Pretty much.

Absolutely nothing to say at the moment.  Just sitting around trying to finally kick this cold and running to Hawaiian Gardens to play some cards.   If nothing else, I get cheap food at a decent price.  Yesterday wasn't all that great, money-wise. 

I pretty much sat and treaded water for six hours.  Never had the hammer hand.  And was pretty much card dead the whole way through.  I finished up.  Not by much though.  Basically enough to cover the travel and the food.  I think in the whole time I was there, I pulled one nut hand.  And maybe had face pairs twice.  It was a slow day.  Definitely not like going in the other day and pulling nine buy-ins out after four hours. 

There's a discount buy-in on a Saturday tourney with enough hours of table play, so at least I've got that under the belt.  And winning small is definitely better than losing at all.

I've watched a lot of dumbfoundingly bad play over the past 15 hours in the room, though.  People calling even odds with a 10% chance of taking down a pot.  Flushes betting into blatant boats (two pair on board and two other people in the hand) .  Low pairs calling obvious overs.  Trips betting into four-flushes.  Makes one sit and go, "huh?"  People astound me in their ability to assume that they're better than they are.
