Alot of Quad's this week

Last Sunday, I got quad 8's. I had pocket 8's, and two 8's came out on the flop. That was awesome! Thursday night, I got quad K's.

A friend of mine got quad Q's, and I saw someone get quad A's on Wednesday night.

Another friend got a straight flush on Sunday.

I really hope my cards will continue to come!

On Monday night, at the finals for Fado, I came in 7th out of 85 people. I was quite pleased. I also got pocket A's twice with 10 minutes.

Last night, I played in a cash tournament, and there were 13 people left, and I got down to $1.50----and then the tide turned....and I kept tripling up. I ended up at the final table....and came in 6th. Everyone was teasing me---that they hadn't seen anyone come back from the dead, quite like that!

I realized that I really do enjoy playing tournament style vs. just playing for cash.

Some books were recommended to me this week---same book, 3 different people. I guess that is the sign about what book I am supposed to be reading, right now!
