Back Home

I can't believe the week long vacation is now over.

On Saturday, we left Albany and went to Foxwoods Casino to meet up with my wife's roommate from college and her husband. Foxwoods is like 3 casinos in one. It is absolutely amazing. You could spend a week there and not see/do everything. There poker room is also huge. Unfortunately, there were not running any tournaments on the weekend...just some ACT I and ACT II satellites for coupons into ACT III and a WPT event. I asked around to see if I could play the satellites and sell my coupons if I win since I had no intentions of coming back for ACT III. The general consensus was that it would be more trouble than it was worth so off to the blackjack tables we went.

Net profit from blackjack: Me - $0 Wife - $300 HOORAY!!

We had dinner at the Han Garden. Not my thing, but I lived (can you tell I am not a fan of Chinese food?).

The drive back from Connecticut was a little over 14 hours. Today I am just relaxing and playing a couple of tournaments on Full Tilt Poker. It's back to work tomorrow. Fun stuff!

Next trip: Destin, Florida on Labor Day weekend.
