No luck today at the poker tournament at the Horseshoe Tunica Casino. The crowds were large again, more than 200 in the afternoon, and a decent turnout in the evening.

In the first session, I was short-stacked and shoved with A Q and ran into aces. I played again in the evening and busted out with K-K versus J-J all in on a low-card flop. The turn was a jack eliminating me.

I did meet and play at the same table with blogger Jusdealem. It was great to see her, as usual, and we spent some time catching up on one of the breaks. She outlasted me, but also busted just short of qualifying for Sunday's final. You need some luck as well as skill obviously.

  7. Thanks again, Dave, for your comment on Florida Fotos. BTW, if you've never been to Amelia Island, it's worth the visit. Great place. You can see more of it on our website, L & L Photography (http://www.landlfotos.com) where we've posted a slide show of our visit there last June.
