I’m off.

Going up to the Bay Area for a Planning Conference to try to get me a job, take a break from school, and possibly redeem myself at San Pablo or plunge back into the limit games of the Oaks (I know, I know).

My buddy has a home game lined up for me tonight in the South Bay, so the thought of meeting my cousin for dinner down there crossed my mind, but it turns out he’s got a home game in the East Bay. His home game sounds a lot like the ones I used to play, complete with Anaconda, Baseball, Follow the Queen, and all those crazy games. I told him about Omaha 8 last night, and he seemed intrigued.

The format for tonight will be $20 buyin .25/.50 NL, but I’ll be doing my best to increase the buy-in or reduce the blinds. I’ll also do my best to get people out to a casino afterwards. It probably won’t happen, but no one can say I didn’t try.
