This is getting old....

Another Sunday qualifier this past Sunday, qualified again in a 9 person Sat Sunday morning. It was the first sat I played for the Sunday and ended up winning it. Well I learned a lesson; don't play when you've had too much to drink! Had a big party that Sunday and ended having a few too many Corona's. I played ok, but ended busting early when I made some silly mistakes. That was a good $26 lesson; at least it didn't cost me $200...

On to this week. Haven’t played at all this week and decided to play a little last night... I got into an $8 token sat (18 players put up $8 and they give the top 5 players a $26 token). I do pretty well in these and ended up picking up a token. I jumped right into a $26 token sat (18 players put up $26 or a $26 token and the top 5 players get a $75 token) and I was a bust, went out 9th. I then noticed a 9 person single table sat filling up for the Sunday WSOP tourney. I couldn't resist.

I was running well and with about 4 left my buddy Shoe sent me an IM. He was like "Hello, why you playing, were going to be at the beach all day Sunday??? You're going to be in no shape to play Sunday night!!" Ooooppps! I got heads up with the guy and at that point I had a 2 to 1 chip lead. I decided to make a deal for the seat. I asked him if he wanted the seat and he was like "Hell Ya!" I then asked what he wanted to give me for it; he said he would give my buy-in back. I said I was thinking more like $75, a fair offer. He declined and I ended busting him on the very next hand when he raised it up pre-flop with AK. I called and flopped a pair of Js. He ended up pushing, I called and that was that.

I guess I'll be taking it easy at the beach on Sunday or at least making sure I'm in better shape than last week before I start! Perhaps this could be the weekend!
