    Snow?

    I can't really confirm it but snow was reported in Northern WI over the weekend. Put your snow tires on.

    Go get 'em Monkey Man!

    The downside of my handle is that there are absolutely no songs containing the word "gronbog" :rolleyes:

    Blown Away

    Very few BJT'ers survived the quarterfinal rounds. I wasn't there, I took off as soon as I was done. In my own quarterfinal round I got run over by opponents' big bet 2:1 blackjacks in the last few hands. By the second-last hand I needed to win two max bets to be in contention on the last hand. Got A-9 vs 3, doubled and got the ten. But then the dealer drew out to 21 and it was time for me to hit the road.

    I heard later that Angelrun got on the final table, as did Doug, one of MrPill's crew. Neither of them won it, though.

    As usual, had a great time with LeftNut, BillyC, and the gang.

    Knocked Out of First Round (x2)

    Even with two tries I did not make it to the second round. Second try I missed by $5! I had a miscount on my own $5 chips! Oh well, next time I'll pay better attention! :(

    Angelrun took 7th and my buddy Doug took 4th! Congratulations!

    Congratulations indeed! Two final tables in a row for Angelrun at Kewadin events -- very impressive!

    2013 events

    Kewadin's tourney calendar is very similar to last years. August event (St. Ignace) has been moved to last weekend in July but that's about the only difference.

    Not This Time

    The next time you'll see me will probably be this summer at St Ignace.

    Best of luck and opportunities for skilled play to all!

    No can do

    Afraid I can't make it this time. Work responsibilities. DRSLYR won't be there, either, for similar reasons.

    Good Luck
    and Great Cards to all of my BJT friends! It's long overdue for one of us to take this thing down. GO GET 'EM!!!!!

    Most of our BJT friends who will be at Iggy this weekend are likely on the road as I write this.
    Please remember to post updates for us poor souls who couldn't be there this time.
    Good luck to one and all!!!!

    Had Fun

    No bjt'ers got to the money but MrPill, BillyC and yours truly got to the semifinal. A husband and wife team took 6th and 7th...

    jonny21

    Our jonny21's daughter also made it to the semis in her first ever tournament. Impressive girl that was not at all intimidated and displayed a disciplined game throughout.
    She also won the drawing for free entry into the next event at this venue.

    A great time in St Ignace as usual

    It was fun to visit with old tournament buddies, play some of that good pit blackjack and those 9-6 VP dinosaurs in the bar ! Too bad that those last semifinal hands kept some of our regulars here off the final table.

    Soo

    The "Soo" is now accepting entrants for June 7-9th tourney. Seems like they cap this one at around 110 people so don't wait too long if you plan to play this one.
