Chili Party & Weekend Update


Friday was the annual chili party at Kirkpatrick's nursery and if you read Ted's report then you know it was quite a feast. I have to agree with Ted and say that the beer-battered, deep-fried striper skewers were INCREDIBLE! I ate my fill of chili, venison stew and "lizard sticks", as they call the venison skewers, and washed it down with plenty of ice cold beer. Of course some others in attendence werecertainly more focused on that menu item! Ted's ribs were superb and may just be his finest effort yet! Some of the other highlights of the evening were the firing of the potato cannon, Bill & Matt's roaring fire pit with flames that may have topped the twelve foot mark, and of course to be graced with the presence of the one and only CNN!
Saturday night saw a little poker at Hirsty's house with a small game of 6 players and I ended up with a small win after we played for just an hour or two.
On the poker front, The Trump Classic at the Taj Mahal starts this week and runs through December 16, and also in Atlantic City,the Showboat is hosting a World Series of Poker Circuit Event that starts tomorrow and runs through the 9th. Of course the hot event is in Vegas at Bellagio where the Five Diamond Classic starts tomorrow and runs through the 9th, as well.
I will most likely be playing in a few of the Trump Classic events and will try to win a seat in the $5000 buy-in main event.
