal in the tourney. Dang man, how am I supposed to get paid off when you do that?

Look forward to next time.

Oh, and live Stud games are way boring. Learned that most definitely.

Highlight: Grinding out a $40 profit in the NLHE cash game.

Lowlights: Losing it, and the rest of my stack, in two hands - first my turned straight to a rivered boat, then my pocket Jacks to a rivered flush.

Highlight: Losing money much more slowly at pineapple, until SossMan the bully sat in and started open-raising the $1 big blind to $20.

i wish i could have made it. i was out of town [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

[KurtSF]

Wish I could have made it too. Next time, then.

Oh, and I know a couple rooms in downtown SF that can hold 2 or 3 poker tables and can be had for ~$100 a night, DOA. Pro: downtown SF! Con: no midnight waffles! If there's interest in a central/neutral location next time let me know and I'll scrounge up the details.

Peace.

I am not so sure about a room being described as Dead on Arrival...
