OMGWTF 2nd Place!!!

I managed to finish 2nd at Smith's Olde Bar tonight.  It was surprisingly fun to see how many different personalities were there and how easy it is to pick up on some people's habits.  While my poker game is improving, I credit the majority of the success to the fact that I didn't have anything to drink all night.   The hand that really kept me in the game and knocked out two others was pocket 9's.  It beat pocket 8's and Ace-10.  The guy who beat me won a huge hand when the 3rd place guy went out so winning would have been a long shot.  I actually got a number of good hands but couldn't manage to sucker the guy into putting any chips on the table.  Oh well.  Next week.

Yay for poker.
