"Close only counts in horseshoes and slow dancing."
Earlier in the summer, during the free few days I had between when school let out and when I started my work in Teaneck, I cashed at two tournaments in Bally's in Atlantic City. Now that I had another free week after my Teaneck work was done, I went back this week.
Monday I played in the $50 tournament at 1 pm. There were 47 people, top 5 spots paid. I came in 7th.
Tuesday I played in the $50 tournament at 6 pm. There were 84 people, top 9 spots paid. We were down to 11 people, two tables. This guy on the other table and I went out simultaneously in 11th and 10th place.
Both times I was there for four hours with nothing to show for it. I'm simultaneously happy about how I played and annoyed that I didn't win anything.
I think I need to take a break from A.C. and/or poker for a little while. :)

close also counts with hand grenades
Yeah, I always heard the saying, "Close only counts in horseshoes and hand grenades". Also that one has good alliteration.
