Place your bets...

I was at Canterbury Friday and Saturday nights. Game didn't go either night. From what I understand from conversations with a few different people, the game went last Saturday and was not the juice-bowl I'm accustomed to. I'm not sitting in a toughish $30/60 game--sorry. It went Wednesday and was a good game. It went on Thursday, was shorthanded most of the time, and broke early. The joint was full by the time I got down there Friday afternoon and there was no game. Today was relatively quiet for a Saturday during the tournament. Local football fans, already despondent over the moral turpitude which engulfs the Vikings' camp, presumably committed hari-kari after the Gophers' collapse against the Badgers today. Or maybe people were banking on their Powerball tickets to get them even for the year, I dunno. Anyway, the $30/60 stud/8 list had exactly three names on it today. Tomorrow's tournament is the ladies' event, so I don't imagine the game will go tomorrow, either. I think I'll see if I can't find a Macanudo-friendly bar to watch my Giants run it up on the Cowboys and then hit Boiled in Lead in the evening.

$6/12 stud/8 has been going pretty regularly, though. I should be down there next Saturday. If $30/60 is going on Thursday, I may try to make an appearance.
