Nice job mookie. I am playing ridonkulously lately, but still a fun time. See you next week.
I was done with the tournament soon as I found out that I got your bounty! That was a horrible suckout against you but I will take the win anyway I can get it.
Is it a card protector? I really need one of those since I have started playing live every week.
This was my first Mookie tournament and I have to say it is a great time.
Thanks for coming out Chris….
Guin, nice run tonight…be sure to email me your address so I can send the bounty…
Great game again mookie. I would like to place better than 30th next time tho. I did have a nice poker evening tho starting with your tourny and ending with a nice SnG win.
I had a good time as always! Thanks again for putting out such a great tourney. I’m sorry you got the bubble this week. I know how crappy that feels. And, thank you again for letting me freeroll this week.

Congrats on the SNG win darval.
Actually I was double bubble…oh well, there is always next week…thanks again to everyone for coming out to play. We had a blast.
I signed up, but then had to drop out. I’m travelling and the hotel had crappy internet service. I didn’t want to put my table mates through the nonsense of me disconnecting every hand.
Hate I missed it, but I’ll hit the next one…
Congrats to Surf…he is the man!
No problem Trip, thanks for trying. See you at the next one.
You forgot to mention the horrible suckout vs my hammer for the bubble!! I had fun, see you next week.
Oh yeah…that was pretty bad. You will find that as the tournament progresses I tend to forget, mess up, etc. certain events…this is due to the Dos XX consumption.
