Awww, nice addition to the bankroll regardless

thanks - for all those who weren't watching:

5th place.

nice, congrats. How much?

nice score man. I miss all the tourney summaries you used to do. You barely come around anymore it seems.

Been busy. My frequency here is directly related to the amount of poker I've been playing. In other words - I've been taking a bit of a break from poker somewhat.

This tournament was a total of 515 hands. I want to go through it all, and post a report about it - but things are so busy these days - I'm just not sure I'll get the chance. I have earmarked it though - so hopefully it will be coming soon.

Also, I've been playing the tournament (usually anyway) about 1-2 times per week and Friday is almost a guaranteed appearance. If you ever feel like saying hi - please feel free.
