Last night was awesome! After work, I went out to play in the Badger Poker series and ended up playing almost 6 straight hours of poker, with just a few 5 minute breaks in it. I held the chip lead for about half of the night. I hit a huge rush early, then slumped for a while, and eventually pulled out some great plays to get the chip lead on the final table. A few hands really didn't go my way, and I did eventually get eliminated...but it was in second place! WOOT! Besides an evening of entertainment, I got a free T shirt, sweatshirt, and a $20 gift certificate to the Dry Bean. And after finishing play at almost midnight, I had to go home and try to get some sleep before my 7:00AM shift today. Yeah, that was real easy falling asleep when I was that keyed up. Oh, well. For some reason, I'm really not complaining. 8-)
