Right now I am playing
Right now I am playing in the second semi-final for the Party Million. The first round is ¾ of the way over, and I have just a few chips more than I started with. I took a bad beat with aces but won a few small pots to remain about even. Just like yesterday I am at a table full of clueless chumps, so hopefully I will commence to winning pots soon. I doubt I will be able to give the bad beat play by play as it happens today, since there is a $215 tournament at 10 as well. I am going to have my work cut out for me tonight, playing in 2 big tournaments, but as always I am optimistic of my chances of winning a cruise and/or a ton of money. I haven’t talked to John but he is sick of poker lately due to a bad streak so I will be flying solo. I don’t mind playing 2 limit tournaments at the same time, since you don’t really need to pay much attention. Simply playing tight and having an IQ above that of a doorknob makes you a winner in limit tournaments on Party. I did just see one interesting play, where I unfortunately mucked a winner (oh well).
