My goal for this session in the poker league was to place in the top 100 players, and be invited to play in the quarter end tournament (only open to the top 100). I'm currently 82nd, and they still have a first place, and a third place finish to record.

I have a shot at being the top player at the venue I play out of, but I was REALLY close to another guy, like a few points close, so it will all depend on how he did in the second game the other night.

It's still possible my recent first place, and third place finish won't be enough to keep me in the top 100, so Thursday would be my last shot to 'squeeze' in a last game or so. I really hope it won't come down to that, I don't think it will. But it's good to know I have a contingency plan in place.

It was funny, my first place finish the other night was almost a last place one. I had been getting reallllllllly crappy hands, and got caught bluffing a time or two. I finally got   and I just 'tilted' and said "All In".

I had three callers. Man, why did I do that. I got out of my chair, as when you have three hands to beat, it's almost a no brainer, that you're gonna be out. The flop totally missed me . I jokingly called for "runner runner" clubs.

The turn produced a , and the river , I just quadrupled up! and knocked out two opponents. I got really lucky, but it was the turnaround point of the night, I started getting really good cards, and went on to win.
