Recap

* Friday's murder mystery party was a blast - our team didn't win (cause we ain't smart like that!!! :) but we had a great time. I was the one who ended up being the murder victim (you'd have thought I'd be able to solve my own murder!) Matt King killed me because I was married to LT but years ago I had an affair with Becky and had a bastard love child Toby and Matt raised Toby as his own son and saw that I had willed all my fortune to Toby so Matt killed me so Toby would share his fortune with Matt (or something like that - like I said, our team didn't solve it - but that sounds pretty close).

* Saturday I played 3/6 at the Isle of Capri in Bettendorf - I can honestly say I've never played any game like it before. Every flop saw 6-8 players and nobody raised pre-flop but me the whole time I played (8 hours or so). In the first 2 hours, I was down $300 by some pretty brutal beats (AA cracked by 48o and 45o in a matter of minutes, AK beaten by 38o even with my preflop raise and hitting an Ace on the flop, and some others), but then I started winning some hands and by the time I quit, I had won back $200 of my original starting stack. Even though I lost $100 for the night, I felt pretty good about the recoup. Then I played online last night and won about $60 in a couple of hours - played some .50/1.00 limit, 1.00/2.00 limit and 1.00/2.00 limit 6-max and won at each table I played. Online poker is funny like that - some days the deck hits you all over the place, other days you can't hit a flop for the life of ya!! My cash account is up to $330, which is as high as it's been for a few weeks!!

* Illinois' basketball team sucks!! I just bought a sweet Illinois hockey Jersey on eBay, but I don't know when I'll ever be able to wear it - I'd like to wear it after a win, but that might be a while!

Today's trivia question (might be a hard one... good luck!)

Which rock band has a song beginning with the word 'Little' on each of their 6 CDs?

Tucker,
You went to a murder mystery party? Where at? I would love to attend one next time you go! I think it would be neat since I grew up watching Perry Mason (do you know who he is?) lol. Thanks for having us over for the poker game. The girls had a blast in the hot tub! When we move, we are definitely getting one!

Later Tater,
