Oh yeah, I did win some cash playing Texas Hold'em at Matt's graduation. At first I didn't want to play...like always, but then I gave in to peer pressure and I didn't want to be a poor sport at Matt's graduation party! Matt did win the first tourney though...I was still half awake from the lack of sleep the night before. Second round came around, I started to regain my conciousness after a few soda and meetballs (yummm...). First half of the second tourney, I played my hands conservatively and let all the veteran players dish it out against each others and in turn eliminating each others one by one. I survived 'til the latter half and that's when Son the aggressor comes out to play! I did feel bad for going up against Matt's grandma and aunt though. They are like triple my age! But nonetheless very good poker players! It's so funny how Matt's grandma was so fishing us with her pocket rockets at one of the hands. Anyhow, I ended up eliminating most of the players left at the latter half of the tourney round except for Angelic's dad. It got dark and we were becoming increasingly weary after the long rounds of battle. So we decided to end up splitting the pot straight down the middle toward the end instead of continuing on to see who comes first and second. So once again, Son comes out victorious!

I remember vividly the night when we all were over at his parents' house for our high school graduation 5 years ago and spent the night. Wow and that was about 5 years ago. That's quick!

Anyways, time to get back to writing my other papers that are due sometimes this week.

Here is the link to my Flickr account where I've uploaded most of the pictures that were taken at Matt's graduation party. The rest of them, I'm still waiting for Omar to send it to me whenever he decides to transfer them to his computer from his digital camera.
