Sarah,
No, I will be staying in the Chicago area during the week, but then a bunch of us are going down to Decatur for APA singles regionals, so I may try to see some of the Viking action before the weekend (with camera in hand). By the way, did I ever get those pics of you to you? I have recently put all my photos to CD and have labeled them so they are easy to find now.
Also, I don't feel my game is that good to play in something like that when I really don't have a good chance. My game is so streaky and it really depends on how my back is doing. I have been playing in a lot of smaller tournaments especially one on Friday nights that is a round robin format where you play everyone in the house once. A few times I only had 3 or 4 loses, but I just missed the money. Yesterday, I played in a blind draw double tournament and we took second. I have also played at Cafe a few times when I didn't have to go to league, and I just missed the money again. However, I;m not saying I enjoy losing, but I had a lot of fun playing again, and it had been a while since I felt that way.
Will you be at the tournament at Chris's on Saturday, April 2? It is alternate breaks, so you won't be able to run racks on the guys.
I hope your fundraiser does well. Be sure to love what you do, otherwise it becomes hard work!
Take care,
Susie
