I didn't do anything for NYE this year and I also didn't play any poker yesterday but that is to be resolved today as I have a few tournaments to play in.Glad you had fun Theresa.... Layne Flack didn't show up did he?

Nick,I wish I was playing with drunk Frat boys instead of my usual crowd. It was a crazy night. I played well for the craziness that was happening. We had 2 players that were just all of the place, going all in with 9-3 off suit preflop and then taking down the pot. Of course, when I tried going all in preflop (because almost everything before the flop was called) with big slick, pocket queens, etc. I would lose the hand. My best win was 2-4 off suit in the big blind. No one raised before the flop, which was a shock, after the flop all low cards, betting went crazy and I got a full house, 4's over 2's. The crowd consisted of a tax and estate attorney (who cleaned up the most on the final hand at 9:00 AM, then 5 minutes went by and we had to start the game up again), a guy who owns a very large and successful plumbing company, a real estate agent, an exectutive for a fortune 500 company, some guy who I have no clue what he does for a living, another guy who works for a non profit organization and does not make much money at all and me. No frat boys, big fish so the fact that I was able to last all night and lose only $100.00 is pretty cool. (I made $140.00 the night before, so I broke even over the weekend, not bad in my book for a lot of fun.)Tek, Sorry you didn't get to play poker last night. though I had a blast, I think body wise, I may be paying for this for a few days. I have been trying to sleep all afternoon, but I just can't get into a good sleep. So I am going to try to stay up for a few hours and then try to go to bed around 10:00. Hopefully, that will put me back on schedule.And no, Layne did not show up. I can't believe how much talk I have created about I guy that I really know nothing about. I should be his marketing agent. Anyway, I still haven't seen the pictures... :wink: Hope you do well on your tornaments. I can't believe I am saying this but I need a break from poker for the next few days. I was going to play online tomorrow but I am going to try to avoid doing so. I need some fresh air!

theresa113 you know I was joking about the frat boy remark right? :-) . I would love to play 15 hours of poker straight. Hell who wouldn't? The longest I've played was an all-nighter that lasted 8-hours. I swear time goes by so fast and you almost feel like it was over before it started. Of course the next morning your head feels like this: :wall:

Nick... yes, I knew you were joking. I think 8 hours is long enough for playing poker. 15 was just too much. We were all so tired. We mainly played so long because we all enjoy hanging around each other. I tell you, poker can take a lot out of you. I am still feeling the effects today. I don't know how the pros do it. You have to admire their stamina. However, if you know of a group of Frat Boys in Central Fl who want to play poker with me... let me know! :wink:
