Memphis00 Makes a Splash and Biloxi Trip Report

Wow!!! It's been a crazy week and I've had hardly any time for poker or blogging. I'm home now and getting settled in a little.
The trip reports from Vegas are rolling in and I am enjoying reading them. I wish I could have been there but it wasn't to be this time around. I did manage to slip away to Biloxi for a couple of days with Mrs. Surf. We played a $120 buy-in at the Beau Rivage with about 50 other folks. I went out in 16th place but Mrs. Surf managed to make the final table and finish 6th for a nice little cash. That's 4 final tables in a row for her and her record of outlasting me in every single live casino tourney we have played together continues.
Anyone considering going to Biloxi, I encourage you to go ahead and get out there. The Hard Rock is open right next to the Beau Rivage and it is awesome! The Grand is preparing to build a new casino there that the locals were saying is going to be huge and should open in 2010.
My friend Memphis00 made a big splash in his debut in The Mookie tournament last night. He had the chip lead for most of the tournament but lost a couple of big hands at the final table to go out in 9th. He has a good recount of it on his blog. Great job bro!!!

I'm heading over to Skidoo's Saturday. It should be a really fun time. I'll be meeting up with several friends I haven't seen in a while and slinging some cards around.

Have a great week everyone!!!
