jeannie picked up her new bike from rei and we took it out for her first spin on the mt. vernon trail. great report, no accidents and all signs look good for a great season of many miles of biking. (3 miles on the mt. vernon trail)

links to some casinos

holdem tourneys we could make...

found this tourney info on the poker player newspaper website

also the taj info from pokerplayernewspaper is incorrect, below is the info gather by phone

I just called the Taj, and that website is bogus. Here's the actual schedule:
Thursday 6:15 PM (can't make it)
There's no midnight Thursday tournament.
Friday 10:15 AM $80 + $20
There's no noon Friday tourney.
Friday 6:15 PM $225
So it'll be $100....ouch.
They sya that there are plenty of structured games like 2/4, etc. As well as no-limit with $1 and $2 blinds. Also, they have one-table "sit and go" tournaments where the players usually buy-in for $65 dollars, and the winnner takes all ($500).
