The Celtics stink

Wow...what a disastrous showing by my Celts in game 7. Nothing to say, really, aside from "we sucked."

The weekend in Memphis was great. Very low key, just hanging out with the family, playing board games, good stuff like that. The family is all excited about my poker stuff and I had a free tournament to play on Saturday so we hooked the laptop up to output to the big screen so that they could check in and watch periodically. The tourney went well. It is hosted by Card Player magazine and it's a sweet deal--for signing up with their website and making some quality posts a few months ago, I now get to play in a monthly tournament for free that gives out real cash to the top fifty finishers. There were almost 800 players this time and I managed to crack the top 20, taking home $30 for my 17th place finish. I was happy with the way I played, especially after losing about two thirds of my stack right before one of the breaks.

Not much happening on the home front. I won another single-table tournament today and I'm almost done with Harrington's book, which has been brilliant. Other than that, just counting the days until Episode III. Yes, I'm a geek, I know...
