takes a back seat when money is concerned.

and where are you going to get that dough? hustlin' and bustin' on the go, shootin' pool is the way to go.

finished in the money tonight. in the fourth, got my $7 entrance fee back. not much i know, but it's the best finish i've ever had on kelly mccue's monday nights.

well, you finished ahead of kirk, that's for sure (footnote: kirk is the plaid shirt donning, short shorts wearin', playin' pool in the morning hustlin' poker at night jack ass that everyone appears to agree)

finished behind vick (the stoic asian middle-ager, likes combo shots, doesn't say much and doesn't play with much flair, but leaves his game on the table, lost 4-1) and richard (the avuncular white middle-ager with a beard, full of annoying after-shot one-liners, will miss shots on purpose to give you some leeway if he sees fit, lost 3-1). a solid 4th place if i've ever had one considering that vick and dick were fighting for 2nd and 3rd place when i took off. doug (the coordinator of the tournament, seems to be a nice enough guy, claims to have a son in uc hastings law school, somehow dubious ((prejudicial to the extreme on my part)) considering the omnipresent brown bag at his side) seems to think that i should beat richard handily. i dunno, richard gives me weight to be sure. at least doug gave me some easy 'caps on some earlier matches.

biatch, make way for fast cho.
