Playing with the Pros

On Tuesday, I was invited by the PPA to play in a 200 player poker tournament. the top 20 won something, while first place won a seat into a WSOP event. I sat at Paul Wasicka's table, and was two to his right. This is not the first time I have met him, but just like last time, he was very friendly with everyone. He answered everyone's questions, said yes to every autograph request and picture request. The tournament was a lot of fun. The structure was very fast, and I did not make it in the money. I did have a nice bluff on the river with 23 and hitting air. I showed it, and Paul gave me a big smile. I wish I had done better, but it was a very memorable experience.
