Can't Stay Away

I knew that with Joe in town I was going to go up to the Hideaway to see him. Of course if I go up there, I was going to end up playing. I tried not to and just talked with Joe for about an hour, but got sucked into a $4-8 game to help get one started. I only played for about 45 minutes until that game could sustain itself and then left. $4-8 at a live casino is just so hard to figure out why people would want to play it. The rake in a full game is $3 plus a jackpot drop of $1. You can not beat that rake, or at least it is very difficult to beat that rake. I played super tight, which I think is the only way to beat that game and managed to make a whopping $28. Cool, two wins in a row. Will probably take this weekend off as well and maybe even next week. Then I will get back in the race and see what happens. I am planning two trips to Vegas in November and then December for the tournament at the Bellagio. Hope to finish the year strong. SJ
